What if BioShock had been developed in the style of an old-school 2D adventure game? Flash developer Norman von Scott decided to explore that alternate reality with the gorgeous hand-animated Prairie Dogging.
It’s being hosted by 1UP. The site commissioned the game from Scott, who is known for his “Hsu and Chan” comic that ran in Electronic Gaming Monthly. 1UP tells us this game is mainly a test to see how readers respond to the concept of Flash games based on popular games; if it goes over well, the site will commission more, but future entries probably won’t be BioShock themed.
The game is entirely controlled with the arrow keys and mouse. If you played adventure games from studios like LucasArts and Sierra back in the 90s, you’ll feel right at home.

That was AMAZING! I would TOTALLY play a full version of this.
righteousmight | March 11, 2011 2:01 am
More fun than what I’ve had with some apparently “AAA” titles lately.
drgonzo | March 11, 2011 4:08 am
Aww man I hope there is a part 2! Funny stuff!
durandan | March 12, 2011 12:34 am
That was a great way to spend five minutes. It even got me to chuckle.
anatoly | March 12, 2011 12:46 pm
More more !
mf9000 | March 12, 2011 8:09 pm
Has anybody else had difficulty in getting the game to work? I have the latest version of flash, but I can’t get any movement when I use the arrow keys. Looks cool, now if I could only play it.
jendon | March 12, 2011 11:17 pm
Nice!!
magicmaker | March 13, 2011 7:23 am

alycat | March 13, 2011 3:24 pm
XD that was so much fun! Poor splicers getting pulled up to heaven by sunbeams. lol.
yoyo | March 13, 2011 4:52 pm
Short and really enjoyable. Hoping for a second part to this game.
knarf | March 16, 2011 11:26 am
That was really fun. If they made a whole game like that i would totally play it.
zenoverse | March 26, 2011 2:47 pm
Nicely done, very humorous as well. Despite the fact that BioShock is dark, creepy horror, it can be twisted in ways to make it a ridiculous piece of excessive comedy.
derwin75 | March 27, 2011 3:53 pm
That would be cool!!!!
icegrove | April 7, 2011 4:01 pm
We all living in Rapture! Rapture! Is Utopian!
