VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Given how its release after the original reflexively inspires anyone to question its purpose, Neva: Prologue provides an adequate answer. Subtracted mechanics can oftentimes prompt developers to hone in and expand on a certain concept, at which Nomada Studio succeeded. A few of the main game's critiques carry over here, but its shorter length also mollifies them. Treated like a little desert (as reflected in its modest price point), it's easily worth it."
Its short length doesn’t give it much room to be more than another sample of Neva, but spending more time in its gorgeous world and hanging with a cute wolf sounds like a good time
In Neva Prologue, players follow Alba as she chases a trail of white butterflies deep into the corrupted swamps—only to discover a frightened wolf cub, lost and alone. To survive, Alba must earn the cub’s trust and guide them both through the blighted wetlands and the dark forces that stalk them.
