PRAY Responses

So what happens if you pray in a work of interactive fiction? Usually, not much happens unless the player character is near an altar in a church or chapel. But it's often interesting to try, nonetheless, to see where the player character stands spiritually or to find out if you'll get some unexpected reward.

The Abbey (2008)

Ave Maria, gratia plena,
Dominus tecum.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Iesus.
Sancta Maria, Mater Dei,
ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
nunc et in hora mortis nostrae.
Amen.
Deus meus, ex toto corde poenitet
me omnium meorum peccatorum,
eaque detestor, quia peccando,
non solum poenas a te iuste
statutas promeritus sum,
sed praesertim quia offendi te,
summum bonum, ac dignum qui
super omnia diligaris.
Ideo firmiter propono,
adiuvante gratia tua,
de cetero me non peccaturum
peccandique occasiones
proximas fugiturum.
Amen.
Pater noster, qui es in caelis:
sanctificetur Nomen Tuum;
adveniat Regnum Tuum;
fiat voluntas Tua,
sicut in caelo, et in terra.
Panem nostrum cotidianum da nobis hodie;
et dimitte nobis debita nostra,
Sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris;
et ne nos inducas in tentationem;
sed libera nos a Malo.
Amen.
Sub tuum praesidium confugimus,
Sancta Dei Genitrix.
Nostras deprecationes ne despicias
in necessitatibus nostris,
sed a periculis cunctis
libera nos semper,
Virgo gloriosa et benedicta. Amen.

A voice speaks in your head, "Praying to Jesus won't help you now".

Aisle (1999)

You've prayed before--to no avail. But again you drop to one knee and close your eyes.

"Please God. Please God. Please God. Please.."

You stop--you know there is no point. You have sinned. You have been sinned against. It is too late. Best just go home and await judgement. Which you do.

Alcohol solves everything (2007)

Ariadne in Aeaea (2016)

You briefly ask the Good Lady to help you in your endeavours, and that is it. If she looks favourably upon your undertakings, you will notice in that you will succeed; if she does not, then you will have a harder time. Without a proper sacrifice, you can really ask for no more. And you have not the time or inclination to go buy a bull right now.

Blighted Isle (2007)

You uttered an appropriate prayer; there [if prologue]was[else]is[end if] no apparent response.

The response is situation dependent.

Blink (2004)

Religions were banned in 2049, remember?

Blue Chairs (2004)

You've never been really religious.

Blue Lacuna (2008)

You feel only the mounting dread of impending loss. The loss itself is not yet real.

Book and Volume (2005)

Well you are a good Catholic, but now is hardly a good time for praying.

Briar (2013)

[1st time:] You utter a short prayer to your relevant god(ess(es))(s).
[else:] You've prayed enough. Best not bother the powers that be too extensively.

Broken Legs (2009)

You don't pray. In middle school you used to pray before every audition but then you stopped and still got parts. Actually you got more parts. So basically that means you do better than God and why bother praying?

[more...]

Nothing practical results from Conan's prayer.

Concrete Paradise (2002)

You recite the Lord's Prayer from memory.

Counterfeit Monkey (2012)

I'm not much one for prayer myself. But you, evidently, are, and I find myself squirming—

(While your mind and heart are elsewhere, ordering your concerns and offering them up.)

—and now quiet. I don't know what, if anything, that may have accomplished, but I promise not to be rude if you need to do it again.

You bow your head for a few moments of quiet reflection.

Also: Inevitable (by Fischer); Masquerade; Prized Possession; Redemption.

[if at Milkweed:] It can't hurt. Can it?

In most locations, the command is not understood. I have only checked the first few locations.

A Crimson Spring (2000)

I kneel before the coffin and and make the sign of the cross. (North, South, West, East, I say to myself silently.)
"Jelena, you were everything to me. Before I met you I was nothing more than a boychild wholly without passion or drive. You woke things inside me I never knew I had. You made me see a side of love, politics, freedom and family that I had never considered before. I have no idea why this happened to you but I swear I will find out why and by whom and avenge you." Maybe a tear falls from behind my mask. "I will miss you, my love, my treasure, my gorgeous Red Cloud."
"Amen."
Ameba comes up to me and offers his condolences. He migrates back away from the coffin.
I have nothing else to pray for at this time... I've said my peace.

You are a man of reason, not faith. Still, you can't help but silently pray that you will manage to get through this.

Death To My Enemies (1999)

Um... We can't have that kind of stuff going on in this action-packed, suspenseful joyride of a story. Go play NunPorn.z6 if you're into that "praying" stuff.

You should offer your Prayer in a more suitable location.

Deja Vu (1993)

You meditate.

Enlisted (2000)

God works in his own way at during his own time. But in this way in this time you see no direct effects.

The Epitome of Toastlessness (2003)

TOAST fails to fall from the heavens. Perhaps blasphemy is in order.

Escape from Ice Station Hippo (2012)

The puzzles in this game are mostly simple meta-puzzles.
The opening puzzles mostly have to do with Findbot and his finding skills.
[etc.]

(Type "pray" again for another hint.)

Ether (2015)

You send up your thoughts to the God of your ancestors.

Eurydice (2012)

Considering you have lived this long without paying much attention to the potential existence of the divine, it would probably be somewhat hypocritical to expect attention in return.

Ha-ha-haaaaaaaaa-ha... huh-hoooo-haaaaa... Are you out of your mind? Well, as a matter of fact, you are... but praying!!! I never though you would actually try PRAYING! Wow... If I knew you would try to pray I would write some message to replace the default... Oh... Damn! I'VE REPLACED THE DEFAULT!

Ferrous Ring (2007)

I remember, when I was little, praying that the world would never be like this. So much for praying.

I would too, with a job like this!

You do not need to do that.

Fit For A Queen (2001)

You need to find enlightenment from within instead of relying on external sources.

Flotsam and Driftwood (2014)

[if at Hard Place:] One of the problems with not being religious is of course that it makes praying difficult. It's probably a little late to think of a good religion to join at this point. But what the hell. Your pray all the same.
"Help me someone, let me out of here."
Presently you are engulfed by shadows, a deep, almost palpable darkness, which rolls and rumbles and tingles and twirls and blots out the world and sensations around you.
Out of the dark comes a voice. "Welcome to the home by the sea."

Galatea (2000)

You're not the praying sort.

Gamlet (2004)

You are unable to pray in any meaningful way.
Standing absolutely still, you begin to silently recite the Amidah. For a fleeting moment, your existence seems to have a meaning. But the night is too dramatic, too full of movement and sound. Your mind slides from the words and darts to the image of your father, so unjustly dead.

Gilded: The Lily and the Cage (2005)

The thought is laughable. You are the closest thing to a god here.

Deities don't pray.

Goose, Egg, Badger (2004)

You are granted the serenity to accept the things you cannot change, courage to change the things you can, and wisdom to know the difference.

A good idea. You give it your best effort, but don't seem to notice any immediate results, more's the pity.

The Great Xavio (2004)

HOLY ROBOT EMPIRE (2014)

You mutter a quick prayer to learning and deference.

Hornets' Nest (2014)

You kneel down, close your eyes and pray that the nest will be gone. You open your eyes and look up hopefully, only to be disappointed to still see the nest in the tree.

How to Win at Rock Paper Scissors (2016)

You should focus on finding some offerings instead of praying now.

TODO pray after offerings given.

Hunger Daemon (2014)

You mumble out a few words of prayer to Nyarlathotep. You don't understand what you're saying; you just remember some of the pronunciations and melodies. Probably good enough; the Old Ones don't listen anyway.

I'll (2000)

There are those who look forward to today; those who are sure that theirs is the one, true religion; that today is their appointed hour. While the rest of us face today as the end, they look upon today as the new beginning. But I know it is too late to convert; I don't believe it, and pretending to believe it by praying now would never convince some all-powerful being that I believed it, no matter how Pascal might advise the gamble.

There is a flash of light down in the station below me; a puff of smoke; a stench of brimstone. A brutish red figure, too tall to be a man, stands suddenly there, and looks up at me. He calls out, in a grotesque mockery of a voice, "I have discovered that all human evil comes from this, man's inability to sit still in a room." With that, he crooks his finger at me, and

*** I have lost ***

I-0 (1997)

How pious of you.

"Your god is dead, and no one cares.
If there is a hell, I will see you there."
-Nine Inch Nails

Things aren't nearly that desperate yet. You hold off on the supplications.

In the Spotlight (1998)

God appears before you in a brilliant thunderclap. His white beard, glistening white robe, and mildly confused expression fill you with dazzled reverence. "Oh yes, having trouble with the string thing, I see," he says in a soft and slightly befuddled voice. "Tough one, that. Not really a problem for divine intervention, you know. Something about tying the strings together. Don't particularly need My help with this one. On your own, then, yes." God vanishes in another holy flash.
God appears before you in a brilliant thunderclap. His white beard, glistening white robe, and mildly confused expression fill you with dazzled reverence. "Oh, you again, yes? Bit busy, you must understand, working on a series of earthquakes." God coughs a little. "Have to solve this one yourself, yes. Can't help you, no, afraid not, not supposed to tell you the solution, now." God vanishes in another holy flash.
God appears before you in a brilliant thunderclap. His white beard, glistening white robe, and mildly confused expression fill you with dazzled reverence. "Seem to remember asking you to figure this one out yourself. Don't follow instructions very well, do you. Don't give them often myself. Yes, well. Have to damn you to hell, I'm afraid. Has to be done for people that don't follow My instructions." God coughs slightly. "Now hold still a moment." Before you can react you are consumed in unholy flame.

*** You have been cast into the everlasting lake of fire ***

Invisible Parties (2014)

Walkers are rarely given to structured religion. A substantial minority adhere, or mostly adhere, to customised versions of the major faiths. Most carry out rituals, invented, borrowed or inherited, in very much the same way that they seek out childhood recipes or favourite books; they tend towards ancestor-worship, symbols of identity, of memory. Your particular set of rituals are for quieter times than this, when you're not being watched.

Island in the Storm (2019)

You stop for a moment, and pray, to no deity in particular.

You say a little prayer for you.
You say a short prayer.

A Killer Headache (2012)

"Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death."

Or at least that's how it goes in your head. The actual sound you make is more like "Gublghhrhnghugh."

The King of Shreds and Patches (2007)

That can wait. You are a man of faith, but one who believes the Lord helps those who help themselves.

Labyrinth (2006)

You pray for guidance, but the Flying Spaghetti Monster does not answer.

The Land of Breakfast and Lunch (2020)

Land of the Mountain King (2017)

You say a prayer for your nordic gods.

If you would like to register a complaint or file a bug report, press three. Press four to hang up.

You kneel and pray for your life.

Little Blue Men (1998)

You do not believe in any particular deity.

[empty response]

TODO: See if there's a non-empty response elsewhere in the game.

Lost Pig (2007)

OK. Grunk feel little bit better now.

Lurk. Unite. Die. Invent. Think. Expire. (1999)

Your body disperses into as many atoms as their are stars. Each atom floats away to a seperate star. Reincarnated as light, your being enjoys its new prinprick existance. One atom, the one from your own sun relishes in its eight minute existance as it lands on the face of beaming child in northwest China.

Nothing obvious happens

The Moon Watch (2008)

Organized religion has been suppressed. The Party taught you to pray for the Comrade President of the USSR.

Mr Cuddle Cuddle Bop Bop (2020)

Alas your prayers remain unanswered. Feel free to ask the author for a hint on intfiction.org.

The Mulldoon Legacy (1999)

I haven't forced you to that, have I?

I stopped a moment in prayer. If my prayer had been answered, no evidence was immediately apparent.

MythTale (2002)

[in prologue:] You pray again to Artemis, who is goddess of all wilderness lands, and ask that she avert her wrath. A shrieking gust of wind tears past you, and you wonder again why you risk the goddess' anger by invading her domain.
[as modern day game author:] You offer a prayer to the gods, but hear no answer.

"God, save my drinks!"
"The demon makes such a sceptical face I just can't concentrate on praying."

Old King Nebb (2020)

You breathe a simple prayer to the [sun or moon or stars].

A Paper Moon (2003)

You never were the religious type.

 Yes; but you must wager. It is not 
 optional. You are embarked. 
 Which will you choose then? 
 -Blaise Pascal (1623-1662), from Pensées

Only Unitarians pray without saying to whom they are offering their devotions.

PataNoir (2011)

That does not seem appropriate.

Pick Up The Phone Booth and Aisle (2001)

A passerby notices your prayer, and is moved. She joins you, and within minutes a small crowd has developed. This is the beginning. A month later, you are on tv taking your prayer to the nation. A Senate bid follows, and before you realise, the whole country is moving, with you, ever rightward. Then, one day, Jesus arrives. He takes you to heaven and you live happily ever after.

*** You have won ***

[if your dad is alive:] Pray all you want. It can't help you.
[else:] There's no answer.

You bow your head for a few moments of solemn prayer.

Also: First Things First.

Perhaps it is a bit too late in the day to get religion.

Toby's Nose (2015)

If there's one thing that you've learned from Holmes, it's to rely on your own mental strength.

You bow your head and try to remember the words to a simple, yet effective prayer. Nothing seems to have resulted from your piety.
You offer up a quick mental prayer to the Powers that Be.
"Now I lay me down to sleep" just doesn't seem appropriate here.
Not a bad idea, but it won't help you here.
Nothing obvious happens as a result of your prayer.

Tower (by Deimel) (2014)

You wonder if God can help you.

The Tower of the Elephant (2006)

It is useless to call on Crom, because he is a gloomy, savage god, and he hates weaklings. But he gives a man courage at birth, and the will and might to kill his enemies, which, in your mind, is all any god should be expected to do.

Transparent (2014)

[Cycle down, repeating the last:]

You aren't usually the religious type, but going into some of these locations that you do on a regular basis encourages one to stay on good terms with the Person(s) upstairs. Just in case.
You fill your head with positive energy and hope for guidance.
You utter a quick prayer in Latin. Strange, because you don't know Latin.
Despite the power of positive thought, you realize self-motivation to a certain extent is your only course of action here.
Happy thoughts. Bunnies. Puppies.

No! Stop that!

Varicella (1999)

You're the Palace Minister, not the Christ Minister.

Ventilator (2016)

Your prayer is answered. Presumably. Although nothing appears to have changed, to be honest. Possibly because your prayer was too implausible and ended up in God's spam folder.

Vespers (2005)

(to God)
A warmth spreads throughout your body. He walks with you.

Violet (2008)

You know I'm more spiritual than religious, wallaroo, but that whole saying about God helping those who help themselves seems especially apropos here.
