Pray Your Prayers is a total conversion for Duke Nukem 3D (for the original version of Duke Nukem 3D and Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition). It contains new levels, new enemies, new sound effects, new music, and new weapons. The first version was created by Daniel "Shambler" Ewald and released on December 25th, 1999. The first version stayed on the Dukeworld top 10 most downloaded list for three weeks. An updated version for the Atomic Edition was created by Arthur Nugmanov (also known as "APTYP" and "Victim") and released on April 5th, 2000. The final version, Pray Your Prayers 2000, was created by the PYP Team and released on October 2nd, 2000. A version was later released to make Pray Your Prayers 2000 compatible with the EDuke32 source port; this version, known as Pray Your Prayers 2000 for EDuke32, was released by James Stanfield on January 19th, 2008. The original CON files for Pray Your Prayers 2000 are also included with the EDuke32 version, and certain issues from the original version of Pray Your Prayers 2000 were fixed. A patch for the EDuke32 version of the mod was released by EddyM4814 on May 23rd, 2009.

The updated version of Pray Your Prayers (by Arthur Nugmanov) does not contain the maps or audio files from the original, so to play it with a source port, you must copy and paste all of the original version's files (except for the GAME.CON and USER.CON files from the original version) and paste them into the updated version's folder.

To play the EDuke32 version of Pray Your Prayers 2000, copy and paste the DUKE3D.GRP file from the Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition disc into the mod's folder, then double-click Pray your Prayers.bat.
