    While there are dozens of Sci-Fi Survival games to choose from, ION LANDS has blended a remarkable combination of elements to create a saga that stands out from the crowd.

    Phoning Home is not the same old survivor game, but tries to bring to light some serious theme, thanks to the link between ANI and ION, the two protagonists.

    Phoning Home tries very hard to blend the survival genre with a narrative experience.

Anyway, there's some real magic in the connection between the two main characters, Ion and Ani, and that's something.

The end touched me with both ends.… Full Review »
