Apr 16, 2026It's not better than the first one, but overall it's a good game. It's suitable for jumping into the series at any point, and I can't let you miss the chance to see and play as Mui!

Edge MagazineMar 19, 2026While it's diverting, Planet Lana II never feels essential as a sequel, mechanically or narratively. [Issue#422, p.106]

Mar 5, 2026Planet of Lana 2 is a worthwhile continuation that shows how emotional a beautiful story could be, even without words. The incredible art style remains unchanged from the previous game, and I felt the story held up as a sequel. The puzzles are a little bit on the easy side, but not enough to make it feel unenjoyable. The gameplay is very safe, not straying too far from what defined the original, which is both good and bad.

Mar 4, 2026With its consistently sublime art direction, Wishfully needed to focus primarily on its gameplay. And so it did; the studio delivers greater variety and depth in its gameplay, and we even wished for more sequences in this vein, as they effectively break up the very linear structure of the first game. The story greatly enriches a universe that was still quite cryptic, but the ending, which takes the form of a "to be continued," leaves players wanting more and even a little frustrated.
-
Mar 4, 2026Fans of Planet of Lana should not be disappointed by the second installment of this adventure, just a little frustrated by its episodic nature.

Mar 4, 2026Planet of Lana 2: Children of the Leaf once again tells a top-notch story, one I’m firmly invested in. I don’t just want to see where these characters go next (especially after Planet of Lana 2 has revealed so much about them and their world) but I need this adventure to keep on adventurin’. The year is still young, but Planet of Lana 2 is the best game I’ve played yet in 2026.

Mar 4, 2026It’s not quite Bestest Best material, then. But Planet of Lana 2 succeeds far, far more often than it dawdles. Its core puzzle-platforming benefits from some particularly canny mechanical improvements, scoring the unlikely achievement of becoming more complex without stumbling into head-stumping, teeth-grinding difficulty. And, once you escape those cold corridors, it’s even more of an audio-visual treat than the original. Still with, happily, a cat who actually listens to you.
