    Planet of Lana is a moving and intense videogame, capable of telling a story through images and delicate situations. Strengthened by a fluid and well-amalgamated gameplay, it offers always different and well-balanced puzzles. Must have absolutely.

    As the credits rolled, I found myself reflecting on companionship and what shared experiences mean to me personally. How many games can do that to a player?

    Planet of Lana looks and sounds as wonderful as its original reveal promised. While it doesn't redefine the adventure platformer, the adorable partnership between Lana and Mui, the gorgeous art direction and sweeping soundtrack make this well worth experiencing.

    Although it doesn't do anything revolutionary gameplay-wise, Planet of Lana is a lovely puzzle platformer with one gorgeous world.

    While I would have liked gameplay to have more bite and variety, Planet of Lana is still an enjoyable and beautiful romp. The art direction and main jingle are likely the only things that will stick with me in the long run, but Lana and Mui’s journey is a competent rescue mission that doesn’t always soar as high as the machines pursuing them.

    A disappointing attempt to ape the magic of Inside and Limbo, which despite some of the best visuals of the year suffers from unimaginative puzzle design and storytelling.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My comparison is a cross between Sommerville and Inside, but with an ending that didn't drive me into depression lol.

    Great artwork, beautiful environments, great story, incredible music. Gameplay was decent and to be specific, it was the sameness of the puzzles throughout the game that really held it back.

    What's unique about it is that it introduced a second controllable character to the mix but the whole game was basically "figure out what each button and lever does and push them in the order that doesn't kill you". One puzzle where they broke from this was a room where you had 4 sliders and had to actually think outside the box to figure out how to position them. I wish there was more of that.

    Overall a great game that you definitely won't regret buying.    … Expand
