Planet of Lana brings a magically crafted world with an immersive story. Granted, if you're not skilled at platform jumping, you'll find some passages worse than the puzzles, but don't let that discourage you. [Issue#328]

Planet of Lana does not surprise.

The game is great and every aspect of the game is positive. It’s not perfect though, having slight issues with the gameplay and story pacing. The good and fun things overwhelm the tiny amount of negative things making this game definitely worth buying.

Planet of Lana é o resultado de muito amor. Após zerar o jogo descobri que o compositor das músicas é Takeshi Furukawa, compositor da trilha sonora de The Last Guardian, que se dispôs a fazer a trilha após ficar sabendo do potencial do jogo. Por isso a trilha sonora é maravilhosa, o que complementa perfeitamente a beleza visual do jogo. A história parte daquele princípio de civilizações antigas e avançadas que particularmente já me cansaram, em jogos como Abzu, Inner Space e AER, mas me surpreendi com o caminho tomado e adorei no final. A história, assim como os puzzles, são bem simples, mas servem de ambiente para envolver o jogador na atmosfera entorpecente do jogo. Planet of Lana é lindo em todos os sentidos e cada parte dele foi feita com muito carinho e cuidado.

Do you like Inside? Me too. So you ask what if it was more lit? it would be more beautiful, but that's about it. I think the gameplay and story took a toll

It's a sensitively told story that's brought in to land with a thunderous final chapter, delivering suspense, spectacle, and a deeply moving resolution. [Issue#385, p.112]

Je viens de le finir et je dois dire que la direction artistique et l'ambiance sonore m'ont bluffé. Outre cela, ce fût un recit court mais très touchant.

Planet of Lana is a profoundly moving title that couples its clever, companion-driven puzzle-solving with an irresistibly gorgeous presentation to create what is, so far, the year’s prettiest, heartrending indie.

Planet of Lana strikes a nice balance between its different aspects. Exploring the game's world is never dull with its appealing art style. Puzzles are varied and fun, with some thrilling encounters along the way.

Planet of Lana is an enjoyable change from large games, a relaxing experience with a couple of poignant moments. It’s not in the same league as Ori and the Blind Forest or Limbo, and its puzzles could’ve been more creative, but in my opinion it’s still a strong debut by Wishfully and I’m curious what the future holds for the studio.

Planet of Lana is a beautiful game with simple mechanics and great characters, including bobcat. But repetitive gameplay, easy puzzles and bad controls in sections with drones and electric labyrinths destroyed our hopes of getting a true gem.

While its evocative graphics will attract players on this beautiful journey, the simple traversal puzzles and lack of emotional weight mean Planet of Lana is just not very memorable.

7 - Very Good.
Unique art style, fun clever puzzles that are solvable without having to look anything up which is very refreshing these days.. heart warming story, you get a cool companion who you feel lonely without, attachment to story & characters. Could have been longer & sometimes the controls felt iffy. Overall recommend for puzzle & platform lovers.

I enjoyed the game while it lasted, though, unfortunately, that wasn’t very long.
The game is undeniably cute, but it’s so brief that there’s barely enough time to get fully immersed. The gameplay is fun, not overly challenging, which is a nice touch.
But let’s talk about the story… it’s hard to take seriously with all the innuendos. Planet of "Lana" backward? Really? And with that, the spaceship design ?! (you know, the one written with clay in the lore). Maybe my mind’s in the gutter, but it looks suspiciously like a certain… accessory. Nobody noticed that? And of course, the robots with tentacles abducting humans..yeah, okay, we see where this is going.
The story’s credibility is a bit of a stretch; a kid taking on such a challenge ? Come on lol.
That said, it’s not a bad game by any means. I just wish the story had a bit more depth. Uhuh

Just not very interesting. The puzzles are quite pedestrian and somewhat unforgiving, and the pacing of the game is extremely slow. Played about 30 minutes which felt like 30 hours, stopped and went to youtube and realized there was at least another 500 hours of gameplay left, so thankfully I stopped where I did. Try it out if you like very tedious and dull games but otherwise give this one a pass.

The game has an interesting world that makes you want to explore it, but that's the only interesting thing it has to offer. The logic puzzles are trivial, the controls are clunky, and the gameplay itself is boring and unchallenging. 80% of the time, you just hold the analog stick to the right and wait for the moment to press the jump button or guide a little creature to drop a rope for you. After an hour, I got bored, watched the rest of the gameplay on YouTube at 2x speed, and still found it dull, skipping through the slow parts.
SummaryA planet that used to be a place of undisturbed balance between human, nature, and animal has now become something else entirely. The disharmony that had been in the making for hundreds of years has finally arrived in the form of a faceless army. But this is not a story about war. This is a story about a vibrant, beautiful planet - and ... Read More
