PLANET ALPHA (PS4) Review | GamePitt

Shaun writes: PLANET ALPHA plays incredibly similar to Playdead’s rather excellent titles Limbo and Inside as a 2D side-scrolling puzzle-platformer where you traverse environments avoiding enemies and pitfalls whilst solving puzzles along the way. Again, similar to both those titles, there is a distinct lack of written narrative and rather the story is told cleverly through actions and set-pieces that take place within the scenery and environments.

This might be a little off-putting to some that enjoy a high story-driven experience but it definitely suits this game and enhances the experience of showcasing its stunning world.
