Lifeless Planet Premier Edition

This piece of software hardly fills the expectation of "game". Its story is, almost not there, and the precious little there is is smeard across such a vast space its almost non-existent. The control are sort-of weird, strangely imprecise and inconsistent. It runs weirdly too, weird hiccups appear, often resulting in fall to the abyss. The whole world feels like a linear coridor with emty areas stuck to it and every game mechanic feels the same. <tl;dl> DONT buy this game, its broken, boring and not worth your time.

A little old but... with nice plot

There's no killing, or insanely difficlult puzzles. The story is interesting, and the gameplay is fun. I'm about 3/4 of the way through, and looking forward to finishing it up. I can say that I fully recommend this game.

Easy to play & I love the story

I generally don't like platformers, and I was a little surprised that I didn't realize this would be one. So, you are going to die. Awkward controls, jetpackings, sometimes it glitches and you just fall right through the floor. But you immediately respawn at a relatively close place, any progress being permanent. There is a glitch where you can pass up a needed tool and then through respawning be unable to get back to it; in that case, you can choose to start a new game at any level you completed, and your progress (notes, findings) from your previous game will still be there. It's an amazing premise that burns out about a third way through the game when it turns out the planet isn;t so lifeless, and it turns to more generic sci-fi fare. Get it on sale, it's a good burn through 6-10 hours.
