So I just finished Planet of Lana (PoL) and I must say it was one heck of a ride. I did play the game on Xbox and I can definitely recommend playing the game with a controller but I'm sure it works fine with mouse and keyboard as well. You play as the eponymous Lana, a girl living in a small but vibrant fishing village surrounded by open water and lush green forest. Lanas peaceful life gets brutally interrupted when the entire planet is being invaded by hostile robots who starts abducting people and Lana has to make a desperate attempt at freeing her older sister from the clutches of the invading machines. On her journey, Lana teams up with a small yet intelligent cat-like creature called Mui. Mui can jump incredible heights and Lane can command it to cut ropes with its teeth and operate some simple machinery and together Lana and Mui solves overcome obstacles by solving puzzles (mostly physics based) and handle some rather simple platforming sections. The gameplay isn't exactly challenging (besides a puzzle or two which might take a minute or so to figure out) and the entire game is over in less than 4 hours (depending on player skills of course). I'm thoroughly grateful for the fact that PoL doesn't attempt to extend the playtime beyond that - I much prefer wanting more over being fed up with a game and PoLs strenght lies in audovisual presentation rather in compelling game mechanics. PoL is drop dead gorgeous and the soundtrack is amazing. The characters are smoothly animated and the surroundings are simply beautiful to gaze upon. It saddens me that GOG doesn't offer the soundtrack in a deluxe edition of PoL since it truly is a gem of its own but alas, all we have here is the game and what an easy recommendation that game is.

This is the first title in this genre that really works for me. I might use this to define what "sense of wonder" is. And I find the story inspiring. It gave me the message that there is as much love in computers as we transfer into them.

If you liked Prince of Persia, Another World and a bit of simple puzzle, this game is a must. Art style is beautifull and the sound and music are excellent. Game is a bit short, but I hope that next game will be longer. Definitelly worth a buy.
