Immortal Planet is a really good souls-like action RPG. Its isometric approach and its minimal (but awesome) graphic style allow the game to run even on older PCs. It's a pity that the adventure ends after eight hours only, but the necessity for a second run in the new Nightmare difficulty level to unlock all the stuffs is enough to justify the purchase.
Immortal Planet is a fine game but the biggest complaint I have are the controls, which make it more frustrating than it actually is. It has strategic combat and slow progression with rage quitting moments as well as drawing inspiration from the Souls genre. If you're fine with the limited control customisation then do check out this game for a never ending hack and slash adventure.
It's a Soulslike, sure, but likely due to the isometric angle and the simple controls it requires, a repetitive one that offers little beyond a surface-level challenge. [Oct 2017, p.80]
Unforgiving and tense, Immortal Planet is the essential 2D Souls-like game.
Immortal Planet is mostly a game for Souls fans that just cannot get enough of FromSoftware’s particular brand of action. While it could also work as an introduction to the series proper, what with its short length, Immortal Planet doesn’t bring enough new to the table to really justify a purchase for anyone not already familiar with the Souls series. That it starts to recycle content in such a short time frame is also a crime, even if the combat can be engaging.
A game adapts the basic mechanics from the Souls series successfully, and offers working fighting system, but fails to bring the catchy charm that glorified original have. Unnecessarily high difficulty, inconsistent design decisions, stereotype and boring environment make the game only a dull average piece.
While I admire any indie developer with the ambition to take the Souls formula on, Immortal Planet is a surface-level imitation of an iconic series lacking the polish, variety and painstaking detail of its inspiration. This game takes a lot more than it gives.
