   The good:
   Simple gameplay game. Easy achievements. Intriguing story. Challenging platform player. The enemies IA is challenging (some one).The good:
   Simple gameplay game. Easy achievements. Intriguing story. Challenging platform player. The enemies IA is challenging (some one). Replayable for achievements and artifacts only and get the real ending
   
   The bad:
   Very short. The little man is useless and has no charisma. Cryptic overdrive. If it does not hook you, you may abandon it. After finishing it complete and finding the convo artifacts there is nothing else.
   
   The Meh!:
   This game has many cryptic themes and clues that could generate many topics of debate that on the internet and the forums generates a “trailer of a girl playing the guitar or a tattoo”. The feeling of sadness and desolation that abounds in the game overwhelms you. There is an enemy that will stalk you and will make your life miserable in the game and when you dispatch it you feel a great relief ... but it always comes back… Expand

   Good platform game, nice graphics and good new ideas. That is what we need, indie games which bring innovations. Good puzzles, not too difficult.

I loved the puzzles because they are both clever and rewarding to complete and the amount of variety present in them makes each puzzle feel fresh and interesting. There are an array of different mechanics in the game and each mechanic feels important and impacts the overall gameplay. Some may not like the idea of no combat I actually found it to be a good idea because it allowed me to tackle the game at my own pace. Technically the game is absolutely perfect and I didn’t come across any problems at all, which is great. Unfortunately there is nothing much in terms of a story and I think a little bit of a tale would’ve given the game even more charm. The game is a little on the short side, but this isn’t really a gripe because I do think you still get good value for your money I just wanted more because it’s brilliant. Does Planet Alpha do enough to get a recommendation from me? Planet Alpha offers an experience that stays with you long after completion and that’s actually pretty impressive considering it doesn’t have any story to speak off. Instead what it does have is puzzles and beauty dotted throughout and at times you will definitely be shocked by just how good the game looks. Without a doubt both the visuals and sound design give the game a lot of charm and it makes carrying on really easy even if you fail multiple times, and yes I did fail multiple times. That being said I didn’t get frustrated at all during my time with the game and instead I became more determined to complete the puzzle I got stuck on because the puzzles are that cleverly designed that I couldn’t wait to see the next one. At the end of the day if you’re a fan of a sci-fi setting and puzzles that really test you and provide you with a lot of rewarding moments then you owe yourself to get this because Planet Alpha has been done extremely well in all areas.… Expand

   The first three quarters of Planet Alpha is breathtakingly beautiful. Visually, it's everything No Man's Sky wishes it was. The gameplay worksThe first three quarters of Planet Alpha is breathtakingly beautiful. Visually, it's everything No Man's Sky wishes it was. The gameplay works fine but there's not much of a challenge here. I wouldn't call the tasks puzzles so much as scenes - you just get through them. Towards the end of the game, it becomes graphically repetitious, then bland, then basic and the final task is fairly mundane but it does lead into a little twist and then the game ends. It's not very long and it's not very challenging either from a puzzle or a platform perspective but, wow, does it look good.… Expand
