Professional reviews from gaming critics
Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet leaves you wanting more. With such a well-conceived and beautiful world to explore, it's a shame we can't spend more time in it. But a great short game is more welcome than a mediocre long one, and I do highly recommend you investigate Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet. Despite its brevity, it left a lasting impression on me.
Creeping through the isolated and hostile corridors of Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet makes for an unexpected summer delight.
Not so Insane After all...Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet is an exploration based shooting adventure game with aliens. It's not particularly original, but [...]
From the mind of renowned artist Michel Gagne comes a captivating adventure set in a unique, rich and insanely twisted world. Blending exploration, intense shooter action, and puzzle-solving with gorgeous artwork, rich storytelling and Hollywood quality presentation, Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet draws you into an epic journey full of surprises, danger and wonder.
Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet wants to be different. It’s got a crazy name, a gloomy yet cartoony art style and a world that hums to the throb and clang of alien noises. It even refuses to introduce itself in words. Instead it silently shows a blob of intergalactic black goo blotting out an alien sun and turning it into an insanely twisted shadow planet.
Insanely Twisted? Maybe not, but it’s definitely entertaining enough to be worthy of the name Ultimately Excellent Shadow Planet: a fantastic adventure for anyone enticed by the thrill of exploration.
