Planet of Lana 2 improves upon its predecessor in every way, bringing an engaging story to its forefront with puzzles that amaze and excite throughout.
Lana is back, along with her companion Mui. They are once again a team and must work together to solve the problems of a beautiful world threatened by machines and slavers.
Planet of Lana has an interesting set up & is a pleasant journey travelling with Lana and her companion. The game has an incredible soundtrack as you move across a beautiful world besieged by an alien force. The puzzles and set pieces are good and the environmental storytelling is well done.

Planet of Lana was one of those quiet indie releases that surprised a lot of players with its emotional storytelling, atmospheric world, and thoughtful puzzle design. It didn’t rely on dialogue or flashy mechanics to make an impact, it simply trusted its world, its pacing, and its characters to carr
These elements bring me back to that central question: Does this sequel tread new ground, or just build upon what came before? Planet of Lana II is a game that finds itself between those two extremes. In some ways, it retains the visual and puzzling strengths of its predecessor and expands on them, yet it also accrues some familiar issues. Wishfully understands what it did well in the first game and seeks to scale things up, yet plays some of its platforming a little too safe. However, crucia...
Despite a few underdeveloped ideas, Planet of Lana 2 is a bigger, smarter, and even better-looking puzzle-platformer than the charming original.
