Odd Planet Review

Odd planet is a pretty weird game. In fact, it is basically a cop-out version of Limbo. Granted that this game does give credit to Limbo as a reference for their game, I still think that it is basically the same. You die the same way, but you don't think as much. In Limbo, you pull levers and activate traps, but in OP you only push some things, but mainly don't do much else. You jump, you collect some items, but the same is very short.

The fact that it has an "Episode 1" means that this is not the only game in the series to come out. But the gameplay is only about 20 minutes, and the ending drops off at a cliffhanger. She writes a letter, you see her face, ending. So many unanswered questions, and the game is too easy.

You can die tons of times, you have no life meter. This game, like Limbo, gives you tons of time to die to you can learn the right way to get past a part. This is a pretty fun part, but it can make one cocky. There are no repercussions to dying, so... why be careful?

While I think this game can be MUCH better, it isn't horrible. Mainly becaise Limbo wasn't terrible. But it will always be a cop-out version, in my opinion.
