Planet of Lana is a puzzle-platformer for Android that follows Lana and her cat-like companion Mui as they explore a planet under siege by hostile alien machines. Together, they must solve environmental puzzles, use stealth, and cooperate to progress, ultimately attempting to rescue Lana's abducted sister. The game draws inspiration from cinematic platformers like Inside and boasts visuals influenced by Studio Ghibli films, giving it a distinct and charming aesthetic.
While the puzzles are well-crafted and the world beautifully realised, the mobile controls can feel awkward without a gamepad. Mui can be tricky to direct at times, and the game is not the most original take on its genre. That said, with the right controller setup, Planet of Lana offers a rewarding and immersive experience, blending suspense, charm, and visual splendour into a memorable mobile adventure.
