- Planet of Lana (PC - GamePass)
I'm really hitting a lot of games before they disappear from the subscriptions that I pay for. This is a very short and very beautiful game about a girl named Lana separated from her ... friend? Sibling? The graphics are amazing. The music is amazing. I believe it took about 4-5 hours, so it's not a huge commitment of time for a very emotional and simply told story. It's a puzzle-platform game, so it reminded me of old classics like the
Oddworld franchise -
Abe's Oddysee and
Abe's Exodus. It has such a minimalist story told through the exploration of the world to reunite these two children - and you get a cute little pet to accompany you on the journey. I can't recommend this short game enough. I'm glad I got a chance before it disappeared out of my sphere of games.
- Soul Hackers 2 (PlayStation 5)
This is another game that I've wanted to try but is falling off PlayStation Plus on May 19th. I highly doubt I will be able to finish it in time, but if I get hooked then maybe I will buy it on an upcoming sale. For a spin-off in the
Shin Megami Tensei franchise, it doesn't have the greatest reputation. I have to say the opening sequence was extremely confusing. The graphics are awesome and gameplay seem very fun so far. I see the name Kuzunoha is mentioned in this game. That's another game (
Raidoh Kuzunoha) I need to play. It is so far and overall enjoyable. I'm not entirely sure what all the negative press was about, but it has also gone through a few patches as I'm playing it 2 years after its launch.
