'90s LucasArts Inspires New Game Abandoned Planet

The Abandoned Planet has officially launched worldwide today. This solo indie title comes from developer Jeremy Fryc under the Dexter Team Games banner. The game evokes a nostalgic feel reminiscent of classic video games from years past. We'll explore those influences shortly, but first, let's delve into the story.

A Compelling Narrative

You play as an astronaut hurled through a wormhole, crash-landing on a profoundly bizarre planet. The atmosphere is haunting and moody, with no inhabitants in sight. Your mission is to uncover the mystery of the vanished population and the strange, alien environment. Ultimately, your goal is to find a way back home.

Exploration is the core gameplay mechanic in The Abandoned Planet. There are hundreds of unique locations to investigate on this deserted world. This first-person, point-and-click adventure focuses on puzzle-solving, discovering secrets, and unraveling a larger mystery.

The game features full English voice acting, which helps bring its characters to life. Developer Jeremy Fryc is known for crafting an interconnected saga across his projects. His previous game, Dexter Stardust, is reportedly connected to the events in The Abandoned Planet.

The narrative expertly weaves together suspense and puzzle elements to create an engaging experience. To get a feel for the game, take a look at the preview below!
