Games like Revenge of the Savage Planet

Steam reviews

What players say

Most players recommend this silly co-op adventure for its humour, exploration and smooth shared play, though many find it easy and repetitive over time.

Many players enjoy the goofy tone, the colourful alien worlds and the fake commercials played in the base, which several call the best part. Co-op is the main draw: partners can explore together or split off to pursue their own tasks, and progress and unlocks are shared. Players like the scanning and collecting, the upgrades tied to scanned creatures, and the fluid third-person movement. Some find the combat simple and the bosses unchallenging, and some say the later hours mostly consist of collecting. A few note that the sidekick voice and humour wear thin, that the story is light, and that some achievements, including full completion, need the paid deluxe edition or DLC. Several report crashes during boss fights and glitches, and a few prefer the first-person view of the original. Recent reviews are too few to show a shift in opinion.

Who it suits

Suits players who want a light, silly co-op adventure to share with a partner or family member, and anyone who enjoys collecting and exploring open planets.

Who should skip it

Players who want challenging combat, a serious story or the original first-person experience should skip it or wait for a sale.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with under 20 hours mostly praise the co-op fun and humour, while those with over 20 hours more often mention repetition, grinding and paid DLC for full completion.
