What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Primal Planet is a charming, accessible Metroidvania that players appreciate for its cute characters, smooth difficulty curve, and satisfying exploration without brutal spikes. The main criticisms center on repetitive gameplay loops involving tool-gathering and crafting that feel tedious after repeat playthroughs, excessive swimming sections, and a skill system that doesn't quite fit the fixed-map design. Players with tolerance for straightforward, low-stress exploration seem to enjoy it as a short, fun experience.

This was a good little game! With most Metroidvanias on Steam there has always been a difficulty spike that turned me off of a game, but no such spike here! I'd say for new players you need to upgrade your village in order to get all the skills. Overall I liked this game! It was fun!

The characters are cute, the story is OK, and the gameplay is mediocre at best. You're going to be wandering around, trying to figure out what specific tool you need. After the first time, you just do the exact same thing - remove spiky blockages like this, deal with mysterious stone piles like that. The skill-points, resource gathering and crafting feel out of place - for a game with a fixed map like this, it would have been better to just have specific tools at specific locations like a normal Metroidvania. I gave up after the second big cutscene that took away my tools, because I didn't want to go back to the wandering around, hunting to re-craft my tools.

A fun short side-scrolling action RPG. The world is charming, the story is told in a heart-warming fashion and the entire thing is fairly uncomplicated. There's way more skills than the game's length supports in terms of leveling, but that just means there's always room for growth. There is too much swimming, though.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
