The Abandoned Planet, a new game from solo indie developer Jeremy Fryc of Dexter Team Games, has just launched globally. This title delivers a nostalgic experience, echoing the charm of classic video game adventures. But before we delve into its retro appeal, let's explore the story.
A Story of Mystery and Exploration
You awaken as an astronaut, flung through a wormhole and crash-landed on a bizarre and unsettling alien world. The planet is shrouded in an eerie atmosphere, devoid of any visible inhabitants. Your mission? Unravel the mystery of the missing civilization, explore the strange landscape, and ultimately, find your way back home.
Exploration is at the heart of The Abandoned Planet. Hundreds of unique locations await discovery across this deserted world. Employing a first-person point-and-click interface, you'll solve puzzles, uncover hidden secrets, and piece together a larger narrative. The game features a fully voice-acted English script, breathing life into the characters and enhancing the immersive experience. Fryc’s work on Dexter Stardust appears to be connected to this epic saga.
The narrative expertly blends suspense and puzzle-solving, creating a gripping journey. Intrigued? Take a look at the game trailer below!
