Journey to the Savage Planet Reviews
Gentle anarchy reigns in this brilliantly humourous adventure.
This comedy exploration experience blasts off with a lot of fresh ideas, but doesn't quite stick the landing.
Funny, fresh, and full of surprises, Typhoon's debut blends genres expertly.
Journey To The Savage is a short-but-sweet title you absolutely don't want to miss.
A short and satisfying space adventure which really is laugh out loud funny
With fun discoveries galore, I was always excited to step back onto the surface of this uncharted world
This is one of hundreds of games that ask us to kill and conquer, but never question our actions. The story tells us we’re here to have fun, and supposedly save the world.
Journey to the Savage Planet is a charming and upbeat adventure about exploring an uncharted planet in service of your corporate overlords.
Journey to the Savage Planet knows it’s wacky and embraces that. In 2020 I need to smile more, and Savage Planet made me feel great, even if I was covered in goo.
As any Trekkie will tell you, discovery is addictive, and Journey to the Savage Planet is almost all discovery.
Typhoon Studios has created an indie title that will capture the attention of the masses.
Journey to the Savage Planet is a wonderfully unique mixture of No Man's Sky-style exploration and Metroidvania puzzling and platforming with a wonderfully dark sense of humour that arrives here on Switch in a slightly compromised but still eminently playable state.
Journey to the Savage Planet is a smaller, happier version of what No Man's Sky should have been at launch. Filled with things to find, trials to survive and, most importantly, genuine personality.
It's a game of MacGuffins, so to speak—what you're doing and why you're doing it is inessential to the joys and the juice on offer.
Typhoon Studios, formed by veterans of the Canadian industry, presents a great space exploration game for when we simply want to enjoy and let ourselves go, even if that means losing some depth and challenge.

With an enticing, hilarious world that's constantly fun to explore, Journey to the Savage Planet could be one of 2020's sleeper hits.
Journey to the Savage Planet was such a fun way to kick off the decade, and I'm going to bring it up at the end of the year when people inevitably begin asking about the overlooked gems of 2020. If you want something light and breezy with an intoxicating collectible-based feedback loop, here you go.
A beautiful, colourful, and bitingly satirical sci-fi Metroidvania that also has a welcome respect for your spare time.
The quirky environments and slick traversal systems make it a pleasure to explore. While the humor doesn’t always land, it still has a charm to it. If you can find someone to go on an adventure with you, there’s a lot of entertainment to be found in this bubbly and zany little package.
The exploration serves as the centerpiece of Journey to the Savage Planet and almost all of its other parts enhance or are enhanced by it.
