Reviews

“The demo build of Primal Planet features a sizable chunk of gameplay that takes 30-45 minutes to play through and has plenty of secrets to discover. The pixel art animation is fantastic, the movement is fast and fluid and there are lots of cleverly crafted environmental puzzles that make inventive use of spears and fire. Highly recommended.”
