"Revenge of the Savage Planet is one of my favourite games of the year with its awesomely colourful and lighthearted alien planets and entertaining gameplay that&s;s so packed with variety, it&s;s hard to put it down once you take off. …"
Read original review"An irreverent, colorful and intelligent space adventure, which confirms Raccoon Logic&s;s talent in telling absurd worlds that, deep down, are all too similar to our own. It&s;s not perfect, but it&s;s fun."

"However, the overall experience was great. Revenge of the Savage Planet has even become a bit of a family affair, with my two younger sons now playing it. I really hope we see more Savage Planet games in the future."

"While its predecessor&s;s floaty, unsatisfying combat remains, and its enemy variety is lacking, Revenge of the Savage Planet&s;s freedom of movement and exploration make this short-but-sweet, eccentric Metroidvania well worth a go."
