Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via the official Steam page:
A mysterious creature resembling a dog stares at you. Could it hold the key to the story…?
The basic system is the same as the previous game… but it plays completely different
BOKURA: planet requires two players using two machines to communicate to play this 2-player puzzle adventure game.
The two players must convey what they each are seeing to their partner and work together to solve the puzzles in each stage, but a new “push” action has been added to BOKURA: planet! Players can send each other flying as they play the game…
…which means that players can push each other off cliffs if one is in the other’s way. Cooperation alone might not be enough this time! Players must not only work together, but anxiously navigate the possibility of confrontation.
New action “push” added! If you use it carelessly, you might get in trouble…?
Story
The earth was destroyed, and the few survivors began anew from the Stone Age,
and a new civilization was built.
Eventually, they were able to journey into space,
and so they planned to investigate faraway planets.
However, the distance between the earth and those planets was great, and it would take several hundred years to complete the journey.
Therefore, those condemned to death row were chosen to carry out the investigation.
On the journey, the research ship breaks down and two crew members must make an emergency escape.
They make an emergency landing on an unknown red planet, and they both have their own reason why they must return to Earth.
Will they be able to return safely?
