“absurdamente lindo, obra de arte. Razoavelmente fácil. A trilha é muito gostosa e os personagens fofos. Vale muito a pena”
“love this game so much the puzzles are the perfect level of difficulty so its still a cozy game you won't quit out of frustration and have to constantly find walkthroughs and the animation style and story is beautiful”
“It's very, very pretty to look at. Learning the mechanics is dead simple. The designers did a good job. The cat-like habits of robots that strongly resemble spiders is awesome. The game itself, on the other hand, simply…”

“First off this is a beautiful game with great music and an intriguing human civilization. I definitely vibe with the sci-fi and post-humanism themes. The overall gameplay is pretty good with puzzles that shouldn't…”
“I really felt this game could have used a run button. Being made to go slow as if it was a way to give you time to think or build atmosphere was unnecessary. I know this game is old now, but the puzzles were so tedious…”

“The story is simple but you can tell what's going on, unlike some of its more abstract forebears. Three points: 1. The puzzles are dummy easy. I only got stuck on 1 and breezed through the rest. I'm not very good with…”
“The only thing Lana has going is the art-style and that cat-thing. Mechanically It is nowhere near the level of craftsmanship and artisery of e.g. Playdeads Limbo and Inside or even Little Nightmares 1, though I admit…”

“Cool little side scroller. The game is basically a combination of simple puzzles, stealth parts and platforming. It doesn't bring anything new to the table or is special in any way but it's still fun if you want to sit back, relax and enjoy the atmosphere.”
