Today I want to write a little about Farewell Planet by tokoronyori, with music from Soejima Takuma, helped by Ayumiko, Hitomiitamura, and Sari. I played this game about a year ago and I still cannot stop thinking about it.

In Farewell Planet, you control a child robot that has just come to be in a village of dead robots, you are among their remains as you take control of their bodies to fulfill their last wishes and learn more about them, before letting them leave forever.

This game is about grief, about love, about obligations, about passion, about letting go, about holding on, about many different aspects of life that I really connected with. Each of the robots has aspirations, reasons to do what they did, wishes to fulfill, words left unspoken, grudges held and I loved everything about it. It is meant to be only played once, and I recommend the experience to everyone really. The music accompanies the stories really well, with a track for each individual robot, which makes them all the more moving. I don't want to give too much details about the individual stories because I truly want people to discover it on their own, so please go play it ! The same team worked on BOKURA and BOKURA: planet which i haven't played yet but i'm really exited to ! (just need to find someone to play with lol)

On that note have a nice day! And if you took time to read this, thank you! <3
