"Journey to the Savage Planet" is an action-adventure game developed by Typhoon Studios, first released in 2020. Set on a vibrant, alien world, players explore and catalogue flora and fauna while working to solve the mystery of why they were sent there. Though it features comedic elements and creative environments, it received mixed reviews, with some critics pointing out that it didn't fully capitalize on its potential.
