It Has a Story

This eerie, atmospheric world is devoid of its inhabitants, leaving you to unravel the mystery of their disappearance and the peculiarities of the alien landscape, all while seeking a way back home.
The essence of the game lies in exploration. With over hundreds of unique locations to discover, The Abandoned Planet offers a first-person point-and-click adventure where your primary activities involve solving puzzles, uncovering hidden secrets, and piecing together the overarching enigma.
The game is enriched with full English voice acting, which breathes life into its characters. Jeremy Fryc has woven an epic narrative across his projects, with The Abandoned Planet connecting to his other creation, Dexter Stardust.
