6th Planet tells the story of a near future, where the planet Saturn suddenly changes into a possible place for humans to live. To find out what is going on, a monkey is sent into space. This is the beginning of a series of events that will determine mankind’s future.
The goal of the game is to guide your space pod to the landing site on the other side of the level. With only two buttons to work with, it is a simple concept that’s easy to pick up, but hard to master. The Story Mode contains 50 levels, divided across 7 worlds. If you succeed in finishing this mode, you unlock the Master levels, which is a collection of very challenging levels for you to try out.
The comic story, in between the levels, consists of a total of 188 screens, which is two comic books worth of images. The story is co-written and drawn by the studio that’s responsible for the Oscar nominated animation films The Triplets of Belleville and The Secret of Kells. Screens are colored by Raymund Lee, famous for his work on Marvel’s Wolverine series.

Incredibly hard. So glad I didn't pay anything for this. I always wonder why developers make their games this difficult and frustrating. Deleted.
Fun game and story.

The gameplay is a fairly typical lunar lander style game. Nice graphics. Reasonably challenging but not too hard. What makes the game is that you are rewarded every few levels with another chapter of a well written and illustrated comic book. I like this reward much more than game center achievements. It keeps you playing to see what happens next. File size is large for a lander game, but that's probably for the comic which is what make the game fun. Kudos.
