Softonic review

Play as a spaceship's exploration crew

BOKURA: planet is a premium two-player-only action game that demands cooperation, mischief, and a touch of mistrust. After a catastrophic crash on a mysterious red planet, two players must work together to escape. With hidden goals and a brand-new twist to the gameplay, working in sync is more complicated than it seems. 

Set in a sci-fi universe, BOKURA: planet sends players on a mission as convicts forced into space exploration. With only three hours of gameplay, it tells a compact yet poignant story. Its minimalist art and deeply interactive mechanics make the experience feel personal and unpredictable, despite its short length. 

Co-op chaos on the red frontier 

Much like its predecessor, BOKURA: planet revolves around synchronized puzzle-solving between two players on separate machines. In this game, success relies on real-time communication—each player sees a different version of the world and must describe their perspective clearly. However, the addition of a "Push" mechanic turns collaboration into controlled chaos, allowing players to launch each other across gaps or into hazards. 

Moreover, the game’s defining twist lies in its hidden objectives. Each player is given a personal, secretive goal that may conflict with their partner’s. This unique game mechanic injects tension and suspicion into a game that otherwise thrives on cooperation, keeping both players second-guessing each other’s actions. It's a clever evolution of trust-based gameplay and adds emotional weight to every decision. 

Additionally, the puzzles aren’t overly complex, although they’re cleverly constructed to rely on the dynamics between the two players. Missteps—intentional or not—can derail progress, leading to both frustration and laughter. It’s a game where communication is as much about sharing the truth as it is about knowing what to hold back. However, players must coordinate externally since the game doesn’t offer a built-in matchmaking system to pair with strangers.

A game of trust in an untrustworthy world 

BOKURA: planet thrives both on its puzzle-solving mechanics and on the emotional strain of its premise. It forces you to rely on someone who might not be entirely honest, and in doing so, crafts a gaming experience rooted in psychology and human behavior. It’s a brilliant, short adventure that proves you don’t need a grand scale to tell a meaningful story.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?
