Critic Reviews
La Orden del Pixel
By Franco BorgognaSeethingswarm's Metroidvania stands out for offering an adventure with survival mechanics, charming pixel art, and an emotional story that dispenses with dialogue. It's a great addition to the genre's catalog. It's a game that relies on its atmosphere, gameplay, and dialogue-free narrative, resulting in a thoroughly entertaining experience made with an obvious love for the craft.
Just Play it
By Ryadh RezigPrimal Planet is not the best Metroidvania you’ll ever play, but it offers a unique blend of prehistoric survival and sci-fi elements, with an emotional wordless story and charming pixel art visuals. Despite its clear issues with world design and map navigation, it remains a journey worth experiencing—especially for fans of exploration.
Entertainium
By Renato ReisPrimal Planet is a disappointment as its thematical material can't make up for how bad it is to play. (Review in Portuguese)

By James LuffAll in all, Primal Planet is a rare gem, something that looks familiar at first glance but hides a big heart and plenty of surprises. It blends exploration, crafting, and narrative in a way that feels fun and even touching. This is one delightful surprise, and it absolutely deserves attention
GameBlast
By Victor VitórioWith its high points outweighing its low points, Primal Planet sets the platforming action in the harsh survival of a Stone Age populated by dinosaurs and invaded by alien ships. The mid-campaign, with its narrative emptiness and trivialization of some mechanics, gradually loses the emotional strength and gameplay dynamic of the beginning, which is compounded by the poorly functional mapping. However, those who enjoy facing dinosaurs and exploring the corners of dangerous, interconnected 2D worlds will have reason enough to venture into this prehistoric world.
