The Invincible is a first-person retrofuturistic thriller and a loose adaptation of The Invincible, a novel by Stanislaw Lem. It's the debut project of Starward Industries, whose ranks include developers who have previously worked on such games as Dying Light.

Plot

The Invincible is set in an alternate world which never entered the digital age. All the highly advanced gear that appears in the game is based on analog technology.

We play as Yasna - a member of an interstellar research expedition. She starts the game alone, waking up on an alien planet, Regis III. She doesn't how she ended up here, but she knows for sure she didn't come alone. The remaining crew have disappeared, however, forcing her to go find them.

Shacknews: 8 / 10 by Josh Broadwell

Annoyances and bugs aside, The Invincible is as bold and smart as its protagonist, and I can only hope it starts a trend of equally thoughtful takes on big ideas from history and literature.

Full Review

Windows Central: 4.5 / 5 by Cole Martin

The landscape of Regis III is as stunning as it is haunting, and Yasna's journey in this unusual land is rife with philosophical and moral conundrums that leave you with plenty to think about even after the credits roll.

Full Review

PlayStation Universe: 7.5 / 10 by Garri Bagdasarov

I enjoyed exploring Regis III and uncovering the various mysteries that it holds. However, while the gameplay is simple and basic, The Invincible excels in its fantastic writing and performances from main characters, Yasna and Novick. As I played through the game, I was driven deeper and deeper into its narrative until the big reveals were finally unleashed.
