A sci-fi exploration game on an unexplored planet

The Invincible is a sci-fi exploration game set against the backdrop of an atompunk alternate reality. The player takes on the role of Yasna, an astrobiologist performing an expedition on an unexplored planet that soon turns into a search mission for lost crewmates. The player’s decisions affect the game, potentially bringing them closer to danger.

Aesthetically, The Invincible can be thought of as a mixture between the setting of The Outer Worlds and the aesthetic of Fallout 4. However, the gameplay itself is far more narrative-driven.

Explore an unexplored planet

The Invincible puts the player in the place of a highly-qualified, sharp-witted scientist who goes by the name of Yasna. Yasna and their crew find themselves on the unexplored planet of Regis III, but the scientific expedition becomes a search mission for lost crewmates. The player must follow the trail to find their lost crewmates, with every decision potentially bringing them closer to danger.

Become immersed in an atompunk setting

The game takes place in an alternate reality where that resembles the 1950s science fiction vision of what the future would look like. This type of story is known as atompunk and typically makes use of bright colors and technology that wouldn’t look out of place in the 1950s. The Invincible fits that aesthetic, so players who enjoy games like the Fallout series will likely enjoy that aspect of this game.

A game based on interactions

Players who enjoy becoming immersed in a story and enjoy the atompunk aesthetic of this game should find something to enjoy. For players who prefer more action-based gameplay, The Invincible may be less appealing. The story is also quite tense in places, and the developers describe it as a thriller.
