Planet of Lana is a 2023 puzzle-platform game developed by Wishfully Studios and published by Thunderful Publishing for Windows, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. In the game, the player assumes control of teenage girl Lana and her cat companion Mui, as they explore a fictional planet invaded by hostile alien machines. The game was inspired by cinematic platformers such as Inside, while its visuals were inspired by films from Studio Ghibli.

Planet of Lana received generally positive reviews upon release. Critics praised the game's art direction, storytelling, music, and sound design, though some criticism was aimed towards the lack of innovation in its puzzles and short length.
