About Planet Life
Planet Life is an idle RPG where you're reborn as a planet, drifting through space with nobody to talk to. Life is out there somewhere, though, and the story follows your search for it.
Under the story it plays like an incremental game. A bar across the top tracks your resources and how much of each you earn per second, and the aim is to get those numbers climbing. On top of that come conversations with the friends you find, battles with their own music, and some deck building.
The pixel art sits over a swirling starfield, and the humor is quirky and warm. Planet Life is a finished game with three chapters and a real ending, and you can play Planet Life free right here in your browser.
How to Play Planet Life
- Click inside the game window first, then use the mouse and the on-screen buttons.
- Follow the opening conversation to get your bearings.
- Watch the resource bar at the top, which shows each stockpile and its rate per second.
- Put your resources to work to get those rates climbing.
- Make friends as you explore, since they help move the story forward.
- Use the gear icon in the top corner for settings.
What to Expect in Planet Life
Planet Life is a story game first, with idle RPG numbers attached. Being a planet turns out to be lonely work, and much of the charm comes from the strange characters you meet and places like the Time Terrarium, which has its own club and closet.
With three chapters building to an ending, there's a finish line instead of an endless grind. The tone stays light and a little absurd, and battles get their own soundtrack, so they feel like a change of pace from the slow build of resources.
Tips for Planet Life
- To play Planet Life online without losing your place, stick to longer sittings. Progress can disappear between visits in this embedded version.
- Watch the per-second numbers. They show which resource is pulling its weight and which one needs attention.
- Keep the tab open while your resources build, then come back and spend them in one go.
- Talk to every new friend you meet. They're how the story moves from one chapter to the next.
- Take it a chapter at a time. Each one builds toward the ending, so there's no need to rush.

Can I play Planet Life on a Chromebook or phone?
A Chromebook is a good fit, since Planet Life runs in a browser and you play it with the mouse. On a phone it may load, but the resource bar, dialog and buttons are much easier to follow on a bigger screen, and a long story game is more comfortable on a laptop anyway.
Is Planet Life unblocked at school?
Planet Life unblocked comes down to the network you're on. The game needs only a browser tab, with nothing to install, but each school or office sets its own filters, and we do not control those. If it opens on your connection, it plays here the same way it does anywhere else.
Does Planet Life save your progress?
Progress can be lost in this embedded version of Planet Life, so treat each visit as a sitting of its own. Longer sessions are the safest way to play: settle in, work through a chapter, and avoid closing the tab partway through if you want to keep going from where you left off.
Does Planet Life have an ending?
Yes. Planet Life is a complete game with three chapters and an ending, so it tells a full story instead of running forever like many idle games. You grow your resources, meet new friends and fight battles across those chapters until your search through space reaches its end.
