The Invincible is a first-person adventure video game based on the novel of the same name by Stanisław Lem. It was developed by Starward Industries, published by 11 Bit Studios, and released in 2023. You play as Yasna, an astrobiologist who, along with her crew, is returning from an exploration mission to find and map habitable planets. Her ship, the Dragonfly, makes an unplanned stop over the planet of Regis III for one last survey mission and to investigate some strange discrepancies in the reconnaissance data. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?The original story of the novel was changed in a few ways, the major one being that the humans on Regis III are divided into two factions: an exploration team from the Interplanetary Commonwealth, and a warship of the Cosmosolidar Alliance. And then, of course, there's a third faction... | |

Happy Fun Ball | |
The Invincible (Video Game) / int_1ae71783 | comment |
Happy Fun Ball: The Cyclops, the ultimate fighting machine of the Alliance, looks rather unassuming when compared to the threatening Anti-Mats: a rounded, floating, grey robot that tapers towards the bottom. Yasna compares it to a spinning top. | |

Adaptation Deviation | |
The Invincible (Video Game) / int_23a1e2a9 | comment |
Adaptation Deviation: The main point of difference being the inclusion of a separate group of explorers from a different nation. However, the game does keep you on your toes in regards to how much of the rest of the plot has been changed by initially making you believe that the Invincible is already on the planet and that it failed in its mission: the dissection of the fishes' magnet-sensing organ, the convoy being ambushed in a canyon, and so on fit with the novel's version of events. Only when coming across a surviving crew member is it revealed that it is the Condor, the Invincible's sister ship, which touched down on the planet, with the eponymous ship still being en route, which is much more in line with the original story. | |

Moby Schtick: Rohytra's hatred of the Black Cloud has more than a few shades of this. He becomes increasingly determined to destroy the cloud by any means necessary and ends up provoking fights with it even after he has reached comparable safety. Yasna and Novik can try to convince him that trying to get revenge on the cloud is as useless as getting revenge on a storm or ocean. | |

Zeerust: The technology in the game is deliberately designed to look like something from a '60s-'70s science fiction novel cover. Bright primary colors, monochrome screens, and awkward, clumsy robots abound, next to interstellar travel, force fields, and antimatter guns. | |

Stupidity-Inducing Attack: The Black Cloud emits an electromagnetic pulse that destroys higher-brain functions of organics and also causes machines to malfunction. Yasna is lucky enough to only suffer from short-term memory loss, compared to the fates of her crewmates. | |

Trauma Conga Line: Poor, poor Yasna. Over the course of a few days she: Gets attacked by the Black Cloud twice. Suffers from blinding headaches and short-term memory loss as a result. Finds herself on the wrong side of Anti-Mats twice. Loses most of her crewmates, all of which had become her friends over the course of their mission. Sees her only way off Regis III destroyed as her ship's last remaining orbital capsule slams into the ground. Gets taken prisoner at gunpoint when she was just hoping to find some, any other human who might help her. Has to stumble through an almost literal truckload of corpses. | |

Shout-Out | |
The Invincible (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: There are a few references to other novels by Stanisław Lem. At one point Novik, the mission commander, starts telling Yasna a story about a mission where his ship crashed on a planet, everything was wrecked, and then he and his crew met these creatures... When Yasna talks about the evolutionary arms race that happened on Regis III, Rohytra angrily tells her to step telling him "robot fables", Fables for Robots being one of Lem's earlier works. | |

Cool Starship | |
The Invincible (Video Game) / int_c7b5445c | comment |
Cool Starship: The Alliance starship which Yasna visits towards the end of the game is a gigantic, shiny mountain of steel. It makes the Alliance transports scattered around its landing site look like toys, and those are each the size of a small house. Novik at one point scoffingly comments that it was deliberately built to be impressive, to which Yasna can reply that it's definitely working as intended. | |

The Invincible (Video Game) / int_e0d39cf0 | comment |
Microbot Swarm: The "Black Cloud" or "Flies" that cause all that trouble. They are a product of the robots and machines of the extinct Lyran civilization. Whereas the original robots were huge and complex, the "Flies" that developed are around the size of a large coin and act in huge swarms, with their abilities increasing the larger the swarm gets. They possess a two-step life cycle, the first being bushes which grow out of metallic substrate, and the second being the microbots. They are able to neutralize both machines and human minds through the creation of magnetic fields which are off the scale. | |

Pet the Dog: Rohytra is introduced as an extremely gruff, paranoid man to the point that his first meeting with Yasna is him pointing a gun at her at point-blank range. Later on, he's shown gently and patiently feeding some of his mind-wiped comrades. | |
