Reception
Antic's Amiga Plus gave the Amiga version of Planet of Lust an overall score of 2 out of five stars, criticizing the game's graphics as "[looking] like they were imported from an 8-bit machine" as well as the 'underwhelming' amount of sexual content, expressing that "while there is supposed to be an erotic feeling to the game it is nothing to get excited about. The graphics of naked women and softcore nature might titillate only the sexually desperate". Amiga Plus expressed that they were underwhelmed by Planet of Lust's 'almost interesting' gameplay, stating that it might have at best "a few interesting puzzles and a chuckle or two." German gaming magazine Amiga Joker gave the Amiga version of Planet of Lust an overall score of 31%, beginning their review by expressing that "It's hard to believe, but Planet of Lust manages to undercut its predecessor: the confusingly similar packaging once more contains two disks, and the quality of the graphics is certainly inconsistent - and they're good for almost nothing!" Amiga Joker compared Planet of Lust's controls to that of adventure games by Mindscape, but criticized the game's parser, music, and 'monotonous' gameplay, stating that "[the] parser understands maybe ten words. You go from room to room, you try not to let the music put you to sleep, and other than that you wait for a naked woman to eventually appear onscreen." Amiga Joker criticized Planet of Lust's 'underwhelming' sexual content, expressing that "If you manage to get that far, you'll be disappointed: a glimpse of the actual Playboy title screen is the only excitement you'll get. The game promises sexual intrigue, but then it offers nothing - it's one to forget!".info gave the Amiga version of Planet of Lust an overall score of 3.5 stars out of 5, calling it an improvement over its predecessor Sex Vixens from Space, and praised the game's "colorful cartoonesque" graphics and "smutty" & "humorous" text..info criticized Planet of Lust's "somewhat stilted" parser, but expressed that it was an improvement over that of Sex Vixens from Space.
