The game Beyond Good and Evil was developed and released in late 2003 by Michel Ancel, who works for UBISOFT. This action-adventure game has an emphasis on solving puzzles and stealth.
The game's setting is the planet Hillis, where Jade, the hero of the game, and its members are practicing yoga and enjoying peace and quiet. The scene is accompanied by migrating birds and describing a happy life and relaxation.
Shortly thereafter, Jade opens her eyes and witnesses meteors falling out of the sky. These meteors create skeletons, mutants, confine her members inside their bodies, and take over their minds. The mutations invade the planet, violating the harmony, kidnapping the members of Jade, and launching a massive attack on her and the planet.
The government appears to be trying to protect the residents living on the same planet, but it turns out that this is a scam.
I highly recommend playing this game as it is really original and fun!
