What players say
Straight off the bat, LIMBO pushes you into the perspective of a scared little boy stuck in a dark, gloomy forest all alone. You're not told to do anything, just feel . While there aren't any instructions, the environment makes it pretty clear what the mechanics are and how the game is intended to be. The story's also something you kind of realise as you go, rather than understand from some dialogues or other...

LIMBO is fun and dark. It feels especially smooth with a controller, the movement and platforming feel much more natural and satisfying
First half is great, it looks beautiful, second half is just trail and error frustration.
Steam reviews, mixed to its ratio and rotated daily. Opinions are theirs.
