Inside the game
THE QUICK INTRODUCTION
What’s it all about?
LIMBO gives you little explanation and asks the surroundings to do the storytelling. Movement, timing and simple interactions become the tools for understanding a world where an innocent-looking object may be dangerous.
Observe what changes after each attempt. A failed jump or mechanism can reveal a timing rule that was not clear before. Its dark imagery and threatening situations make this a bleak puzzle adventure, despite the small number of controls.
Your kind of game if…
