Ratings and reviews

An absolute MASTERPIECE !!! The game is a must for the lovers of these slowly paced adventure games. I've enjoyed the Broken Sword saga, I've cursed in The Longest Jurney and I both laughed and cursed in Grim Fandango. But whereas in none of the above could I have managed without some tutorials, in LIMBO I've mostly made it on my own. It can be frustrating at times, but it's puzzles are absolute genius! A fantastic little game indeed. Oh yeah... The ending could've used a little touch.

This game is incredible, the graphics and design is stunning and the actual gameplay is smooth and immersive. I wish the full version was free, but I'm grateful that this game has a demo version at all, as most games don't, and I'm considering purchasing the full version. I like how you get 5 full levels instead of just one, and I love all the mystery. It's great as a puzzle game, too, as the levels can be complex and really get you thinking. No ads, which makes it even better. (:

The game's simple yet horrifying graphics create an eerie and atmospheric environment. The controls are intuitive and seamlessly integrated into the gameplay, providing an unobstructed view of the game world. Instead of providing tutorials or instruction, the game simply lets you jump right in and discover the mechanics and puzzles on your own. Overall, the game is outstanding for me. There might be critics for changes, but it is good for for now at least.
