    It's fine. Was ready to be blown away after all the press and praise it got back in the day. But it's just fine. The platforming was a bit imprecise and physics based puzzle systems have always felt a bit wonky to me. There was a point where I had to use the gravity changer thing on a box and it was a chore rather than a fun experience. I don't feel like I was getting more skilled or better at the game as it went on. Definitely has a very strong identity with it's minimalist art style and soundtrack. I wasn't all that engaged with what was going on though.

    Limbo feels like an updated version of the original Out of This World, but its graphical style is frighteningly beautiful. The game is filled with traps that literally dismember the main character. Whether the ending is worth all the pain and torture is entirely up to the player. It's a magnificent artistic piece that grows on people as they unlock all the achievements.

    First off, props for telling a compelling story using the medium's strengths and keeping at least some things open to interpretation. LIMBO is kind of a modern Another World/Shadow of the Beast type of thing, only more forgiving. The PC version unfortunately has like a .3 second delay in the controls, making it quite frustrating to play when adding the (mostly) trial & error design of the game into the equation. The pacing also suffers a bit during the latter half, where the game focuses more on block pushing and gravity control puzzles and where checkpoints are a bit further in-between (not so in action heavy parts, a minus for me). There's replay value in collecting hidden eggs here and there, but the bonus stage that this unlocks isn't worth it.

    The game is amazing, great atmosphere, simple story or that's what it seems like at first, creepy which is definitely a plus and of course fun, the puzzles are easy and the gameplay is pretty good. The game was an awesome experience.

    Great experience. One of the biggest surprises of 2010 and one of my Top 25 favorite games of all time.

    Limbo is just shy away from being a superb game. It starts off brilliantly, with great atmosphere, simple puzzles and platforming. Later on it, as if there had to be some kind of a trade off, it loses the atmosphere and (little as it was) storytelling to gain complexity in the gameplay department. I'm not too fond of the ''trade off'', since Limbo as a platformer needs some serious tweaking, although saying that it's a great puzzle game.
    Pros: Great puzzles, awesome secret level, unique art style
    Cons: Troublesome controlling can lead to some needlessly aggravating sequences, barely any traces of a story(telling), the art style can be tiring on the eyes, if only there was more exploration
