As it pulls you in with unimaginable ease, Limbo forces you into a world of death and offers you the gift of wonder.
I don't really know how to start this review, so I'll just start with my favorite part: the ending. If you invest a little bit of emotion into this game, allow yourself to be immersed in the world, the last 5 minutes of ... Read Full Review

LIMBO manages to captivate the player with a peculiar artsyle and clever puzzles.
LIMBO is a hard game to describe. Not gameplay wise as it is without any shadow of a doubt a mix of puzzle and platforming, but rather what it tries to tell, always feeling like it has some hidden meaning that I wasnt ab... Read Full Review

Limbo has a wonderfully unique style to it but it sacrificed content in the long run
It is true that XBLA games very often try to be as artsy and creative as possible with their visuals, and Limbo is certainly no exception. On the outside this game is about as atmospheric as it gets with a unique look a... Read Full Review

A surprisingly addictive game. Once you have started, you simply can't stop playing it. Smartest puzzles ever!
One of the few best games I have ever played, and recommend, is Limbo. An environment of light fear and smartly-done puzzles made me happy for eight hours at least. I hope there is a continuation for this excellent game.... Read Full Review

This dark and foreboding game will suck you right in, and won't let go easily.

LIMBO's start-off is strikingly disturbing but it ultimately loses momentum and becomes an average puzzle-platformer.
The Good: Strong art direction pointing everything presentation-wise to a palpable eerie mood; gory without being cheap; perfect physics; challenging in the right measure. The Bad: Fails at keeping up with its own sta... Read Full Review

Limbo makes to use your brain for few hours.
I downloaded this game from PSN given the fact that it was free (plus member). I usually don't play free games or this kind of short game. When I watched the trailers when it was released I didn't like it because of the ... Read Full Review

As much mood piece as video game, but the mix of stark atmosphere and clever puzzles is hard to resist.
Limbo does a great deal with very little. Stark black-and white-visuals and a simple two-button control scheme ("action" and "jump") highlight the power a talented developer can wield by keeping things simple. While the ... Read Full Review

There aren't many games that can present a depressing, black and white 2D platformer. LIMBO succeeds in every aspect.
