This little game, Limbo is a puzzle platform video game, developed by Playdead, Danish independent game developers. The game was released in July 2010. After the requests, the developers have released Playstation and Windows versions of the game.
The game is a 2D sidescroller, incorporating the physhics system Box2D to govern the enviromental objects and our black little kid (Our Character).
We control an unarmed little boy through traps, dangerous enviroments, different puzzles to find his little sister. The developer wants us to fall into the traps and then find the solution which is called ''trial and death''. As we die, we find the ways to advance through the traps (P.S. : You might need to watch video guides sometimes).
Limbo is presented in colorless (Monochromatic) black and white tones, using film grain effects, enlightment, lightning and minimal ambient sounds to create a horror-atmosphere.
Like most of the 2 Dimension games, our character can move left - right, jump, push and pull objects, climb ropes and interact with several enviromental items.
Here is a gameplay video of the beginning of the game
My thoughts about the game are, very funny, absorbing and challenging game but the game is finished in 2 or 3 hours maximum and the ending is very disappointing. Yet, if you are out of games and want to try a short and good experience, i would suggest you the game.
