Dark atmosphere and a darker theme.

User Rating: 7 | LIMBO X360
This game had me curious from the moment I laid my eyes on the gameplay. it's pretty, dark and very atmospheric. Darkness is all you see, no lights, detail on characters or heavy sound FX, just a depressing day for a little kid that has to endure an oppressive environment, filled with enemies and environmental traps and platforms. There's no story to guide you, just you waking up in this dangerous world.

Gameplay it's pretty simple, you can only jump and use an action button. There are no attacks that you can perform, but there are quite a lot of deaths, and they don't make you feel good, it's this strange sensation that everybody is fighting for survival and the puzzles are very well design, making me look up ways to go over some obstacles here and there.

The journey is very short and when reaching the end, the puzzling end is also misterious, but what gives this game a strong identity, it's pretty unique and a challenge that you have to be emotionally prepared to endure. It's just beautiful, but as a game it's pretty short. This is quite a goo mix of the video game media and art.
