Description

Limbo is a 2D side-scrolling puzzle platform video game developed by Danish studio Playdead. It follows an unnamed boy who is searching for his missing sister in a monochromatic world filled with perils, puzzles, and monsters. The game is set in a dark, surrealistic world, with the main character, a small boy in a yellow t-shirt and shorts, navigating his way through a hostile environment. Along the way he needs to figure out how to solve various puzzles and traverse dangerous obstacles, such as giant spiders, deadly chasms, and massive machinery. The world is presented in a monochromatic environment, with minimal color and sound, emphasizing the eerie atmosphere. Players must use the boy's agility and reflexes to overcome the challenges. As they progress, they will uncover secrets and gain new abilities that will help them complete their journey. Limbo also features an alternate ending, adding replay value and making it one of the most acclaimed indie games of recent years.
