I would wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone who enjoys video games. Such a dark and beautiful atmosphere, Limbo is easily one the best indie video games I've ever experienced. Just try the Demo and see for yourself =D

Very endearing game. It took me quite a few attempts to finally complete a playthrough. With permadeath and no saves, this was frustrating at times. It's strange though, because part of me was actually a little bit glad every time I died. Because it meant that I'd have to start over and enjoy this game for even longer.

The replay value is great because of the random generator (items/enemies/map layouts), granting a different experience each time. I still come across new items every time I play, and I've played 18 times by this point. I recommend playing in windowed mode with an internet browser open to the The Binding If Isaac "items" wiki page. You'll thank me XD

The atmosphere is dark and lively, and really sucks you into its world. I enjoyed strategizing and deciding which weapons and items to use, trying to find the most effective combo for my playstyle. This game has a lot more depth than you'd think. It's honestly the most fun I've had with a single player game in a while.
