LIMBO PRESENTATIONS

These are presentations and publications made by Playdead relating to the game LIMBO.

BALANCING FUN AND FRUSTRATION

This presentation covers the process of designing puzzles that are challenging without being discouraging. The lead level designer on LIMBO discusses the design principles using concrete examples from the game, focusing on considerations in the areas of accessibility, difficulty, learning by dying, and fun.

Editor's Choice.

Limbo is a gripping blend of stark, haunting landscapes, bizarre characters and unsettling sounds. With clever puzzle design, an intriguing narrative and an excellent touch-screen control system, its as rewarding to play as it is interesting to look at and listen to.

Dark, forlorn and fun

Equal parts infuriating and fantastic, this game is really worth the coin. The film noir atmosphere and brutality draw one in to the the netherworld in which Limbo is set, while the gameplay is intuitive and cohesive. Good work to Play Dead, my only gripe is that their new release isnt available for my device.

Hauntingly beautiful

LIMBO is a game about a small boy, trying to find his sister, and his story is told through difficult puzzles and dark chilling graphics. It is definitely a game to be played with friends, for this is the sort of game you don't want to be playing at night, in the dark, alone. Some scenes are terrifying, and you really want to get the poor guy away from the chainsaws, electrified boards, cunning murderers, huge spider, snares, mind-controlling worms and well, the uncountable amount of things that are trying to kill him. LIMBO was a surprisingly long game and I found it was more puzzle then thrill overall. It's prequel, INSIDE, which I played before LIMBO, was definitely better in all aspects, but is less gory than LIMBO.
