Playdead's LIMBO App Reviews

Total garbage.

I am utterly disappointed with this game and seriously want my money back. This game has zero tutorial so good luck with that!

Classic

Buy it for 99 cents. Or $1.99. Or $4.99. Its worth whatever you pay. But it does go on sale.

Fun creative and awesome game

This game in fun. It is also puzzling, and you can play it for ours.

add 64-bit version

Add 64-bit version to adapt new iOS. Please. Amazing game.

Not even close to being worth the money.

Even if it were free, I still wouldnt have kept it. I truly dont understand the hype. I feel like I was completely ripped off. It was slow, boring, and not even remotely entertaining. By far the worst game Ive ever wasted money on.

Garbage.

This game is absolutely terrible. Awfully boring and the "puzzles" are just ridiculous. One of the worst games Ive ever played. Wasnt entertained once throughout the entire game.

Slippery

Lots of fun and quite challenging, but my fingers tend to get a little sweaty when playing a long time. This makes the touchscreen controls ineffective.

Outstanding

Truly deserves a 5 star rating--no grade inflation here!

READ THIS!!!!

I absolutely loved this game. I love it with a passion so much that Ive gone and played it so many times on my iPad and computer. When you play this game you have to play it with headphones because the atmosphere of this game is really what makes it so great. The background and the monochromatic colors make this eerie and almost scary feeling. I liked the controls in the fact that there were no visible buttons on the screen so its like youre watching the movie but youre in it. The puzzles were definitely confusing and some of them took me a while to get. I was pretty close to looking up a guide at one point but I ended up not doing that and Im so happy i didnt. It felt so rewarding when you beat a puzzle so I encourage you all to not use a guide because I know we could all do it. This is a must play and it was 100% worth the money and I recommend this to anyone who likes to be immersed or anyone who just wants to play a more slow paced game.

Dodgy controls

The puzzles are pretty fun to figure out and the morbidness of it cracks me up, but executing the controls is sometimes incredibly frustrating because of the lack of responsiveness of the the game to my movements (have tried just fingers on the iPad and also the pencil). I try to push, it wants to pull, I try to jump, it turns me around and goes the opposite direction, usually dumping me into a pit of spikes or right in the path of one of the gigantic spiders, or just plain having me step on some violent-death trigger of some sort instead of jumping over it. Very hard to get the controls to just cooperate, and Im getting sick of doing the same thing over and over again trying to go the right direction or jump. It shouldnt be this hard.

Creepy and fun

This has to be one of the most creepy games Ive ever played on my phone, but also fun. Its bit of a challenge on many levels. I have almost beaten this game, but Im stuck now. This though is worth it.

Perfect game

Playdead makes the two best games I have ever played. Beautiful worlds with flawless gameplay engines. Very intriguing storylines with zero dialogue. Mysterious and eerie and very intriguing. Artistically inspiring. This really is the best game I have ever bought on any platform. I own limbo on both my iPhone and PS4.

Beautiful game, horrid controls

I really wanted to like this game more, but the controls dont lend well to the more difficult platforming sections. I spent hours trying to escape the spider sections, and replaying the same dry few jumps. Im not looking to inch through an ipad game because the interface doesnt match up with the gameplay mechanics.

Once started, couldnt stop it

Binge played it for 2 days. I had to finish it otherwise it will keep haunting me? My friend and I both screamed when the character got pierced by the spider all of sudden ?

Masterpiece of dread, horror and suspense

If you havent already checked this game out, now is as good a time as any. A truly groundbreaker in terms of gaming. Ps. And the devs have recently updated for iOS 10 to keep it performing well

Im sure itd be cool on console

This looks like a cool game, and it has good reviews. However, the phone version is a horrid mess. Im really mad I spent $5 on something thats completely unplayable. The controls on touch screen do not work. You need more precision and speed for this game thats nearly impossible without a mouse or controller. Dont buy this unless youre fine with throwing away money. I wont ever get to play it now because Im not going to re-buy it on console.

Awesome

I love this game!!! It is so creepy good. The music gives me goosebumps.

My Favorite Game! Seriously!

I cant give this a higher recommendation. If you like solving problems/puzzles and youre okay with a little creepy factor, then get this game! ?? I disagree with the haters—the controls are great. Just use two hands for almost everything, like grabbing and moving objects—and even run-jumping—and you wont have a problem. I never cheated by using Google or YouTube and instead took my time figuring out every level. Some people wont get the simplicity of the game jumping right in with no instructions. They dont get it and thats okay. 99% of people seem to get it according to the reviews. Youre probably one of them so go ahead and download and enjoy! Definitely worth the money. There are a lot of great free games out there but Ive never felt better about buying an app. Its definitely bitter-sweet when you beat this game. You feel so proud of yourself, like youre a genius! But then you feel bummed when you realize you dont get to enjoy it anymore and that even playing it again will never be the same as that first experience! I cant wait for Playdeads next games though!

Best game ever!

But really, best game for iOS. I REALLY wish they would release this game for tvOS.

AMAZING GAME

This game is one of the best games Ive ever played on iOS. Everything about it was just incredible. The eerie setting, the creative idea, the graphics, the characters, everything about this game was fantastic. The game would actually make me cringe at some moments. For example the way the giant spiders moved around got close to your character was so terrifying I loved it. This game was such a great game and it was very much worth $5.00. I would defiantly recommend this game. The only tips I have would to make the ending a little more understandable because it was a little confusing at first but then I soon understood it later on, but thats just me. Anyway amazing game, I hope to see more games like this in the future.
