Horrific

This game is playable, but its not a puzzle. Yes, there are obstacles to overcome but they arent hard to figure out. This game is more about flicking your finger at the right time, otherwise a little boy, who is the main figure, will get killed. In very versatile ways. Whoever designed this game is a deranged sadist. It is terrible, horrifyingly terrible. It shakes you to the core every time this poor little boy takes a hit. I know its just a game, and its not real, but it should have been mentioned somewhere that its designed for cold hearted gamers only, strange people who dont mind seeing a boy (even an imaginary one) getting killed over and over, until they get it right. If you think that this game is about solving a puzzle, its not. Because even if you got it figured out in your mind, it still wont necessarily work out. Because you didnt flick your finger fast enough. And this type of game does NOT fall under the category of puzzle games. It falls under arcade or something. Horror arcade, probably. Save your time and money. If youre looking for a fun puzzle, and if youre not a weird person that gets thrilled by horror, this game is not for you.

Awesome on PC, but doesnt port well to iphone

This game is fantastic on PC, but trying to play it with a touchscreen is incredibly frustrating! There are many instances where perfectly timed jumps are necessary, and other situations where the awkward touch controls and poor responsiveness make it way harder than it is meant to be. Go get it on Steam instead!

Favourite game

Absolutely incredible game, very intuitive controls, wonderful storyline. Please make a Limbo 2

FIX

I WANT A REFUND I BOUGHT THIS GAME ON MY IPOD 4 AND IT DOESNT WORK!!!! I PLAYED IT ON XBOX360 SO I WANTED TO PLAY IT EVER SCINCE FIX THIS OR GIVE ME A REFUND!!!!!!

Amazing game!

This game is simple but yet so good I was really impress. Totally worth the 5$.

Please read.

Im loving this game so far. A majority of the other people that are complaining about it not working didnt realize it wasnt compatible with their device, make sure you do research before you invest your money on a game. Anyways. This app is AMAZING, the only reason I did not give you five stars, is When I first got the app it constantly crashed for no reason. I waited a day and the next time I opened the app it started to work. And the other reason I did not give you five stars is because I simply havent finished the game yet, but I will write another review when I do. I have not come across any bugs with the gameplay itself which is quite amazing because it is quite a long play and is designed beautifully. You can definitely tell there was a lot of work put into this. The controls are a bit weird and hard to handle at times, but I dont think they can get any more amazing than they already are. Thanks for reading this :) I hope you can improve the game in some way. Even if you dont its still simply amazing -Alli

I know that this game is really cool but it wont open on my phone

A lot of fun

Really unique game. Worth the money and tons of fun. Neat to ay with headphones in because it is really creepy at time

Awesome

Good design , good game. It seems easy but challenging . Hope it will have episode 2

FIX THE CRASHING

When ever I open the app it crashes right away, please fix its my favourite game!

I dont understand the appeal

The biggest challenge in this game finding something to like. Atmospheric, but the atmosphere is dull and monotonous. The gameplay is sluggish and unexciting. The only challenge to the puzzles is spotting a trap in the gloom before you hit it and theres really no action to speak of.

True original

Excellent puzzle game, right out of the subconscious. Beautiful style and sound. Not for the impatient.

Best game ever.

The title says it all.

CRASHES

The game crashes about every two seconds and Im using I pod 5 gen. kind of a waste of money.also it doesnt tell the controls and their hard to figure out.

I want my money back!!!!

I cant even play the game

Controls are the only criticism

The touch screen controls make this game more challenging than the original game, which used the gamepad. On some of the more timing is critical sections, the lack of responsiveness will be frustrating, but not impossible.

Keeps Crashing

Crashes as soon as I open it please fix or money back please

Pretty, smart, awkward

Not the first one to say this, but great game. Huge issues with the touchscreen controls however. I dont have an issue with learning them as I go, but the timing and response is so inconsistent that its not player skill as much as luck in some places that overcomes a challenge. That makes the game the wrong kind of frustrating.

It keeps crashing!

Please fix this I really want to play it but it crashes while its loading the title

Cute

If only the controls werent so messed up!! Trying to hold on to something to pull it backward is what is killing me!! Not the actual problem solving! Annoying as hell!
