Limbo


I downloaded this game and made my roommate play with me because I was scared stuff was going to pop out and it would be like the exorcist maze game. Luckily it was not; although it was somewhat garish, overall it was not too bad.

When I first started the game I wasn't quite sure what to think so I started over analyzing EVERYTHING. I thought the idea was to experience limbo or it was some sort of sick trick. Then as I went along and actually made achievements, I began to realize there was actually goal. I thought it was fun and challenging and I liked having to use my surroundings to get to the next step.

 The concept of the game directly relates to this class because it uses horror in a suspenseful way. The entire game is shrouded in a gray mist, complete with creepy forest, traps and monsters. I love the idea of surviving, using your mind, and horror were all combined into this enjoyable, creative game.
