    This game's user score is definitely a masterpiece of trolling. Anyway, I must admit that this was something unbelievable and will always remain the symbol of crap.

    This game blew me away. Almost literally as I was being brought close to the point of orgasm many a time. I was truly expecting a subpar adventure with little to no innovation and what I got was a phenomenal piece of game design and storytelling. I can heartily recommend it, you're missing out if you pass this slice of ambrosia in favour of tripe like Far Cry 2 or Dead Space.

    This game literally changed my life. I thought back to past loves and losses; of opportunities missed and moments shared. Of laughter and tears. And of course, my time aboard the seafaring vessel El Barco De La Cabra. Captain Spooner-Briggs' journey through limbo is a thought-provoking experience that even the recent plagiarism scandal could not taint for me. A must-buy game in any context.

    A fantastic game from start to finish. Beautifully crafted assets illustrate an imaginative and deep world. I can't help but feel that the reviewers missed the point entirely with this one: it's my personal favourite game of all time, a brilliant return to form for the entire point and click genre, and I urge you all to buy it and make up your own minds. If you're anything like me, you won't regret it.… Collapse

    A sublime game.. a truly inspirational - and ORIGINAL - point and click game. Tapping on the shoulders of point and click adventure games from years gone by, and proudly anouncing: "Hello! I'm the new kid in town!" Definitely worth a purchase.

    One of the finest adventure games ever made and a pioneer in the concept of virtual location-shooting within video-games, carefully and clevery reusing assets from other games to create a comedy/hottor masterpiece

    Emotional, believable, fantastical, magical. Just some of the words i would use to describe 'limbo of the loast'. The tale of one mans journey through the underworld in search of redemption for his earthly soul. In many ways it is not unlike Dante Aligheris 'divine comedy', only in videogame form. Everyone must play this.

    This game is a total plagium. Bad graphics for a 2008 games. Nonsense ending. Resuming,this game is a horrible title. It's so bad it makes me laugh.

    Given the new found popularity Limbo of the Lost has gained over recent weeks this may go down as a cult classic. However that’s not to say that the game is so bad it's good, the game is so bad it's an insult.

    One of the worst adventures I've ever played. [Sept 2008, p.116]

    The game is bafflingly boring and ridiculous. The game has no structure at all, no sense of urgency, no compelling reason to exist or be endured whatsoever. The scenes play on and on and on, and the story wends down byways of no consequence whatsoever. Lost indeed.
