14. Limbo
That game wasn’t the happiest game to begin with. When you eventually find out at the end that, well, you’re dead and stuck in limbo for eternity, it doesn’t necessarily makes things better. Limbo is a depressing game. A sad game. A game about sadness. Sadness and depression distilled into game form. Why people love such a dreary, sulky piece of grey is beyond me.
But still they do. I guess finding out that you’re playing as a dead kid makes this into a work of art. Art has to hurt I’ve heard, and that Limbo does quite well. It’s hopeless, rock bottom, you’re dead and there is no way out of it, unless you just stop playing. Makes you wonder what happens with the kid when he dies in game due to player failure though.
