It took me some time to play it on my N5 due to the fact that I constantly got distracted.

Limbo is an amazing game, highly recommend anyone who hasn’t played it take advantage of this. And ideally, play on the largest screen you have in the darkest room you have.

- @brhfl with the audio on loudly to give you the creeps. I loved playing this on a 48" tv. I was really sad when I had to stop file-sharing on my ps3 and lost access to this game.
  
  Guess I’m finally getting a steam account.
  
  Way behind the times…

Although the boys live on steam as far as gaming goes (because eff you if you think I’m sharing my Mortal Kombat), but this makes me want to get on for myself

Ok since I’m new to steam and completely clueless… It says the game is free until today… It says it’ll stay in my library, but does it stay free to play after the time runs out?

- @RiotDemon yep, you bought it at a price of zero.
  
  I think that there are other games that are free to pay for a time but that’s different than a free purchase.

This is a great game that I bought on two separate occasions (360 and PC). The puzzles are crafted pretty well and the atmosphere is top notch. Limbo has been free on a few storefronts now since the developers of the game, Playdead, are about to release Inside. It also looks fantastic, I can’t wait to try it.

  I just watched the first 20 minutes or so of Inside. I don’t think I’ll watch any more play throughs because it looks cool and creepy, and I definitely will want to play it.
  
  Even if you don’t like the loudness that is PewDiePie, I’d suggest watching because he’s very subdued in this video:

- @compunaut Deal seems to be expired. Got a time machine? If so, does it cost less than $10 to go back to yesterday?

- @PanicSwitch I think my son ended up using a Humble Bundle link yesterday. He’s currently obsessed with building a nuclear reactor in Minecraft, so it might be awhile before we actually try Limbo
