Its recent release has led to almost universal praise, but it’s also a brief game that only takes a few hours to complete. But all too soon, it’s over, and you still want more! Few recent games evoke that sensation more than Inside, the dark and dreamlike adventure from Playdead. You wait with excitement for a long-anticipated game, and luckily it’s everything you hoped it would be. After all, if you like Limbo, you’re quite likely to be interested in paying cold hard cash for Inside.Īre there any other indie gems you’re looking forward to seeing in 2016? Let us know in the comments.We’ve all had the feeling. Inside is set to launch for Microsoft’s console on June 29, which probably explains why Playdead is offering its previous game for free just days before.

We’ve listed Inside as one of our most anticipated Xbox One games of 2016. You play the part of a young boy on the run from malevolent forces in a dystopian future.

Inside is yet another moody side-scrolling platformer, but with a slightly more colourful palette. If you’re wondering what Playdead has been up to since Limbo launched all those years ago, the answer is ‘making another game.’ You’ll need to have played Limbo to get that reference. We suggest hurrying to download it with the utmost urgency, like you’re being chased by a 20-foot spider.

However, the offer only lasts until 6pm tonight, UK time. You can currently download the game on Steam for free, for PC or Mac.

If you haven’t had the grim delight of playing the game, now is the best chance you’re going to get. Playdead’s indie puzzle-platformer attracted loads of attention when it launched back in 2010, thanks to its unsettling black-and-white art style and brain-tickling level design. Gamers looking for a quick bargain should note that Limbo is currently free to download on Steam – but not for long.
