There you’ll see Briggs completing his adventure and having a bit of a party with some of the demented individuals he’s come across during his journey through Limbo. Regardless, at some point circa 2007 the team conceived the game’s ending, which is wonderfully realised in the bizarre video above. That’s when the problems started (more on that further below). It hit Europe first late in the year, with America following in 2008. The PC was the way to go, and production began anew in 2003, but the title wasn’t ready to be published until 2007. In 1995 the developers abandoned the idea of putting it on the two dying formats it had initially considered. This one is about Benjamin Briggs, the one time captain of the mysterious Mary Celeste (which was found abandoned at sea in 1827, which remains one of the great maritime mysteries).įor this adventure, Briggs is put in Limbo and he has to find his way out of there, talking to some disturbing individuals along the way (one of whom is called Faggot, for some reason…).


It’s a point and click adventure, a fantastic example of this genre being the wonderful The Curse of Monkey Island, which was released a decade before Limbo of the Lost! Steve Bovis, Tim Croucher, and Laurence Francis started this project in 1993, intending it for an Atari or Amiga device thing.
