comment
Limbo of the Lost is a horror Adventure Game in which you control Captain Benjamin Spooner Briggs, captain of the Mary Celeste (as he will let no one forget). Briggs wakes up in a cell with an extremely flexible, spider-like man named Arach, who unlocks the door and lets him into the dungeons of an ogre named Grunger. Briggs eventually finds that he is in Limbo, and attempts to escape, with the help of his "Earthly Guide"; that'd be you.The game is infamous for, among other things, reusing graphics and sounds from other games without permission, to the point that a wiki was made to document the origins of its assets. For obvious reasons, the game was also pulled from store shelves due to the rampant plagiarism.Despite the title, this game has nothing to do with Limbo.

Horsemen of the Apocalypse
 Limbo of the Lost (Video Game) / int_12c6bf73
comment
Horsemen of the Apocalypse: The final chapter contains a puzzle related to both the four horsemen and the seven deadly sins. On their seals, they are all represented as skeletal undeads with various distinctive traits (War wears a roman helmet and Plague wears a broken hood.) The hooded guys who take Briggs prisoner in the final segment may be them.

comment
Inexplicably Identical Individuals: If you pay very close attention during Chapter 3, you can notice that Danny Skurge (the guy with the extended coughing fit) and the Jailor (the guy who keeps notifying Briggs about the new dead citizens) are in fact two different people, even though they use the same character model and have (presumably) the same voice actor. The only difference between them is the clothing they wear (black vest for Danny, green vest with a badge for Jailor), and the only tell-tale sign that they're two separate people is the mystery reveal sequence, where you can see the two standing next to each other... if you can make that out from underneath the smoke effects.

The Worf Effect: During the climax of Chapter 3, the Soul Taker, who previously has killed many people with ease, stands perfectly still roaring and screeching while Briggs takes his time to pull out the glass box, put the candle inside, lit the candle and slowly countdown before trapping him inside said box.

All There in the Manual: Reading the manual and/or watching the extended intro in the bonus features DVD is the only way to know why Briggs is in the Limbo of the Lost, why he has a Seal of Sufferance on him and what is the deal with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse in Chapter 5.

comment
Chekhov's Gun: You start with a seal of some kind in your inventory; whilst beforehand you use it to translate a drunken guardian's speech, you don't see how it's supposed to be used until Chapter 3. The whole "earthly guide" thing just seems to be a throwaway fourth-wall-breaking comment and doesn't really become relevant anywhere in the game. Until the final puzzle, where Briggs is captured but the earthly guide isn't.

Anachronism Stew: Possibly justified by the otherworldly setting, but it's a tad odd how Briggs just takes it in stride. One noteable case is when 19th century ship captain Briggs is able to fix an electric circuit with no issues.

Apathetic Citizens: In Chapter 3, even though everyone knows about their fellow townies getting their souls sucked out, no one bothers to do anything about it, leaving Briggs with the dirty work. Not to mention that not a single one of them can tell snow apart from ashes.

Hammerspace: At one point in the game you are forced to take along a coffin lid in your pocket. Then there's the 30 or so items you're carrying around at the same time, in that same small pocket, in chapter three... Made more notorious as sometimes Briggs complains about picking up some smaller objects for similar space reasons.

Captain Obvious: You have the option to tell Briggs to "Look" at various objects, but 99% of the time, if he DOES have anything to say about them (other than just the default response of "MMMMMMMmmmmmmm interesting"), it will be just him stating what the object is (which you likely already know from just seeing the object's name) instead of providing any useful insight.

Player and Protagonist Integration: You act as an "Earthly guide" for Briggs, meaning you tell him where to go, where to look, or what to collect. Briggs occasionally acts independent of you, going to certain areas by himself or collecting things unprompted. In the finale, Briggs gets captured, and you must solve the final puzzle by yourself.

Laughing Mad: The subtitler. Not any of the characters, the subtitler himself. The subtitles are riddled with crazed laughter that doesn't feature in the spoken dialogue.

comment
Moon Logic Puzzle: The puzzles often make little sense. The "Soul Vial" puzzle from Chapter 1 is the most notorious offender: it requires you to make a fake Soul Bottle so that you can swap it with the real Soul Bottle and then use it for another puzzle. To make that fake Soul Bottle, you need to mix water and saffron together to create a green liquid. Because according to this game, water is pure blue, and saffron is pure yellow, and mixing them gives green.

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Briggs has no issues with tearing bones right out of a corpse, digging through rotted eye sockets for a key, or just outright maiming the inhabitants of Limbo to progress his goals. But he flat out refuses to pick up a grub with his bare hands. Said grub later morphs into a horrific fly-like creature, which he has no problem stuffing into his pants.

Guide Dang It!: Very few puzzles in the game are signposted in any way, and since the game does not allow you to ask NPCs about anything and does not give you any clues when inspecting objects, managing to figure out solutions to many puzzles without using a guide often borders on a miracle. For instance, Chapter 3, how likely the player is to realize that they need to press a specific, easily missable button in the stables in order to enable a puzzle in a completely different location that has no obvious connection to the stables? The counter-intuitive design extends even to basic gameplay functions, like the subtitles. In most other games, you can turn subtitles on by simply going into the options and clicking on the relevant setting. Can you hazard a guess as to how you can turn them on in this game? By pressing T on your keyboard.

Gainax Ending: Really, the whole game is one long Mind Screw, but the ending is particularly weird even by the rest of the game's standards. After you successfully manage to stop the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse from killing Briggs, all of a sudden he ends up wandering into a party set up in his honor by almost every character in the game, followed by everyone singing a song about how Briggs should be the King of Limbo. No explanation is given on how or why this happens.

Seven Deadly Sins: In Chapter 5, there are seven doors corresponding to the seven deadly sins, each of them with a goblin's head on it whose facial expression mirrors the sin it's representing. They are also Colour-Coded for Your Convenience. Apparently they're the hooded wraiths that capture Briggs near the end, forcing you to save him, though since only four appear on screen they could as well be the Horsemen.

Sociopathic Hero: Briggs is technically on the side of good, in that his goal is to stop Fate from getting to rule over the mankind. However, he also seems to have little regard for any damage he might cause to the inhabitants of Limbo: In Chapter 1, him placing a coffin lid over a bridge in order to walk over it causes Bugsy to have his eyes eaten by the Woodgator. When Briggs finds out about this, the best he can muster in response is to sheepishly look around, and then absentmindedly pick his nose. In Chapter 2, he has no hesitation putting a bear trap device over a man's eyes just to steal his fountain pen.

The Dog Was the Mastermind: The finale of Chapter 3 can come off as this. Aside from the Skurge brothers, the innkeeper, and possibly the Mayor, there are no hints pointing in the direction of Mrs. Blackley and O'negus being the culprits. Briggs' deduction of them being guilty is supposed to make him sound like an expert detective, but sloppy writing just results in something that makes ordinary Bat Deduction seem reasonable in comparison.

Obfuscating Disability: Several times in Chapter 3, Briggs has a conversation with Miss Blackley, who appears to be so deaf and shortsighted that she mistakes him for a girl and keeps on mishearing everything he says. Later on, she loses her glasses, and Briggs gives her a wrong pair as a replacement. Since she accepts these incorrect glasses without questioning it, Briggs deduces that she must be just pretending. When he presents this evidence at the end of the Chapter, she proves to be perfectly able to hear him, confirming his suspicions.

Timed Mission: The final puzzle in the game gives you a limited amount of time to save Briggs from the Sins. Run out and you get the bad ending. However even this is sloppily done, as the timer actually doesn't move and will only drop for a fixed amount of times whenever you enter or leave one of the Seven Sins' chambers. So it's less about running out of time and more like "know exactly what to do and when."

Solve the Soup Cans: Pretty much all the puzzles. Some of them are needlessly roundabout solutions to simple problems, and frequently the "logic" behind them makes no sense whatsoever. One puzzle involves putting a sleeping potion in a jailer's gruel. It involves a worm, 2 bottles, an unlit torch, human fat, an arm, a skull, sewage water, and snot. Good luck!

Last-Name Basis: If anyone refers to Briggs by name, it's always just his last name. The only person who refers to Briggs by his full name is, well, Briggs himself.

Our Souls Are Different: The bottle-able variety. The owner is apparently safe as long as his soul is inside a flask or bottle. When the soul is forcibly taken away by the Soul Taker the owner is Deader than Dead.

Humongous Mecha: One that pops out of nowhere at the end of Chapter 4. And serves no purpose at all in the story.

Jerkass: Cap'n Briggs rather unhesitatingly mutilates people to advance the plot... and sometimes, for no real reason. Not just that, he commits bodily harm to get an arm to make gruel. Holy Hell. Let's not forget when he claps what can best be described as a bear trap onto a guy's head so he could steal his pen. Said pen is then used to blind a sea monster — which, as far as we know, has done nothing wrong. Blinding the sea monster doesn't actually do anything useful, but it turns the pen into a nib, which is then used as a lockpick to remove somebody from their chains. All this to get a clue to get to the next area, which is cryptic to the point of uselessness.

Endless Corridor: Chapter 1 is the most notable due to having three of these right next to each other, all reusing the same assets between each other and even Briggs commenting on how long they are.

Easily Forgiven: The Worrymeister in the opening of Chapter 3 (assuming it is the Worrymeister and not just a character with the same model) seems to show no ill will to Briggs despite having a bear trap clamped onto his eyes. Then again, would you want to pick a fight with the guy who tried to gouge your eyes out just to steal a pen?

Cruelty Is the Only Option
 Limbo of the Lost (Video Game) / int_fc25c2fb
comment
Cruelty Is the Only Option: The most notable example is in Chapter 2, where the only way to progress is to first put a beartrap over the Worrymeister's eyes, steal his pen, and then use that pen to blind a monster in the nearby sewer, all for the purpose of using the pen nib as a key to unlock the chains holding the nearby prisoner. At no point does Briggs ever question the morality of his actions, either.

All Trolls Are Different: Well, not really: at the end of Chapter 1 and 3 an incredibly familiar-looking troll will appear to take away most of Briggs's stuff. Both times without warning.

Shown Their Work: One puzzle requires you to make "tequila" by combining sewage with a worm. Anyone who knows their tequila will tell you that a worm in the bottle is a trademark sign of cheap hooch trying to sell itself as quality tequila. Appropriately enough, this particular batch of "tequila" is meant to knock Grunger on his ass so Briggs can escape. In any other game, this would feel like a tongue-in-cheek acknowledgement; here, it comes off as oddly appropriate.
