    The puzzles were a better level of difficulty than Limbo as well, more manageable, not quite as difficult. That is a positive in my book. I liked not having to sift through a walkthrough for this one (except once).

    Tell you the truth, this would be a 10 from me if it wasn’t so expensive. $20 is too much for this short of a game. But other than that, if you buy it on sale, it’s well worth the money.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game has a lot more of a story compared to LIMBO. I thought about it for a long time after completing it. It does a great job of communicating the story through visuals. There are even some secrets in the game that add another layer to the ending.

    The graphics are unique and sound design is excellent. Underwater segments are used creatively and aren't annoying.

    My only complaint is that the difficulty is lacking compared to LIMBO, making for a quick playthrough. The difficulty spiked in the middle of the game, but it never really developed throughout the entire game.    … Expand

    In terms of intrigue, art direction, lighting, sound, control of the emotional responses intended, originality, creepiness, storytelling, subtlety, animation....every single one of those points is perfect.
    It’s not quite a 10 as it doesn’t really take the actual gameplay to anything higher than very neat and well planned. But it’s a meticulously perfect 9, if that makes sense.

Inside offers an harrowing experience like no other platforming game has. You play as a young boy who begins the game fleeing from armed guards into a forest. If I say anymore, it's not worth playing. You must run and solve puzzles throughout the course of the game, which won't take you probably that long, due to the game being only about 3 to 4 hours long. Don't let that playtime though put you down, 4 hours of a good game is better than 4 hours of fun in a 20+ hour game. There was a few moments where the trial and error moments got out of hand, but that shouldn't scare you off from what I don't just consider one of the best games of 2016, or one of the best games of the 2010s, but I consider it to be one of the best games of all time.… Expand

    Overall, we need these kinds of linear experiences, with all their faults, because we need games that are deliberately paced, even if they are not always "fun." Only a strong directorial vision, with its strong sense of progression, can allow games to tell unique stories that have an aura of magic about them, with every little scene filled with marvel. Such stories can touch children and adults alike.    … Expand

    |Confusing because of the story. . Not the puzzles…
    Every puzzle I ran across in inside had a clever solution…
    I understood what needed to be done most of the time, but it was up to me figuring out how to accomplish this...
    There are many different puzzle types thrown in here, from timing, to pulling items, to distracting, to straight up mind control…
    I don’t have a favorite puzzle type as they were all equally fun to figure out…
    And the setting here its creepy and eaerie
    you feel like there’s danger around every corner, really immersing you into its world…
    as does the delivery of this games campaign as it slows down for a few stealth sections where you’re trying to blend in to not die..
    As this entire game you’re being searched for…
    so you have to dodge the sight of enemies as well as spot lights...
    no sections too frustrating with perfectly placed checkpoints much like limbo…
    INSIDE is a really special experience with moments I want to talk about but to prevent spoilers…I can’t

I do believe it is a step down from the more challenging puzzles and platforming of Limbo. I did enjoy the black and white contrasts more there. Albeit, they did showcase Limbo, after all. These colour schemes work in their own way here and are more suited for the theme. However, those worked better for Limbo. What I am trying to state here is that if both games are compared on the basis of their colour usage and its effectiveness, then Limbo is better.

    The story execution was better in Limbo as well. I liked its minimalistic approach more. Here, things were a bit ... too obvious? I do realize that both games approach two very different topics and Inside is more of a social commentary if anything else, but that is how I felt about it.

    Regardless of what anyone thinks, I thought the game was very well put together, despite a few of its flaws. It is short and to the point kind of affair. Every gamer should give it a try as not everything is about big, flashy AAA titles. Limbo and Inside prove that many things can be done in a highly complex and effective manner by the use of simple controls and graphics. It reinforces the idea that "little things" make big differences sometimes.

    Short version - if you really liked their first effort, Limbo, you'll like Inside.

    Six years in the making, every little aspect of this game - characters, animation, particle effects and smooth parallax background have all been slaved over by meticulous artists and what I can only assume is a relentless art director keeping everyone on the same dark, gloomy, uncomfortable page visually.

There's a few nods to Half Life/Portal in there as well. The puzzles are on the easy side - you're not really going to need a walkthrough, and there's quite a bit of a fluff levels where you're basically just running to the right. I could have used a little more exploration - side paths, and rooms and stuff to explore and interact with to learn a little more about the story. The ending is bananas.

    I'm docking a few points because the game is really, *really* short. About three hours at most, and I was just getting into a groove when the credits rolled. If I can pick up Bloodborne for $20 and get 100+ hours of gameplay, this isn't much bang for your buck. This game needed to be about twice as long, with at least one cool new character mechanic (there are three 'modes' in the game, we really needed one or two more).    … Expand

    Great atmosphere, the game is stunning to look at an is a bit terrifying with what has to say about conformism. Depicts a dystopian reality perfectly without saying a single word (just gameplay, sound design and background action). Sometimes it relies too much on the players dying so they can learn what to do. Still one of the best of 2016...maybe the best.

    Inside should be the gold standard for wordless storytelling. Every environment and detail feels intentional, the puzzles are challenging enough to emit the feeling of accomplishment when figured out, and the soundtrack brings it all together for a well-revered puzzle platforming classic.

    Great game and atmosphere! Sometimes it becomes even creepy, which I like!
    The puzzles were also interesting.
    The only negative was that it could be a bit longer.

    BEFORE WE START:
    Inside is a Puzzle-Platform video game developed by Playdead and published on June 29, 2016. The game was completed 100% on Xbox Series X.

    BREAKING IN:
    Inside is an extremely linear title based on silent storytelling through the game's continuous animated backgrounds. The early gameplay stages do not differ much from what the player will encounter throughout the entirety of the story, allowing them to face any adversity from the beginning. Most of the mechanics are highly intuitive, thanks to the simplicity of the usable buttons, the jump and the grab. The dark and macabre setting of the story is easily discernible from the initial deaths, which are quite easy to come across due to the non-trivial difficulty of this title.

    OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE:
    As mentioned earlier, with limited interaction buttons, Inside focuses on the complexity of its puzzles, which are almost always distinct from one another but interconnected enough to prevent the player from feeling disoriented. Some sections of the game are quite challenging to overcome without experiencing fatalities, but as it relies partially on trial and error, they never become frustrating or predictable, aided by a multitude of death animations. As the title suggests, the mechanic on which many puzzles revolve is the ability to control other humanoids by entering their bodies, utilized for both platforming sections and structured puzzles. In addition to the extremely linear story, there are several collectibles that lead to highly crafted secondary areas.

    FADING TO BLACK:
    Graphically, Inside blends a minimalistic style, employing flat colors and graphics, with a 3D approach characterized by a pronounced depth of field and rich details. The story is entirely conveyed through events in the background or foreground, with people interacting with the game environment or the player themselves, often pursuing them to capture. The background, therefore, is not merely a passive element to observe but always interactive with the current gameplay situation the player is trying to complete.

    THAT BARK:
    The audio component is relatively straightforward, with background soundtracks suitable for each passage.

    BUT WHY 8?

    PROS:
    The extreme simplicity of Inside is one of its defining characteristics, making it a relaxing and fast-paced game to play. Furthermore, the puzzles are never predictable or boring, nor too difficult or frustrating. Additionally, the story is as simple as it is effective.

    CONS:
    The lack of a noteworthy soundtrack is a significant drawback for such an authorial game, making certain areas feel rather bare and playable without audio with few issues and shortcomings. Additionally, at times, the game feels too linear, with levels that give a sense of déjà vu.

    RATINGS:
    Gameplay: 8.5
    Music: 7
    Story: 7
    Puzzles: 8.5

    The game is Limbo but with prettier graphics and not as much thinking needed. I think I was stuck on one puzzle for a total of 30 seconds and other than that it was a case of running from one end of the map to the other end of the map.

    The atmosphere is great, the graphics look wonderful, the sound is awesome. The story.... uhhhhhhh.

    I would have liked something more here. Every single bit is up to you to decide on what you want it to be about. In a day and age of some amazing video game stories, from The Last of Us to SOMA, putting a bunch of random stuff on a screen isn't enough anymore.

    And then the ending... if you want to call it that. There was no buildup whatsoever. When it happened I literally said out loud "this better not be the end" and sure enough the credits started to role.

    I see nothing but scores of 10 everywhere I go and for once I can say I just don't understand it. It's nowhere near a bad game whatsoever but the amount of high praise seems insane to me.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. INSIDE is a spiritual successor to Limbo, even if only in terms of playstyle. Playing through INSIDE I felt very much at home as someone who has played and completed Limbo, so it should be understood that if you don't like Limbo then INSIDE is likely not for you.

    I played this game as a co-op experience with my girlfriend. She's not much into playing games, but she was really intrigued by what was going on within the world. We had a fantastic time figuring out the puzzles and exploring the world, even if bleak.

    There are some gruesome death scenes, and some very odd moments, mostly towards the end. The sound was appropriate and surprisingly well done. Some moments are enhanced very nicely by the sound.

    As a whole I felt that the experience was worthwhile at the prices it goes on sale for, but I felt that INSIDE is too similar to Limbo, without a conclusive ending. Well worth a play, but not worth the high high praise it got.    … Expand

    The initial premise from the demo was great. A lone boy lost in the dark woods being chased by mysterious figures and their dogs, and a simple play mechanic with only two buttons and puzzles to solve while I dodged enemies. It was thrilling getting away from the sinister characters just in the nick of time and staying out of their view so I could progress.
    This thrill got less and less as the game progressed, and the story veered more into the grotesque. I was pretty disappointed when I finished it, and while it's not a terrible game, I don't think the payoff justified the investment.    … Expand

Maybe the devs wanted the player to focus more on the subject matter at hand (control in society, unethical experimentation etc) but for me I found myself wanting it to just end soon (whereas I couldn't get enough of Limbo). There seemed to be a few mechanics that I felt were underused. For example there's a puzzle where you control a 'zombie' (for want of a better word) through ANOTHER zombie that you are controlling with your actual main character. I think this was the only time this type of interaction was used... such a shame because there could have been some great puzzles with that mechanic. Anyway I think there was a grand total of 2 puzzles that I enjoyed solving in the entire game. Maybe on a second run through I'll appreciate it more but even just the thought of doing that feels like a chore.

    Still worth a play though, especially if you enjoyed Limbo. I don't think this deserves any less than a 7.    … Expand

    INSIDE's gameplay is rather simplistic, and much easier than Playdead's previous effort, Limbo. I'm starting to see a trend in their games: no story, no tutorials, no explanation of what is going on or what you're supposed to do and no music. While these elements worked for Limbo in a black-and-white setting, INSIDE feels like a bunch of ideas thrown together which on their own are fineINSIDE's gameplay is rather simplistic, and much easier than Playdead's previous effort, Limbo. I'm starting to see a trend in their games: no story, no tutorials, no explanation of what is going on or what you're supposed to do and no music. While these elements worked for Limbo in a black-and-white setting, INSIDE feels like a bunch of ideas thrown together which on their own are fine but when grouped together form an incoherent mess. It seems the majority of players prefer an abstract story rather than one with actual meaning. It's much better to stay ambiguous and present your story as abstract and thought-provoking rather than actual committal.

    There's a dystopian world which sets the backdrop for the events of the game, but everything else is a clear copy-paste of Limbo. While I congratulate Playdead on a visually unique presentation, because INSIDE is truly beautiful, the rest of the game falls short. Gameplay is simplistic, and I would argue too easy. For a puzzle platformer, the solutions are often easier to discern than the puzzles themselves.

    But besides the puzzles, many players will find INSIDE enjoyable because of its story, or lack thereof. From what I can tell, there are three layers to the game's story. One is the obvious mind control, which seeks to keep the population of this dystopia in line. Second layer is the notion of free will. It brings up a fundamental question which can be easily missed: Are we truly free? If someone isn't mind controlled, are they truly an individual? The third and final layer is the notion of technology controlling the population, or other people. If there is mind control, there is a controller and the controlled. In either case, what is the fundamental reason for the mind control to happen?

    Unfortunately, INSIDE raises too many questions without any answers. Simplistic gameplay, and basic platforming manage a decent game, but not overwhelmingly magnificent or a masterpiece as some would like to believe.    … Expand

    This is a conflicting game for me. This game has some standout moments that really tug at my intrigue. The world is barren but filled with nods to how this world operates. There are moments in puzzles that feel very satisfying in the moment and then that just feel like they are there as merely only an obstacle, which I guess is what puzzles are, but a lot felt like you could see the goal and that made it more rewarding. I love how violent deaths are and the blankness of the characters throughout this game reminds me of a fascist government ruling with some experimental things ala Akira. But I think its best part is also its greatest weakness, obscurity. There is so much environmental storytelling that it oozes intrigue, but it also doesn't hold me enough because it isn't wholly tangible. Maybe I missed something? Maybe I didn't care enough to scrounge for every bit of detail while playing? I don't know, but the ending part of the game (albeit there are some really cool moments in there too) I didn't like. When the ending credits hit my screen, it was a sigh of defeat than a joy of finishing something wonderful.    … Expand

    Inside should just be called Limbo 2. It's an ok game but it seems the puzzles are easier than Limbo. It is a pretty short game also, l'm not sure why critics were giving this game a 10 as it's nothing special or amazing. It's a good indie puzzle game but that's it.

In addition, the puzzles themselves were either fairly straightforward with little problem solving required or ridiculous obtuse and nearly unsolvable due to the absolutely atrocious amount of the screen that is just blacked out. Even on max brightness, I sometimes couldn’t see objects I was supposed to interact with.

    Atmospherically, the game does a great job of making you feel on edge, but there are a few notable times where the music and ambient sounds will cut out - this isn’t a glitch, just poor sound design. It’s supposed to make you feel odd, unsettled and out of place. It mostly just made me realize that with the minimal visual cues provided by the game, I relied on the sound even more.

    The story is...well let’s just say that if you want to know the story, you would be better served by watching an analysis on YouTube. Pragmatically speaking, all you need to know is that you are trying to do something because the game said so. It won’t tell you anything else directly.

    The pacing is just awful. Graphics are great.

    It’s not a bad game, just very bare bones and honestly should have been fleshed out more. I wouldn’t bother paying more than $10 for it unless you are really into the puzzle platforming genre.    … Expand

    Certain standout moments play unlike any other game. Your first play-through may frustrate but the emotional aftermath hammers home the depth of the achievement. It's the nightmare cousin of Journey. [Oct 2016, p.78]

    An awesome puzzle game with a fascinating style and a dark, but intriguing storyline. Fans of Limbo shouldn't hesitate.
