I think we’ve already been over it before, some time last year when I played Limbo. I’m not a huge fan of puzzle platformers in general so it starts as an uphill battle. There were one or two puzzles I liked (like the anti-gravity stuff was cool), but most I didn’t for various reasons. Most were either frustrating or forgettable. The liquid stuff was a bit overused. Towards the end it got a little too precision platformy and timed for my liking, some with really tight and unforgiving timing. Although I recognise that some people might enjoy that. Story wasn’t really anything either. It’s a cool mood and some decent looking scenes at times but apart from the graphics and art it almost felt like a browser game.

Maybe, that sounds familiar. By the sounds of it, you probably wouldn’t love Inside. You might like it a bit more than Limbo, but it’s got the same things you didn’t like about Limbo, which happen to be the reasons I love both games. The gameplay is basically just a different flavour but it’s quite similar, and it’s also very sparse on story, focusing more on atmosphere and vibes basically, which I actually really like, but it sounds like you don’t.the main focus is definitely on the environment, with everything else sort of on the back burner.
