This game is only available so far from the G2 shop, which apparently doesn't ship to the U.S. I'm curious to know if any of our European gamers are playing it, and what they think of it so far.

I pre ordered from Play.com over a year ago & still waiting ...

I tried ordering this game from G2 about a month ago. After numerous emails to G2, Majestic Studios, and Tim Croucher I finally cancelled the order ( although I still have not received confirmation of this), since communication is very poor to say the least. I was never told they could not ship to the US, although my shipping info was included in each email. Its too bad the publisher has so little interest in customer relations, and I feel the developers have no input into the process. I was very disappointed in the whole transaction. I just hope I get my money back at this point.

Dyl'smom, I have sent you a private message regarding this.

Hi Becky,
I have been playing the game!!, I got a copy from G2....at last. Been waiting ages for it!

It is a shame the publisher is having problems releasing this as the game itself is brilliant even though I am stuck hahahahahaa!!

I do hope you get the chance to play it soon......

Great site by the way!

In response to my post concerning the problems I have had in dealing with G2 and obtaining Limbo of the Lost, Majestic Studios has graciously offered to send me one of their own copies (of which they only have 3), free of charge.
I explained to Steve that it was the publisher's lack of communication I was upset about, I think the developers are trying their best.
I have heard great things about the game, I hope they can get it out there as soon as possible.
Thanks to Majestic Studios!!

Fable -- let us know how it goes! You are one of the very first to play it. And thanks for the encouraging comment re: GameBoomers.

Dyl'smom -- that's fantastic. I hope the developer will autograph it for you.

I am --- I love it.

Hi All,
Well just an update really as I do not wish to spoil it for anyone, but I have to say the Game is a breath of fresh Adventure air in these times of poor and stagnent adventure titles. This is a 100% traditional adventure game and so much thought has gone into every part of it, from the levels to the characters to the puzzles.It really stays with you too even after you have torn yourself away from playing it hahahahahahaha. I have played many games but rarely felt for the main character or the other characters, William Nilmates gets my vote for NPC of the year! hahahahaha

G2 if your reading this.............sort out your publishing probs!!! the Adventure world needs to play this game!

INFERNO - Are you going to do a full review, seeing as you did the preview?? if so please do not let anything out of the bag!

This is an Adventure game that should not be spoilt by anyone prior to playing it.

FABLE -- I would disagree strongly with your characterization of the current crop of adventure games. Also, the GameBoomers reviewers are professionals and do everything within their power not to spoil any part of the plot/puzzles when they write.

Sorry Becky I did not mean the current crop, I was talking generally regarding adventure games, I have played many and there are say a dozen that are great but quite a lot that are very samey, look at the games from ADVENTURE COMPANY they all use the same formula apart from a few.

I know you do not spoil adventure games with your reviews, it's just that there is alot in this game and a full review could spoil some suprises, I am sure INFERNO would agree.

I am mostly talking about full game reviews that you read on the web that in my opinion spoil some suprises, look at THE WITCHER, or OBLIVION reviews and you will see what I mean.

Again sorry did not mean to offend anyone.

Play.com have still got this for release April 2008. Waiting patiently.................zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

No worries --- I'm not offended. I wouldn't want to spoil this for anyone.

This is a huge game.

Inferno - You did not mention if you were going to do a full review of it?

Hope so, so all the forum can get a taste of this great title.

Yes I will be. Can I count on you for help if I get stuck while playing?
inferno

Inferno - If I can help then I wil, depending how far I have got hahahahahaha

Boy are you gonna be sorry you said that ----- lol
I'm already in trouble --- please see the PM I sent you. Fable

inferno

Inferno -PM replied hope this helps hahahahahaha

You are my hero!

PS I've posted a message in Hints that if anyone else starts this game we are here to help. This game is absolutely grand.

I've started this game in ernest yesterday afternoon --- stopped about 1:00AM and got up around 4:30 to begin playing again --- it is so addictive.

Inferno -PM replied

Can someone ask the developers to send my copy & Upsydaisys copy to Play.com, please ......

JennyP -- that isn't up to the developers, but to the publishers (G2), who apparently haven't sent this newly released game to online stores (except for their own).

It's puzzling.

Stranger and stranger! Limbo does not feature anymore on the Play.com website. Could this simply be a pricing issue? they had it for £17.99 with free postage. G2 have it for £29.99 plus P&P.
Perhaps Sherlock or Poiriot could help us here??
