Inside is a 2016 puzzle-platform horror game developed and published by Playdead. The game was released for the Xbox One in June 2016, Windows in July, and PlayStation 4 in August, followed by releases for iOS in December 2017, Nintendo Switch in June 2018, and macOS in June 2020. The player controls a boy in a dystopian world, solving environmental puzzles and avoiding death. It is Playdead's second game following Limbo (2010), sharing similar 2.5D gameplay.

Runs well on modern hardware.

reminder that this game has an ARG that still hasnt been solved after a little over 10 years or so now! if you liked this game, please consider lending your support over to the unofficial Playdead discord at https://discord.gg/gTv7Rxxwqa also if you own the game on other platforms it could also be helpful in the future as they've made parts of the ARG involve the game on multiple platforms :3
One of the few games I would call truly unforgettable. Inside achieves something remarkably difficult: It is simple without ever feeling simplistic; Its music and sound design are restrained but deeply expressive; Its guidance system teaches you what to do without constantly telling you; and its level design gradually raises the difficulty without ever feeling unfair. But what stays with me most is its narrative. The game trusts the player enough to leave things unexplained. It does not tell you what to think. Instead, it leaves behind images, questions, and an uneasy feeling that continues long after the screen goes dark. Robert McKee argues that great stories do more than entertain us - they give form to our search for meaning and truth. Inside achieves exactly that without explaining itself. Sometimes, the most powerful ending is the one that leaves you speechless.
beautiful game. my favorite game being little nightmares, this game was such a good find. i would recommend playing through, definitely worth the time.
