## 6. Inside

Inside is a puzzle solving and dark theme game known for its dark story telling and difficult puzzles. just like Limbo Inside also offers different obstacles as the game progress to make the game harder.

By my personal experience Inside is actually easier than Limbo. However, it definitely have a better storyline.
