The Limbo Zone

Games that I started, but never got around to finishing it or want to give a second go.


Finishing a Rouge Like might be an oxymoron, but idc: I only played a bit of it and I can definitely see one sinking their teeth in and really divin in - I just can't for now. I got other shit to deal with.
I am putting this preemptively (I only had one session with a friend of mine), but I doubt I will ever boot it up again.
Just going through the reviews here on Backloggd and just reading stuff like "this is part of 6-part-long blahahah" whatever put me off to continuing it. I played it a few years ago but dropped it because I wasn't "ready" for such a time sink. That and I felt the beginning was a slog.
Oddworld is a weird one - this game looks super cool and all, but all my friends think it looks like dogshit. I never played any cinematic platformers (I dont even know if Oddworld counts as one), but from the first bit I played (the escape), I was very much enjoying it. I never got around to finishing it in 2015, so maybe this year it'll be the year where I play Oddworld!
I bought the game when it was just Shovel Knight. For 20 bucks I got 4 games included (pretty epic deal ngl). I want to get back to this series and play through it all, since I really enjoyed the original Shovel Knight, now called "Shovel of Hope". We'll see when that time comes.
Still not sure if I should play it through the Gold version or through like a GOG version with some mods.... I like it, but takes a bit to get used to the gameplay after having played alot of modern games.
Something about the game just put me off - I don't know if it's the aesthetic, the "language-system", the clowns, or anything. I feel like I have been too hard on this game and as such want to reevaluate my half-star rating I gave it. I only played like the first half hour of it, but just bounced off, feeling appalled (for some reason).
Sheesh, I sure play a lot of rougelikes... It's fun but I never really got motivated to finish a run... that and I am bad at the game.
This counts for the entire Deponia franchise. I have tried to play the first one multiple times, but I always get stuck on some puzzle and just frustratingly quit the game. (rather than lookin at a guide) The games look super charming and I really wanna get to play them one day.
I played it when it was in early access. I only like 5 hours, but I enjoyed my time with it. I shelved it so I can play it "when it is done". It's apparently done, but I haven't gotten around to it.

The only thing that I remember were the janky ball puzzles and the weird controls - I hated that I had to move my mouse up close to perform melee attacks and while the controller has the melee attack dedicated to a button, aiming with it is just a no-go in my eyes. Anyway I still wanna finish it one day.
So my family had guests one night and I was "tasked" with "amusing" the small little lad they had. But I didn't wanna bother with this kid so I thought "what kind of game can I play that looks boring for an 8 year old?" and my answer was Thomas was Alone. My intuition failed me. I didn't get any of the writing or story (mainly because he was just askin me questions non stop) and twenty minutes in he demanded that he shall play this game. I just handed him the controller, watched him agonizingly fail for the next thirty minutes until I decided to just close my pc and go for a walk (without this kid).

Probably a great game idk.

Steam says I played for 80 minutes... I think I was right before the end, but I just dropped it. Kinda questioning if I should just jump in and finish it, but that is too cumbersome...
Now, I dont even know how I got around playin this game: All I knew was that I wasn't a fan of the motion controls and I just dropped it. However, lookin at footage of it, it looks interesting? Idk I dont got a wii anymore, so I'll have to get it runnin on dolphin...
Truly a Limbo Zone game - I don't know when or IF I can even finish the game. It truly pummels me from left to right without any mercy but god dayum do I adore this game.
One day I will finish this game.... it's not even hard or anything, but I always stopped playin it right before the end. I'll get to it once I go through the entire Mario & Luigi series.
I kinda got like halfway through, took a small break and... kinda forgot about it lmao. I don't know why I haven't finished it - It's a super fun game. But it has been quite awhile since I played it and I frankly cannot remember a single thing about it, so I would have to start over....
Despite havin' grown up with Sonic Games, I don't know if I actually like the general gameplay of the OG 2D Sonics. The level design kinda killed it for me. I need to get back to it one day and finish it, but I don't know when that time is.
I'm a scaredy cat. I am extremely bad when it comes to horror games, yet they intrigue me the most. I know this is like the most basic horror game out there, but I want this to represent as a gateway for this genre.
I just want to get to the end once - kinda lost steam a month ago, but I still wanna dig in?

I am not really a fan of the game being so reliant on the rng weapon drops - that and weapons need to be unlocked. Having massive bulletsponges in conjunction with kinda sluggish (slow) movement makes the game rather annoying to play later on.
Don't feel inspired to ever boot up this game... There is something about this stale-ass setting that just denies me from any possible fun I could have with this game. I frankly thought I didn't like Strategy/Tactics games, but I am having a blast with Fire Emblem sooo
My brother gifted me a switch alongside Breath of the Wild - I havent gotten past the Plataeu content and I am so mad of myself. I just NEED to get myself to play it - it's not that it is bad, but I am never in the mood to play the game.
