Are you playing limbo yet ?

If not then I would seriously suggest you get it now. It's available on PSN/XBOX/STEAM

Limbo (stylized as LIMBO) is a puzzle-platform video game and the premiere title of independent Danish game developer Playdead. The game was released in July 2010 as a platform exclusive title on Xbox Live Arcade, and was later re-released as part of a retail game pack along with Trials HD and 'Splosion Man in April 2011. Ports of the game to the PlayStation Network and Microsoft Windows via Steam were created by Playdead, released after the year-long Xbox 360 exclusivity period was completed. Limbo is a 2D sidescroller, incorporating a physics system that governs environmental objects and the player character. The player guides an unnamed boy through dangerous environments and traps as the boy searches for his sister. The developer built the game's puzzles expecting the player to fail before finding the correct solution. Playdead called the style of play "trial and death", and used visually gruesome imagery for the boy's deaths to steer the player from unworkable solutions.

The game is presented primarily in monochromatic black-and-white tones, using lighting, film grain effects and minimal ambient sounds to create an eerie atmosphere often associated with the horror genre. Journalists praised the dark presentation, describing the work as comparable to film noir and German Expressionism. Based on its aesthetics, reviewers classified Limbo as an example of "video game as art".

Looks like, the more simple a game is these days, the higher the ratings

If you think Limbo is simple, then you are clearly deluded. A great number of the puzzles have had me scratching my head in frustration.

What I love most about the game, though, is that it's challenging, but not to the point that you're likely to get stuck somewhere for longer than 5 minutes. Often all it takes when you're sitting still somewhere is to figure out a single thing, and then the rest of the puzzle falls in place. Gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling inside.

True, you die, you scratch your head but it's not frustrating at all.

Haha....damn right.
