About the Game

Limbs is a one to two player dexterity game where you take control over the limbs of a string puppet. Immerse yourself in a handcrafted world where moving each limb individually makes for challenging but rewarding and hilarious gameplay. Playfully swing, jump and manually walk as best as you can through a knackered kingdom while progressing through a story inspired by puppet theater storytelling.

Features

Control two limbs at a time: In single player you switch the control between arms and legs, while in two player mode both players take control over one arm and one leg.




Make your limbs work together to master a unique gameplay loop: Even if the tasks you perform would be easy in another game, the coordinative nature makes them challenging.



You choose how to move your character: Just like a real puppeteer all character motions are under your control.



Intuitive cooperative gameplay: After a while players start to get in tune with each other and perform actions together even without communicating verbally.
