Game • 2023

Limbus Company is a darkly stylish turn-based strategy RPG from Project Moon, set in the same universe as Lobotomy Corporation and Library of Ruina. As the Manager of Limbus Company, you must command a crew of twelve "Sinners"—distorted individuals based on classic literature—aboard the Mephistopheles bus. Your mission is to retrieve the Golden Boughs, powerful relics scattered across the ruins of a dystopian City. The game features a unique clash-based combat system where winning skill clashes is key to victory. Deep team customization is achieved through the "Identity" system, allowing you to assign different roles and skill sets to each Sinner. Uncover a grim narrative as you battle abnormalities, rival syndicates, and the inner demons of your own crew.
