What if Valencina and Lucio were able to team up with Vergilius in 9-45? [Modded Limbus Company]

Описание:   / discord  

Limbus Company is a dark, narrative-driven strategy RPG developed by Project Moon, serving as both a continuation and expansion of the universe established by their previous titles, Lobotomy Corporation and Library of Ruina. The game carries forward the studio’s trademark blend of psychological depth, existential horror, and intricate lore, while introducing a new, more dynamic form of gameplay that intertwines turn-based combat, real-time chain mechanics, and immersive storytelling.

Set in the dystopian sprawl of The City, Limbus Company follows Dante, a mysterious amnesiac who awakens with a literal clock embedded in their head — a physical reminder of their fragmented memory and uncertain identity. Dante assumes the role of the Manager (a familiar position to long-time Project Moon fans) of a strange and motley group of individuals known as the Sinners. Each Sinner represents one of the seven deadly sins, and each carries within them fragments of stories and personalities drawn from distorted reflections of classic literature. They are both the employees and weapons of Limbus Company, a shadowy organization seeking to reach the Golden Boughs — remnants of Lobotomy Corporation’s experiments and the miraculous energy that once powered the world.

While Lobotomy Corporation portrayed the horrors of managing a facility filled with monstrous “Abnormalities,” and Library of Ruina chronicled the surreal conflicts within an infinite library where guests were literally turned into books, Limbus Company shifts focus to exploration and combat across the underbelly of The City. Here, the Sinners descend into abandoned ruins, forgotten branches of Lobotomy Corp, and territories ruled by powerful syndicates and distorted beings. The game’s world feels alive — teeming with danger, despair, and twisted beauty — as Dante and their team delve deeper into what remains of human ambition and corruption.

Combat in Limbus Company combines the careful planning of Library of Ruina’s emotion-based duels with a faster-paced, almost puzzle-like system. Players link attacks by matching corresponding “sin” affinities to create powerful chains called Resonances, rewarding strategic foresight and synergy between team members. Each Sinner can assume multiple “Identities,” alternate versions of themselves drawn from parallel realities or different outcomes, granting unique skill sets and abilities. This concept mirrors the thematic obsession with identity, guilt, and self-perception that permeates Project Moon’s universe.

Narratively, Limbus Company continues the philosophical tone of its predecessors. Its story explores the cyclical nature of suffering, the cost of human progress, and the fragile boundary between sanity and madness. The writing remains poetic and cryptic, filled with symbolism, allegory, and literary references — a hallmark of Project Moon’s style.

Despite the tonal heaviness, the game’s cast provides moments of levity and emotional resonance. Each Sinner has a distinct personality — from the stoic and enigmatic to the unhinged and comically tragic — and their interactions form the emotional backbone of the journey. These character dynamics unfold through beautifully illustrated story scenes, haunting musical scores, and sharp, introspective dialogue that delves into morality, trauma, and redemption.

Visually, Limbus Company adopts a style that balances 2D illustration with cinematic animation, presenting the game’s dark world in vivid, painterly detail. The environments evoke a sense of decayed grandeur — rusted machinery, flickering neon, and abandoned facilities that whisper stories of the past. The soundtrack, composed by Mili and other contributors, enhances this atmosphere with ethereal melodies and industrial beats that oscillate between melancholy and intensity.

For those familiar with Project Moon’s timeline, Limbus Company represents both a spiritual successor and a direct continuation. It builds upon the ruins left behind by Lobotomy Corporation’s experiments with the energy known as Enkephalin and the Library’s transformation into a repository of human consciousness. Together, these games trace the descent of humanity into obsession and its unending struggle to rebuild meaning from the wreckage.

In essence, Limbus Company is not just another installment in a shared universe — it is the culmination of Project Moon’s evolving narrative philosophy. It weaves together the mechanical precision of a strategy RPG with the emotional and thematic depth of literature, crafting an experience that is both intellectually challenging and deeply human. For returning fans, it’s a reunion with familiar despair. For newcomers, it’s a haunting entry point into one of gaming’s most intricate and poetic dystopias.
