If you’ve never played it, you need to rectify that immediately.

“As far as puzzle platformers go, Inside is the new benchmark. This is a game that manages to spin a compelling yarn without uttering a single word, and one that is designed so meticulously that the puzzles it contains never once become rote or frustrating.” – Push Square

“Inside very clearly builds upon what made Limbo great, and in fact builds something greater. Its unimaginable twist may leave you dumbfounded, confused, and quite possibly speechless, but it will fuel heated discussion with your friends about its meaning, its message, and its intentions.” – IGN

“I loved the implications of Limbo’s ending, it’s something that I think about quite often still, but Inside’s final chapter is the kind of thing that keeps you awake at night. It’s an unrelenting storm of nightmarish realities that completely blindsides you, and then things just get weirder from there.” – PSN Stores

“A blast for your conception of a classical videogame. Extremely clever in its gameplay design. Don’t underestimate its sparse graphics and sound. It’s all part of the plan.” – Hobby Consolas

Initially released in 2016, Inside came from the same people behind the starkly beautiful and quietly devastating Limbo, and just like that platformer, this one went on to become one of the best games of recent years, clocking up amazing reviews and countless End Of Year awards.

This week, following a release on the PS4, Xbox One and PC, the game will now be available for your iPhone and iPad.

Best of all, you can start playing it for free, as you won’t need to pay for it until you reach a certain point within the game.

And trust us, once you get to that point, you’ll definitely find yourself forking over the £7 to get access to the rest of this jaw-dropping experience.
