Lost in Limbo [Demo]

When you finally quit your dead-end job and move back to your mother's house in the ever-peaceful town of Faybourne, you think things could only get better. However, the moment you set foot in your childhood home, a harrowing nightmare long forgotten reappears to haunt you once more.

A tower that crumbles in the vastness of a bleeding sky. A voice that mourns and yearns for something.

Nothing could have prepared you for what awaited you behind that door. Nothing and no one could have warned you of the danger you would be in if you returned to that town.

You wouldn't have listened.

Torn away from your peaceful life and thrown into a world of danger and deceit, you are at the mercy of the Seven Sovereigns of Limbo, almighty gods that have sworn to be your protectors...as long as you prove yourself useful.

As the consequences of a plan set in motion long ago start to unveil, will love be the key to your freedom, or the first chapter of your downfall?

✦ DEMO RELEASE DATE: TBA*

*Being extremely positive, we are working to bring you the demo Early 2024, but we don't want to make any promises we can't keep. We are only four people and sadly we can only work on Lost in Limbo in our free time. You can follow us here or on tumblr for monthly updates! ♥

God and creator of Limbo, Father Pride watches over the peace and well-being of his realm, but the life of a god can be solitary. When he welcomes you with open arms, his kindness draws you in...and a perturbing omen makes you stay.

Unapologetically so, Lord Amon lives his life to the fullest and indulges in as many pleasures as he can. His dissarming personality could put anyone at ease, but the Golden Dragon is not as harmless as everyone wants to believe.

Dedicated and brave, Praefectus Raeya takes her role as Limbo's protector extremely seriously, but the truth behind the realm's darkest times will soon put her loyalty —and her ability to keep you out of harm's way— to the test.

Pronounced [ɡaˈel]

Current Master of the Grand Houses, Gael’s sweet and noble persona won the hearts of the citizens of Limbo and has ensured his position for the past five elections. However, the beloved Master has a secret that could end his reputation and plunge his already torn city into chaos.

Stripped of their name and shunned after commiting treason, the Sovereign now known as Lord Envy lives a life of solitude and confinement. Will you be able to break down the walls they have built around themselves for centuries, or will you remain a prisoner in his castle for all eternity?

Kind and caring, Ara is not only determined to make your time in Limbo a happy thing to remember, but also to make things go back to the way they were, no matter the cost. Her dazzling smile hides an ambition and a determination that could serve you well—if both your goals are as aligned as she swears them to be. 

As the youngest Sovereign, no one expects anything from Xal, not even himself. He is seen as a good-for-nothing and a poor excuse of a god, but you two are about to prove everyone wrong. For better or worse, he's the only one who can help you, but what if Xal needs you as much as you need him?
