ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Playdead's LIMBO holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Playdead's LIMBO has 2.7K ratings behind it against 126, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Can Knockdown 2's written reviews are positive against 69% of Playdead's LIMBO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Can Knockdown 2 ships an update every 2 months, Playdead's LIMBO every 3 months. Both last shipped on October 26, 2026.
