Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Playdead's LIMBO at none against Reckless Racing 2's 4. Playdead's LIMBO also leads on ratings volume (2.7K vs 123). Reckless Racing 2's advantage is price ($1.99 vs $3.99) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On rating, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Reckless Racing 2 costs $1.99 and Playdead's LIMBO $3.99 up front. Reckless Racing 2 sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Playdead's LIMBO asks for nothing beyond the download.
Playdead's LIMBO holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Playdead's LIMBO has 2.7K ratings behind it against 123, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 71% of Reckless Racing 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.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 11, 2026 respectively.
