Complete the Secret Level in limbo, a PS3/PC exclusive. Navigate darkness, avoid machine guns, brain slugs, and saw traps.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    As soon as you pass through the gate, it slams shut and the lights go out. Make your way to the right until you find a platform beneath a light.
  2. 2
    Run and jump from below the light to the platform, then immediately jump again to grab the ledge above the horizontal machine gun just before it fires.
  3. 3
    Continue right through the darkness and drop down to another ledge.
  4. 4
    A brain slug will drop on your head; once you climb back up to the platform above the machine gun, jump towards the light in the distance, then quickly jump again to climb the platform before the gun fires.
  5. 5
    Avoid the machine gun again and proceed right. When you reach the light at the far end, you will be turned around.
  6. 6
    Wait for your character to bump into something and start pushing a crate in the dark. Listen for the sound of demonic growth on the ceiling. When it is overhead (near the machine gun), jump onto the box and then up to the roof to remove the brain slug.
  7. 7
    Jump from the platform with the light (left) to minimize your time in the machine gun’s line of fire.
  8. 8
    Move to the right until you find a ladder with a light. Jump towards it and walk to the base. Wait a second or two before climbing, as a horizontal turret has activated and will kill you if you climb immediately.
  9. 9
    Once the gun stops, climb the ladder. At the top, find a second ladder to the left. Grab the very bottom of this ladder to avoid a machine gun positioned 4-5 rungs up. If you hear the gun warming up, quickly move up or down to avoid it. Continue to the top when it is safe.
  10. 10
    Continue left through the dark for a good distance until you reach a ledge you can climb down.
  11. 11
    Drop into the room below. Run to the center and crawl down the ledge of the gap. A large hanging saw moves left to right. Wait for the saw to go over your head, then quickly stand and jump across the gap. Immediately drop off the other side as the saw returns quickly. When it moves right, hop up, run left, and climb out of the room.
  12. 12
    Move right until you reach the next light source. Above you is a ledge, and to the left are sparks from circular saws on the ceiling. Head left to reach a higher platform.
  13. 13
    Run as far left as possible and climb up to a higher platform. Look into the sparks from the closest saw to see a platform passing underneath. Jump to this platform and hang from the end.
  14. 14
    When the platform starts moving back left, climb onto it when between the two saws and run to the right side. Hang from this ledge. Wait for it to move right again, then when past the second saw, stand up and jump across to the higher platform you saw earlier.
  15. 15
    Make your way right until you reach the next light. Here you will find a large saw that moves up and down. Wait for the saw to go up, then proceed right.
  16. 16
    In the darkness, you will encounter two more vertical saw traps. Move forward until you hear the whirring blades. When you think you are close, wait for the noise indicating the blade is lifting, then quickly run right until out of range. Repeat for both saws.
  17. 17
    Continue until you see a flaming tyre above you. Walk out of the passage a short distance and wait for it to drop. Quickly move left to avoid being hit, then run after it.
  18. 18
    A small flaming rock will come after you; keep running right and time a jump so it passes beneath you. Do not stop, as another flaming tyre follows. When you reach the gap, jump to the far side.
Tips
  • Keep an eye on the hero’s eyes in the dark to gauge your position.
  • Time your jumps carefully to avoid the machine guns and saw traps.
  • Listen for audio cues, such as the whirring of saws or the sound of the large saw lifting, to anticipate hazards.
  • Use the crates to reach higher areas when dealing with the demonic growth.
