Limbus Company
by Project Moon
Limbus Company is a dark narrative RPG set in Project Moon's dystopian City — a sprawling mega-structure ruled by corporations called Wings and policed by Fixers. You command twelve Sinners, each named after a literary character, as they search for the Golden Boughs inside the ruins of Lobotomy Corporation. Each Sinner carries trauma, secrets, and E.G.O. — weapons forged from the psyche itself. The City is a place where identity fractures, morality dissolves, and survival means confronting the worst parts of yourself.
