We have many video games set in heaven or hell. What about the Purgatory, or Limbo? Let’s not forget these places where sprits linger. Welcome to the list of best games set in Purgatory and Limbo.
These two places can be seen in many religions, including the ancient ones. Yet we see the catholic version in most media.
Purgatory and limbo according to catholic doctrine:
- Purgatory is a passing intermediate state after physical death for purifying or purging a soul. – Wikipedia
- Limbo is the afterlife of those who die in original sin without being assigned to the Hell. – Wikipedia
Now the two are very different in nature but we see both as the same in most literature, movies, and games. At least the setting is similar. They’re neither heaven nor hell.
