Denmark

Notable Developers: Playdead, IO Interactive

Notable Games: LIMBO, Hitman: Absolution

Denmark's most notable literary contribution was the birth of Hans Christian Andersen and his collection of fairy tales that mixed morality and dark humor for a haunting blend of childish wonder and nightmare fuel. It seems Playdead hopes to keep Copenhagen's tradition alive and well with LIMBO, injecting a great deal of the macabre into an otherwise playful adventure tale.
