Master Limbo's Chapter 27 with our guide! Learn to solve the cog puzzles, use pressure pads, and swing across electrified floors to progress. Get past the tricky chain section and onward!

Alright, we're heading into Chapter 27, and this one's all about using those big, clunky cogs to your advantage. The title here is "Climbing the Cog," and the main thing to remember is: don't just pull that lever the second you see it!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start in a room with a platform and a lever. Pulling this switch activates the giant cog. Your first task is to get a box onto this cog. Push the box all the way up to the cog, and it'll get carried over to the right side.
  2. 2
    Once the box is on the right, hop onto the cog yourself and ride it up. You'll reach a platform above. Grab the crate on this platform and push it onto the cog. This time, ride the cog back down to the ground level.
  3. 3
    Now, look to your right. You'll see a pressure pad. Step on it, and a section of the ground to the right will rise up. You need to use this. Push one of the crates you have as far as you can towards the right wall. Then, push the second crate onto the pressure pad you just activated.
  4. 4
    As the platform rises with the second crate, quickly jump across to it. Use the crate that's now on the rising platform to reach the ledge above.
  5. 5
    Once you've made it up, you'll need to get both crates to the right side of the cog mechanism. Position them so you can access the higher platform on the right.
  6. 6
    Continue moving right. You'll come across a switch and then a chain suspended over an electrified floor. Don't hit the switch yet! First, get on the chain and start swinging it back and forth. Build up as much momentum as you can.
  7. 7
    Once the chain is swinging high, jump back to the left and hit that switch. Immediately run back to the chain and jump on it as it swings towards you. Use the momentum to swing across the electrified floor to the other side.
  8. 8
    From there, drop down the ledge. You're through this section!
Tips
  • The cog moves pretty slowly, so be patient when riding it.
  • Make sure you push the crates *onto* the cog, not just next to it.
  • When swinging on the chain, don't jump too early or too late. Timing is key to making the gap.
