This War of Mine is a very heavy game. You have to manage your character's mental states as well as simply keeping them safe, warm, and fed. You need to do things that will cheer them up. Some characters are rather selfish while others really care about others a lot and are easy to damage. When playing with only one character (which is unusual, as you usually have three or four), you have no one to defend your home from looters while you're out scavenging, so they will get depressed when people break in and steal things. I didn't really know what I was doing and left him depressed for too long and he hung himself. It was pretty shocking.
When one of your characters gets killed or dies from illness, that's it, they're gone for good and you're left with whatever characters you have left. Though, sometimes, someone else will knock on your door and ask to join your group.
I own Limbo but I haven't played it, as I don't really care for platformers.
