Welcome to Challenge Radar! This is our brand new video series where you – yes, you, dear reader – can challenge members of the GamesRadar team to complete a specific task in a video game.
We won't know what the task is until we sit down at the Challenge Radar video station, and read the instructions. That way we can't prepare ourselves, or practice at all. The confusion is all part of the fun, apparently. We also can't communicate what the challenge is until all of that week's crew have completed the task.
To kick things off our very own James Jarvis set us the challenge of seeing how far we can get in Limbo with three lives to our name. As you can imagine, it wasn't exactly easy for a game that gets its kicks off killing a small child repeatedly until you learn what to do.
Check out the video below to see how we did:
The GamesRadar crew are ready and waiting to be set your task. If you can think of something seriously challenging that you'd like to set for us to complete, please do let us know in the comments below.

Sam Loveridge is the Brand Director and former Global Editor-in-Chief of GamesRadar. She joined the team in August 2017. Sam came to GamesRadar after working at TrustedReviews, Digital Spy, and Fandom, following the completion of an MA in Journalism. In her time, she's also had appearances on The Guardian, BBC, and more. Her experience has seen her cover console and PC games, along with gaming hardware, for a decade, and for GamesRadar, she's in charge of the site's overall direction, managing the team, and making sure it's the best it can be. Her gaming passions lie with weird simulation games, big open-world RPGs, and beautifully crafted indies. She plays across all platforms, and specializes in titles like Pokemon, Assassin's Creed, The Sims, and more. Basically, she loves all games that aren't sports or fighting titles! In her spare time, Sam likes to live like Stardew Valley by cooking and baking, growing vegetables, and enjoying life in the countryside.
