It's up to you, Nemo, to save them! Explore Slumberland and collect your toys to become more powerful, enlist the help of colorful characters, and push back the Oblivion.

    Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland takes the retro NES-era platformer gameplay of Capcom and Nintendo favorites and brings it to a vast, non-linear world that has been lovingly hand-animated frame-by-frame.

    You'll explore as you collect new ability-granting toys and PJs, discover enchanting lands inspired by Winsor McCay's Little Nemo comics, and encounter a colorful cast of characters - all through the nostalgic lens of an '80s/'90s kid.

    Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland is a fantastic 2D platformer/Metroidvania that is far deeper and more entertaining than it appears, and should satisfy any gamer looking for a non-linear adventure.

    With the nostalgia of childhood dreams, Little Nemo and the Guardians of Slumberland builds a visually excellent presentation with great attention to detail. Beyond its beautiful appearance, the nonlinear world and efficient map are great invitations to explore this Metroidvania adventure, which has heavier movements than I would like, but which, overall, offers a true delight both for those who are still in childhood and for those who remember it.
