    Interesting but overpriced game. I really enjoyed it, and the DLCs are pretty worth it too.

    It's fun game with good puzzles and sometimes scary too but it's too short you can beat it in 2 hours in your first playthrough,
    If you like horror games it's for you.

    Little Nightmares es un juego muy bueno. Un diseño artístico como pocos en la industria y una jugabilidad más que correcta. La historia también resulta muy intrigante e interesante. Tanto el sonido como la música son sobresalientes. Tiene algunos errores de jugabilidad como caerte en algunas zonas donde no deberías caerte o una duración algo escasa. Aun así, totalmente recomendado paraLittle Nightmares es un juego muy bueno. Un diseño artístico como pocos en la industria y una jugabilidad más que correcta.

    Sympatyczna gra, w której mierzymy się z naszymi małymi lękami. Charakterystycznym dla mnie elementem, z którym najbardziej kojarzę tę produkcję jest muzyka. Klimatycznie gra trzyma wysoki poziom co pozwala z łatwością wczuć się w grę. Styl graficzny przyjemny dla oka, a zagadki jakie oferują nam twórcy są interesujące.

    It's a nice game and scary+puzzle excites people and adds great pleasure to the game. If your computer's video card and processor etc. If it's good, I recommend you to play it.

    El arte y la musica son muy buenas, las mecanicas aunque no son muy dificiles tienen su grado de dificultad, el juego me mantuvo sumergido en el desenado saber que iba a pasar despues de principio a fin,

    Little nightmares has amazing atmosphere. Very short but concise game. I finished in 4,5 hours, but it worths the money and time. It is horror, platformer game.

    Fantastic experience, mood, graphcis, etc, this game's only problem is that the sequel (prequel?) is just better in every way

    Little Nightmares is one of my favorite games. It reminds me of Limbo but LN have more thrilling events, where you have to run for your life and try not to end in bubbling pot. Limbo is more puzzle-ish game. Here are also puzzles (especially in DLC) but less. Furthermore it has great, creepy and unforgettable soundtrack, cool graphics and overall perfect atmosphere.

    This game is scarier than you might think. With its 2.5 D environments it takes you on a very nice short trip through a cold and unforgiving world. The clay style art is also really unique and adds to the whole feel of the game. It gives off some Tim Burton vibes. The twist at the end is really well done. Looking forward to playing the sequel

    This game is more of a puzzle - platformer game with elements of horror.

Most of the game involves finding a lever to pull, or finding a key and putting it in a lock, or sneaking around a giant monster behind their backs as they turn around. Sometimes you have to figure out interesting ways to climb to the top of the ceiling by trial and error. Gameplay wise, it’s really fun and it’s a little scary. For example, I was sweating bullets as I snuck around a giant scary looking chef chopping meat up. I didn’t know what to do in the level so I panicked and tried everything to figure out how to get out of the room. I was super relieved to figure out the solution on my own after dying a couple times from the ugly chef. Hint: Sometimes I overthink it so the solution is usually the easiest one!

    In the beginning of the game, there are no tutorials. Only if you get stuck for a while, the game hint pop up reminds you of a button you should press you’ll need to get around the level. I used an XBOX one controller and it worked great. I highly recommend using an XBOX controller for this game. There were no bugs I came across and it was smooth throughout. Being on ultra settings on my PC, graphics were super detailed and gave a perfectly spooky vibe throughout. Very dark rooms and disgusting looking textures everywhere.

    It is a really, really short game but a good one as it can easily be beaten in around 3-4 hours. I wish it was longer!

    Story-wise, I don’t fully understand it but it gets dark very, very quickly. Avoiding spoilers, I was shocked at some of the things the main character did. I was shocked at some of the disgusting things that happened in this game. It is mildly depressing and it truly is a scary nightmare. But in the perspective of your main character, a young female child. The game does not have a narrator or text to tell the player what is going on in the story. It is all done through the gameplay and silent cutscenes. In fact, not a single word is spoken in this game. You’d have to come up with your own interpretation or look up online to find out what the story is about.

    There is some replicability in the game, there’s unlockables and lots of hidden items that will unlock concept art in the main menu. If you go out of the way, you might spot details you didn’t see before and find new areas with a hidden item.

    Overall, this game is totally worth playing. A shorty but a goody as it can easily be beaten in one day. I just wish it was a little longer! The developers also made a bunch of DLC, a mobile game, and another game called Little Nightmares 2. I look forward to playing them soomeday to find out more about this very interestingly dark story. An easy 9/10.

    Do you like Limbo and Inside? If so, Little Nightmares will be right up your alley. The game is less original and expressive as Playdead's titles though.

    Music and sounds of the Maw make an already atmospheric game even better. The cry of surprise and righteous indignation that Chef Twins let out once they find Six prowling around their kitchen will surely come to haunt you in your dreams. [Issue#221, p.93]

    Little Nightmares is truly poor by the gameplay, but it's a very intense breathtaking one-timer, what warm-up your black soul especially thanks to the brilliant design of ship interior full of horrors. [Issue#275]
