    I’ve very much enjoyed the game. The dark and foggy setting has given it a Silent Hill feel. There are definitely a few scares along the way and as far as the story goes I thought it was very good. The thought the characters were much better compared to the last. Well done to everyone involved, I look forward to the next.

    Having played it through it twice (in single player & movie night mode) Little Hope is a big improvement over Man of Medan. Everyone had fun in movie night mode and the intriguing story kept everyone guessing. Loads of fun, like-able characters and well paced. The ending was a bit divisive - but besides that its supermassives best story yet.

I found that the twist was earned (once I pieced the clues together and after a second play through)and made sense. Whether others like it or not is subjective, but I understand that people won’t like the twist. But I found the story to be great up until the twist. My problem with Man of Medan’s twist was that I figured it out immediately during the prologue so that ruined the experience. Not the twist itself, but when I learned of it. I liked that this happens at the end and made me think about the story again in a new light. There is a lot of walking around and they could do to streamline it a bit - or at least put more interactions along the way. All in all I liked it a lot and would recommend.… Expand

Yes, Little Hope is a passing project that has never been the Until Dawn level. But Supermassive Games is moving in the right direction. I personally liked Little Hope, especially the ending.

Although it's game, Little Hope gameplay and story telling are tied to its horror sub genre, leaning towards trauma, redemption and psychological horror, while Until Dawn it's a classic cabin in the woods story. So If you like slow paced horror that plays on trauma I definitely recommend this game. Acting is okay, Will Poulter is actually really good on his multiple characters and they feel distinct, game play is a bit tuned down when comparing with Until Dawn which again I think is intended as this game leans more towards atmosphere than action.… Expand

    My main complaints are A) that there were some glitchy moments (not many, largely graphics issues) and B) that the big twist of the game was essentially the same as Man of Medan- I won't spoil it, but if you've played both games you'll know what I mean.

    I'm not usually one to do the "Oh, ignore the bad reviews" thing, but I will say this: Much like Until Dawn and Man of Medan, Little Hope is not an action-packed game. It's a lot of walking, relationship/character development, and making choices that determine the outcome of the game.

    Some people are into that, and some people are not.

    Also, re: the ending: Much like Man of Medan, whether or not the ending comes as a surprise depends entirely on how many "Secrets" you've found within the game. The dots connect a lot easier if you've been keeping an eye out for the Secrets.

    The game wasn't perfect, but overall I thought it did a good job.    … Expand

    Little Hope is an enjoyable interactive soft horror movie, almost as good as the first one of this series. I much appreciate the 60 fps on PS5 and the full audio translation. But for some reason the HDR implementation is completely broken, so I need to switch to SDR for the whole game and let PS5 apply the Auto HDR, which looks a way better than the native one.

    I like Little Hope more than Man of Medan. Interesting story with a few jump scares, a perfect game for a Halloween night.
    What dropped out the score is the fact that some dialogues seem out of place here and there and another thing is that around half of the story the game crashed, corrupted my saves and I had to go back from the beginning.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you were expecting horror as i jump scares, this is not that. This is a game that delves more into psychological horror than anything else. The whole fun of playing this was trying to connect all the plots together yourself as it was very apparent they were all connected. It is a bit of a slow start and can be finished in about 4 hours if you are ignoring everything. The graphics are as good as they need to be. I think the twist with Anthony imagining everything to try and cope with the loss of his family is 100% earned and made it worth playing, and made the second playthrough even better knowing how it is all connected. Way better than Man of Medan.
    I have played this game 4 times now, movie night, shared story, and solo story, and have not encountered any bugs. This game is all about trying to solve the mystery and dig deep into its themes, requiring multiple playthroughs to understand everything, which makes its "short" length appropriate.    … Expand

    Little hope is the second game in the dark pictures anthology, a series of interactive movie like games from the team that brought you until dawn.. and while I enjoyed Little Hope much better than man of medan, theres still a lot to be desired here…
    Little Hope is a 4 our long interactive horror game that can be played solo or with a friend, here you play as a group of people after a bus swerves and crashes, youre all stuck in this abandoned ghost town called little hope with no way to escape.. the bus driver is missing and youll all set out to find him and also a way to find help.. while youre walking around youll ocassionally run into the little demon ghost girl, shell grab you and youre thrown into the past, as half of the game takes place in the 1690s witch trials.. and this are the best parts of the game.. I would have loved to play the entire game in this setting, the visuals, the acting, the charcters.. the eriness.. I loved when a ghost would grab me and take me back… and youre basically trying to solve the mystery of this little demon girl and why everyone in the past looks like the group of people youre with. Sadly the present day is so boring to get through… It was really hard to pay attention during these moments of basically just walking forward and interacting with stuff waiting to get grabbed again… that’s literally what it feels like, even when monsters are introduced to the game.. and for the first time playing a supermassive game, I felt like nothing had consequences, I felt like none of my choices ultimately mattered, leaving little to no replay value to be had here… obviously I don’t want to get into spoilers as this is a heavy story based game, but the ending here is the ending, it cant be changed, all that can be changed is the lead up to the revelation… really disappointing.
    Overal though I loved this story way more than Man of Medans.. the parts of the game that take place in the oast, and trying to come up with the answer to this games story as I played made it all worth it…
    Though the story is one you have little to no impact on this time and are more so just along for the ride… the story definitely saves this game from mediocrity.

    It's alright. It's not on par with Until Dawn, but it is better than Man of Medan to me.

    When I first played through this at launch, I was indifferent. I replayed it again recently and... yeah. I can comfortably say I like this better than Man of Medan.

The story is interesting, and I appreciate the direction they took it. The boat environments in Medan got old to me - quick. The woods and whatnot in this game didn't. Your mileage may vary in that regard.

    The main issue with these games typically, for me, is the characters. The pack in this game is equally meh to Man of Medan. I like how they handled characters in Until Dawn, there was a lot of variation, a lot to like, and a lot to (intentionally) dislike. They really had you do different things and go down varied paths with all the characters. The first two games in this new anthology don't do those things nearly as well as Until Dawn did. A solid experience nonetheless.    … Expand

The atmosphere was so creepy and cool just awesome. The performances from Will Poulter, Ellen David, Holly Smith, Alex Ivanovici, Caitlyn Sponheimer, and Kyle Bailey were superb. The visuals and motion capture were good but at times the motion capture was off. The choice-and-consequence system is just super confusing and hard to figure out what is the right choice. The worst part and the downfall of the game is the twist ending which pretty much almost ruined the entire game. So, overall the game was good but no where near great but was pretty enjoyable gameplay wise.… Expand

Voice acting is just bearable except the "past events" stuff which seems forced to sound slightly different but just comes off as bad.

    The amount of glitches and bugs are the only scary things to be seen in this game, at one point on the PS4 my character literally fell off the map: link omitted per site rules.

    Also never exit to menu from the game itself, it'll 90% crash on the opening screen with the curator in a never ending loop. Always completely exit out of the game, kill the app and restart.

    You make decisions, move a 3d representation of the character in the clunkiest stuff this series has shown us yet and generally QTE your way to freedom. The only downside is it contains more of those "move to this position and hit the button in 2 nano seconds" towards the end, making it frustrating rather than enjoyable.

    There is nothing new here, and the story isn't that good. Go get the stand by stephen king on kindle; read that instead. And if you wanna follow a bunch of college kids through murder and enjoy it, get "the secret history" either are way more enjoyable experiences than this.... thing.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. From somebody who unironically loved Man of Medan and also adores Until Dawn this game was a huge letdown. Not only for the twist that ruins any kind of replayability since nothing really matters and is extremely linear but all the characters suck. Daniel and Andrew are devoid of any personality, Taylor is annoying from beginning to end and is needlessly difficult for most of the game always trying to argue over anything. John and Angela are basically the only two I gave a rat's ass about since they were fun characters. Angela with her snarky comments but badass attitude by the endgame and John development from a scared old asthmatic man to a badass person who tries his best to help people (depending on your choices he can literally save every other character except Andrew). The plot was somewhat intriguing until the twist happens completely nullifying the experience since they basically do the same twist from the previous game but MUCH worse. Technically speaking this is a much better produced the game, movements are fluid and it's a bit more action packed than Medan but it just takes to much time to get started and first two hours are a bit of a bore (mostly due to Daniel and Taylors side of the story which is very boring if you don't really care about them). Overall it's fine I guess but the twist and the 3 of the 5 characters really makes me just not give this game anything higher than a 6. I also forgot all characters basically live or die by ONE decision you make in the whole game. Yeah, this game is really bad compared to Medan, Hope the next one is much better cause this one was not really worth it.… Expand

    The first game was boring and uninspired. But I had high hopes for this new chapter, with the whole witch and little US town thing. The game actually starts with a bang, I was excited. And then, pitch black. Ever wondered what's like to play a game and just hear the audio? Well, that's Little Hope for you. 90% I was pretty much just checking my own reflection on the tv, even with the brightness settings on 100%, drapes closed, nothing works.

    Also, the narrative itself is so messy. it's like:

    11:59 - oh, sh*t we are lost and need to get the hell out of this place!
    12:00 - we need to investigate these witch trials and understand what happened!

    It just makes zero sense to me. It feels rushed, filled with plot holes. It was hard for me to get into it, to care about the characters and their dialogues. But it's like a cheesy scary movie and I'm fine with that. The major problem, in my honest opinion, is the brightness settings. Jesus Christ the game is almost unplayable sometimes. Oh, and from time to time, the characters don'r even have their light sources anymore (phones, flashlights) which makes exploration so much better. I have no idea how this was approved. I'm all for a dark, scary atmosphere, but this is plain stupid.

    Hope the developers keep working on these games, though. Like I said, I really believe they have great ideas. But please, just make it actually scary and playable. I want to be able to watch what I am playing.    … Expand

Characters died kind of randomly and their personalities were all over the place, even within the scope of 3 sentences, it all felt like a bad dream that makes no sense. I guess that's what happens when the game is driven by jumpscares instead of the story, and you'll really trying to make the jumpscares frequent and shocking instead of trying to make the story add up.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pros:
    The graphics look realistic
    When there is violence, it's very gory
    The QTE prompts are more forgiving
    The characters are good
    Multiplayer

    Cons:
    The story (specifically the ending)
    Not scary
    The decision system/ impacts
    some multiplayer decisions

    spoliers below

    Little hope fails to bring an interesting plot. It works for the first half of the game, where you will spend a long time walking and walking and walking. They do this to attempt making tension, but in actuality it's just boring. Characters, who although are slightly better than the series' predeccesor, still suffer from being plain. Taylor, for example, will repeatedly make player choices redundant. After a bus crashes in the game, the team is left stranded in a town called Little Hope. There, Taylor will suggest waiting by the bus. It doesn't matter whether or not you make her "change" her mind, because she will always announce that her idea is better than anyone elses. Another character that they should have developed further is Andrew. Andrew is... nice. There is not much to say about Andrew, since he doesn't actually impact the story, until at the very end, when it's revealed that everything that has happened in the story has actually been a hallucination INCLUDING THE CHARACTERS AND THE PLOT!!! Why make such a intriguing story, only to dump it out the window with a lame and childish ending. This is especially concerning, as the game is part of an anthology, and the previous game also had the same ending (hallucination). This makes me not want to get the next game, because I can already guess the "plot-twist".

    This is my biggest complaint with the game. None of the decisions actually matter. It doesn't matter if John dies, because guess what? He never existed in the first place. For a game about desicions, there is not a lot of consequences and different branches of playthroughs.

    My second biggest complain is the multiplayer mode. I don't know about online coop as I've never tried it (and won't), but shared story, in which you assign each person as one character, is a total design failure. Angela, is an elderly lady that you can control in the game. She's a great doesn't actually exist character, but sadly is gone from the game for about 70%. And when she does come back, she can die really quickly. This is extremely unfair to those who have chosen Angela to play as, since they will only play as her for a tiny bit of the game. Worse, during high action scenes, it becomes pointless to even select a character. Some scenes have two characters running from danger and the game just switches characters. I played this with my brother (I was Taylor, he was Daniel). He was running from a demon, hitting the generous QTEs, when the game just switched to Taylor. Although she survived, it made me wonder as to why suddenly Taylor's fate relied on my brother... if I picked her?

    However, I don't want to leave this review on a sour note, and thankfully I DO have some good things to say about it. This game's graphics are beautiful. They're really realistic, which I think is idealystic for a horror game. Also, the soundtrack is awesome, though I'm not sure if I like their "O death" song, as it was made for their other game Until Dawn (not part of the anthology), and I don't really see a point for it to be in the game, other than nostalgia. This game's QTE's are more meaningful (before the horrid end).

    Overall: 4/10    … Expand

    I had little hope for this game to begin with because i didn't like Man of Medan that much. But this game is much worse, it fails at everything it tries to do. Terrible dialogues, the big majority of the choices don't matter, the ending would be awful even if this game was good, the game is full of boring jumpscares, the old villagers accent makes no sense because back then there was noI had little hope for this game to begin with because i didn't like Man of Medan that much.

Spoilers: 1. You can't save the doubles but the game always pretends like you can

    2. They try to pretend like the little girl as at fault but it doesn't work because we see the reverend intimidating her. 3. It does not matter if you hide or run away or fight the monsters (only your relationship stats go up).    … Expand

    Very nice and interesting story absolutely ruined by terrible interface and QTE management. Screamers are also bad as that's the last and cheapest thing you should use to scare the player. On PS5 the game stucks on loading close to the last scene, and even the reinstall or other decision before that doesn't help. In a conclusion, the game is not ready for a production even a year afterVery nice and interesting story absolutely ruined by terrible interface and QTE management.

    There is some mystery in this and the graphics are good however it has a dissapointing ending and ultimatley fairly boring gameplay with unlikeable and stilted characters with lazy delivery. I think its better the Man of medan marginally as much fewer bugs to be seen.

    This is just boring. I'm not even sorry to say that i didn't enjoy this game. Maybe people who generally don't care about horror movies or games will like it, but i'm hardcore horror games fan (dead space, silent hill 2 etc) and to me this was just extremely meh.

    Questo gioco non è molto diverso da Men of Medan, ha un cast di personaggi ancora più generico e un pessimo finale come il suo predecessore. Un gioco del genere film interattivo dovrebbe avere come punto di forza un buon cast e una buona trama, ma i giochi di questa serie non hanno nessuno di questi requisiti.

    Slightly better than first but still bad at every aspect and the twist is extremely lazy.

    These games just keep getting worse.. It incredibly boring. Story is predictable and its just feels like what it is a budget title.. There no game play to speak of , just walking around as jump scares happen, This can work (it did in Untill Dawn with its campy silliness and attractive interesting characters), but it dosent here, with the crap story and weird looking characters

    One thing that really gets me with these Dark Anthology games are the Faces>> Especially the female faces.. They are literally the only truly terrifying thing in these games. All the face look plastic and badly animated, but the girls get some special treatment, they are truly ugly and hard to watch. For a game that relies so much on character interaction its a hugh fail.    … Expand

    What distinguishes Little hope from horror movies is that you don’t get to be annoyed about clichés or numerous bad decisions by its characters. No it is not a good idea to wander off alone when a killer is on the loose, nor should you explore that creepy basement by yourself. Yet, in this game, only one person is responsible for his bad judgement: you.

    Little Hope is a return to form for Supermassive Games. After the somewhat slow and dry Man of Medan, Little Hope arrives with a narrative audacity and assured performances that place The Dark Pictures Anthology squarely on the top of the interactive filmic adventure game heap. With a rich, complex, and wickedly surprising narrative, Little Hope is well worth playing, despite some awkward moments and transitions.

    Little Hope is a fantastic horror experience that really shows what Supermassive can do with the Dark Pictures series. Though it's a short experience and it exhibited a crash during review, it's a fantastically crafted thrilling drama with amazing characters who are genuinely fun to interact with. If this kind of game is something that seems interesting, don't pass up on this experience!
