Fantastic game made of quality and care

Little Nightmares is a great game, this game + the DLC I have played twice within a week of each other as I had so much fin the first time and was fun to explore around. Total time of thsi is 16.5 hours (Main game taking 4.5 hours, and the DLC just over 4 hours), many prople probably wouldn't play the game as slowly as this but I felt a need to explorer everywhere and spend more time amongst the atmosphere and design of the game even if there is a chance nothing in some areas. If someone wants to just rush through and need every detail explained to build up the story you may not enjoy the game as much and see it as too short. The main game is a short one but I have observed every part of the level, or as much as I could so far, and there are lots of hidden pieces of information that build up the story and situation. A lot of objects can be interacted with and the animations are very smooth and had no issues. The soundtrack is very nicely done and the general atmosphere of the game has had a lot of care and attention added to it, fromt he sound effects and how you interact with object it's all got subtle hints of quality, a minor one is water bouncing off your raincoat, while a small thing has more immersion when moving around. Art style is unique and consistent and one of my favourite aspects and mtches with the atmosphere part along. I don;t really get scared by games much, including this one, but what I will say is every monster encounter does give me a very tense feeling, and sometimes rushing in a panic will actually get you caught easier. The enemy designs are very good, especially what you see the first and second main enemy. So overall it's a unique experience I enjoyed twice and I could probably play a third time happily, but I won't as I don't want to end up memorising everythign too much and ruining it. I will say I died as many time the second time as I did the first time but on different parts so it was still good.

My favorite game from 2017

First off the atmosphere is the main selling point of this game for me. I personally feel that there are influences from people like Henry Selick, Tim Burton and even Hayao Miyazaki. The mix of being kinda childish yet dark and horror inspired is really cool. The music and soundscape really fits the world that they created for this game. Short but sweet. The game is somewhat short but it's quality that matters. It's one of those games that you can re-visit because it doesn't take you over 40 hours to play through.

Tension Throughout

Excellent little game, full of tension, great world-building, and a fantastic ending. It's a 2.5D side scrolling puzzle platformer "hide and seek" type game, similar to games like Limbo and Inside. The art style is immaculate. There are no jump scares, but there are definitely scary, gross, and disturbing things in the game. The game is not strictly *about* anything, at least not easily made known to the player, so it's fun to think about what it all means. Highly recommend. Stick with it, if like me you think the beginning of the game is a little slow, it picks up steam after you get past the first "boss".

Beautiful and atmospheric

The game felt a bit short, but it is pretty to look at and also has a dark atmosphere. Great music also

Cool fun game

As a fan of Limbo-style games, I really enjoyed this game. Fair puzzles, good atmosphere and brilliant art style. I was a little sad when the game ended, but I have to say that the length was just right.
