This game deserves all the praise it gets and so much more. The way this game is presented through its stunning environmental atmosphere is nothing short of spectacular. I loved this game, and I loved the immersion it brought me. The way the camera works with your character as if you are looking into a movie set/toy set is so interesting. The art direction, immersion and character design really make this game so well put together. The DLC on top of that ties into the story so well, but doesn't do too much or too little. The story is up to the player, and how they WANT to interpret it. Little Nightmares is such a well put together piece of media, PLEASE play this or watch someone play it. 9/10.
Fun little game with amazing art design. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. The gameplay is simple but effective; I have recommended this game to a lot of people. It's not really scary, but it has a dreadful atmosphere that keeps you captivated.
The art is cool but I didn't really enjoy the puzzles that much. The depth perception was an issue for a lot of my play through it was kinda hard to tell where you were actually standing. I would say its worth it on sale mainly because the art is really cool in spite of the annoying puzzles.
