Critic Reviews for Through the Nightmares
It gives just as much back as you put in, and I appreciate that in a platformer like this. It probably won’t change your life, but it might just get you through a couple of sleepless nights. Sometimes, all you need is a little help from a friendly Sandman to make it to dawn.
Through the Nightmares is a nightmarishly difficult, great labour of love, with the only thing stopping you from beating the game is your own skill and willpower. Just be willing to wait, use any knowledge you collect with each death, and don't give up.
It may be one of the most brutally frustrating platformers out there but Through the Nightmares manages to provide satisfying gameplay. 🛌
