Little Nightmares Reviews
It has some unfortunate gameplay failings, but in terms of disturbing atmosphere and surprisingly serious subject matter this is one of the best horror games of the year.
Little Nightmares could use better pacing, perhaps more build-up in the first chapter, but even in its calmer moments it retains your interest with its macabre world and simple yet goosebumps-inducing gameplay. You constantly feel like a crippled gazelle limping around a lion's den. I'm excited to watch others play and panic the way I did.
Little Nightmares is a powerful project that brings a different kind of narrative. It creates lots of feelings with very few resources and, even though its duration is too short, it brings a very possitive experience.

A unique and very special adventure, with lovely visuals, an incredible atmosphere and an amazing representation of the feeling of being small. It's not as trascendental as it's meant to be, but we would be lying if we say that we didn't enjoy it from beginning to end.

"Little Nightmares" is a taut game that is creepy and atmospheric. It doesn't extend the margins of video game aesthetics so much as grow the market for dark, video game fairy tales. At present, I'm fine with that. ==
Tarsier Studios' new puzzle/platformer uses dark whimsy and a sympathetic protagonist to make us ponder the consequences of modern excess
Little Nightmares is an entrancing yet brief journey that even those averse to the horror game genre can enjoy. Its implementation of horror hits deeper and lasts longer than other games in the genre while still making it both enjoyable and accessible. Its beautiful visuals and sound design make for an immersive and horrifying experience that is difficult to put down even at its most terrifying moments. And even after surviving through its myriad of possibly nightmare-inducing sequences, it's hard to shake the feeling of wanting to experience more.
Tariser has come a long way from the bubbly world of LittleBigPlanet with the dark and disgusting world of Little Nightmares. What it lacks in gamplay substance is made up for in visual and audio design. If that's a trade-off you're worth making, and Little Nightmares is a decent entry into the genre.
Unlike the nightmare realm out of which Six is desperate to escape, Little Nightmares is a dream of a game that, upon completion, you may wish you could experience anew.
Little Nightmares is like a fledgling chef's interpretation of a gourmet dish: it looks the part and hits the spot – but it won't live too long in the memory once you've greedily gobbled it up. Outstanding presentation is paired with some forgettable puzzles and a slightly fragmented fiction, leaving a feast that will satisfy without ever really forcing your tastebuds to explode.
Little Nightmares takes the budding “hide-and-seek-horror” genre to another level by implementing a visual style that is both grotesque and inescapable.
Little Creatures is a freshly scary experience that feels like a like gothic storybook come to life despite some technical hiccups and awkward controls.
Inventive and disturbing puzzler with beautiful environments, Little Nightmares is well worth a look for fans of the genre looking for something a little different.
Behind the creepy mood and the awesome graphics, Little Nightmares has very little (pun intended) to say, gameplay-wise. Too simple, with some basic platforming and uninspired stealth sections.

Despite the lack of original ideas and obvious problems with the controls during the chases, Little Nightmares is very atmospheric stealth adventure game with great graphics, interesting main character, a strange world and impressive music. If you like INSIDE and Limbo, then be sure to play Little Nightmares too.

Despite its straightforward gameplay, Little Nightmares is a title worth putting in the handful of hours that it'll take you to complete, and you'll be surprised by how much ends up sticking with you.
The art, in itself, makes Little Nightmares worth checking out. The story, the gameplay, and the length that come with it make it a bit harder to justify the price. As polished as the art and animation are, the other parts of the game feel like unfinished ideas. Little Nightmares deserves a look, but waiting for a sale might make more sense for many gamers.
Little Nightmares drops you into a mad and scary world that's worth visiting thanks to some enjoyable platforming mechanics and chilling atmosphere.
Little Nightmares is a thrilling and interesting horror game that feel fresh and creative with a good puzzle design and a rich universe inspired by our child fears

The game is beautiful to look at from a distance but disappointing up close and ultimately functionless.
