Sleep Tight Reviews
Sleep Tight captures the essence of being a kid. With its whimsical charm, its tone is the best thing it has to offer. It is a shame that there is just not enough content for the player to be engaged after a few plays.
All this might seem like I’m pretty down on Sleep Tight. But in the end, it feels like a game that’s hot out of the gate, but falls short after the first lap. It’s all style, but gets weighed down by some technical issues and a lack of variety.
Sleep Tight is an enjoyable little twin-stick/tower defence hybrid that will keep fans of either genre entertained. Lacking a multiplayer mode is the only sin committed by this otherwise engaging genre title.
Overall, I’m somewhat torn about Sleep Tight. There are things I legitimately enjoyed about the game. It had all the elements it needed to truly be a great new indie hit, but I feel the execution was flawed. I consider myself a huge fan of twin-stick shooters, and as such it’s not a great sign that I started to get a bit bored about five hours in. If it had found a way to have more variety and more of a sense of constantly unlocking content, I feel it would have fared better. As it is now, I can only really recommend it to hardcore fans of twin-stick and tower defense games. Here’s hoping We Are Fuzzy manage to tweak the game after the fact to round things out and add more content. Until that happens though, you might want to consider getting it while on sale.
