In nowhere

🗝️Little Nightmares is a pretty good platformer, which is stuffed with puzzles, quests and logical riddles. The game has a gloomy atmosphere, which can sometimes intensify and have a very strong social subtext.

One on the ship

😈 The main character is a nine-year-old girl who finds herself in her nightmare. The developers call it "Six". Being very small, she is forced to get out of there by all possible means. The player will have to interact with the outside world, push, pull, and so on. Everything would be fine, but this will be hindered in every possible way by huge monsters, who are ready to grab Six at the first opportunity. The world in which the main character finds herself is unusual. Grotesquely vile, dank, it envelops the player in darkness. You can only break through it with a lighter.

Allegory of consumer society

👻 The main idea of ​​Little Nightmares is a consumer society that eats and laughs. At the end of the game, the Lady throws a grand banquet on the ship, where each guest strives to grab Six and shove it into his mouth. Here the game conveys a terrible important idea: we need to change. And the main character adapts to her environment; she is growing stale. Otherwise you won't survive.

👻 The plot is open to interpretation. At first you don't understand anything; the game carries you forward and only occasionally focuses on simple tasks. Then comes awareness of the world around us. Then the darkest and most memorable events begin.

Little Masterpiece

🪞Depending on how you play, a complete completion of the game will take from 1.5 hours to 3 - 4 hours. During this time, the game does not have time to get boring. Unfortunately, the game does not have alternative endings. But in general, the game keeps the player in suspense throughout the entire plot. You are most likely not scared, but terrified, because you don’t understand and don’t expect what could happen right now. I definitely recommend this to you
