Little Nightmares is a really amazing survival horror game. You need to make sure you hide or run from whoever is trying to eat you. Really great game. The collector edition is a must have comes with a figure of the main character.

This game somehow manages to be adorable, creepy and terrifying all at the same time. It's a bit short, but it's also not $60. The DLC is $5 and worth it. I highly recommend it if you enjoy creepy games, platformers and puzzles.

If you enjoyed Limbo and Inside then you will LOVE Little Nightmares. The art is visually stunning for an indie game. Has a very Spirited Away feel to it. Especially towards the end of the game. The story is left for the player to speculate. But! If you look carefully around you, you can figure it out. I'd give this 5 stars but, the only complaint that I have is the poster that came with the special edition was folded. Yes, folded. Now it's all creased and wouldn't look every attractive displayed in a frame. As far as the statue goes, it's made of hard plastic and the details on Six's coat are well done. The cage box gives the overall case a very foreboding feeling to it. Which is great. This edition also features the soundtrack. The music is wonderful and chillingly haunting at time.

Little Nightmares offers you super tight controls and very compelling and inspired locations. Theres a lot of shots that feel straight out of the concept art - clearly, a dedicate team of artists came together to bring the characters and locations to life.
I was surprised by how the game dropped you right into the fray - no tutorial section, no dialogue. The game communicates everything through its design. I found myself thinking the game 'clever' in several moments.
The game is short - about 3-5 hours depending on how much time you spend snooping into every nook and cranny. Its worth replaying for the collectibles and a 'speedrun' achievement.
I fell in love with this game for its very responsive controls and intriguing world, and some genuinely tense moments.
This collector's box is nice if you like having a physical case for the game. The box itself has a small figurine of the main character - Six - as well as stickers, a poster, and the soundtrack.
Speaking of - this is definitely a game you'll want to dig out decent headphones for. The sound design is incredible and the music cues really lend to the experience.
I very much grew to love this little game, for its eerie atmosphere and excellent sound design.

First I got the six edition since I still prefer physical copies of games. What drew me to the game was the fact that it was a platform game like limbo or little big planet. The horror element is also what drew me in and over all pretty happy with the game even if I have not been able to play it all that much. The game play is fun and makes you think a bit about some of the puzzles and only had one so far where I had to look up how to get passed it. My only grip is its mostly linear so there are not multiple options on how to get past the puzzles. Overall I like it a lot!

If you're tired of all the action shooter games, this is certainly a breath of fresh air. I would definitely recommend it to gamers especially the casual ones. There's no sense of urgency to finish game (except to find out what the story is about). You, as the player, can play at your own pace. It's short story-wise but certainly a must have to play at least once.

I wish more games didn't have a tutorial or hand-holding to get you past the first level. Little Nightmares starts you out and you have to figure out what to do. The puzzles aren't very hard, but there are some parts of the game that get really intense. I loved the atmosphere, graphics, and the sound in this game. If you enjoyed games like Inside, or Limbo, this game is for you.

This is short, just to be fair and upfront... like really short (about 3 hours if you are taking your time). But the envirment, the visuals, music, sounds and story are all so top notch that it is worth every penny and second.
This is one of those games that will keep hitting you days after you finish.

If you've ever heard of the games Inside or Limbo and you liked the way they play then you will enjoy Little Nightmares just as much. I didn't know much about the game when I went into it but when I finished it, I was glad that I picked it up. It has a creepy vibe throughout that drives you to find a way out of the world that is presented. Turn the lights off and turn up the sound. Let the nightmares begin!

If you liked Limbo and Inside, you'll probably like this one as well. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It is mostly a side scrolling type of deal like Limbo was but it does have some depth where you can go forward and back. There were a couple of frustrating times where I died due to walking off an edge when I didn't quite see the depth right but you could as easily blame me for that as the game. The in game music was very creepy and fitting, graphics were great. Also, the version I bought was the collector's edition which comes with a cool little Six (character's name) figure and a CD with the game music on it. My whole reason for buying the collector's edition was the music. It does come in a cheaper game only edition if music or a character figure doesn't do it for you. There will also be DLC related to this game coming out in the future, the first of which releases in July (you can find more info on this online). While this game was pretty short (maybe 4ish hours), I felt it was worth the money.

I remember seeing this game somewhere long ago and thinking that the graphics looked cool. It reminded me of that short animated film "Who's Hungry?" That film was disturbing and creepy and this game threads the same line. The game isn't a hard game, but it's a lot of fun and the score is great. I hope they make a sequel. I really enjoyed the extra CD with the score and the little figurine is a great addition to my displayed knick knacks. It comes with a poster and some stickers. The packaging is great too. Perfect for display. If you like to be creeped out a bit but not have too much anxiety, definitely pick up this game!

This is a creepy, TimBurtonesque and fun game, it has some parts where you basically get anxious or desperate because of the monsters that appear, I definitely recommend it.

This is a fun little game, however the game gives very little insight as to how to use the controls and there is not really a story line in this game. But I will say the game is visually appealing and the sound also was good. Fun Puzzle Solving Game Overall.

Great atmosheric design and suprisingly good visuals. The controls could be tighter, and the lengh of the game, is rather short. Worth the price for an evening playthrough and short enough for a replay. Solid 3.5 / 5

A great little horror platformer that seemingly came out of nowhere. If you're a fan of Limbo and Inside, play this little diamond. There are still small DLC being released so check it out!

Little Nightmares is an exceptionally well done platform puzzler. The overall themes are dark and at times somewhat creepy ( hence the game's title), the visuals are exceptional and game runs very smooth. My only complaint is that it is a bit short- took me around 5 hours to complete the entire game. Other than that, I highly recommend this game and will definitely play it again.
