Little Nightmares | PlayStation 4 | PS4

About the Game

Little Nightmares is a horror-themed platform game with puzzle elements. It is set in a humongous sea vessel called "The Maw", inhabited by strange, semi-human creatures. The player guides a small girl in a yellow raincoat, known as "Six", who seeks to escape the Maw. A major part of the experience is varied, twisted scenery, from grimy industrial depths, to living areas with giant-sized furniture.

Gameplay & Core Systems

Many areas of the game feature platform challenges where Six must carefully jump across the architecture to get to the exit. Some parts of the game feature puzzle gameplay, with Six needing to properly use objects or interact with the environment in order to open her way or distract enemies. By exploring, Six can find lamps to light up, statuettes that can be broken, and small, skittering creatures known as "Nomes" which can be hugged. Finding all of these grants the player achievements.

Standout Features

• Six can interact with the environment by pushing buttons, pulling levers and handles, pushing and pulling items (often to stand on), and picking up items to throw them or drop them elsewhere.

Presentation & Atmosphere
