In this new horror adventure game from Tarsier Studios (Little Nightmares, Little Nightmares II), a brother & sister go through hell to rescue their missing friends and escape the island that they used to call home.
I watched a streamer I like playing through this. I really liked the cinematic element of some of the horror sequences, and there’s some nice “open world moments” and vehicle moments. That sounds initially like it doesn’t fit with a creepy game, but I liken it to the isolation of Highway 17 in Half-Life.

Unfortunately the game got hammered with negative reviews at release on Steam because the Friend’s Pass was missing. It was at ~45% positive reviews when I checked a few hours ago. Now that the pass is live, it has recovered to ~71%.
Personal thoughts: Played the demo yesterday. Controlling the character was a bit clunky but it felt like a great spiritual successor to Little Nightmares 1/2. I’ll probably wait until all the DLCs are out before getting it.

Roommate and I played the demo and really enjoyed it. We’ll play when the game is on sale, the other negative reviews are about the price when it’s only 4 hours long and I agree it’s too expensive for what it is.

As is tradition. People complained hard about Little Nightmares 2 being expensive for how short it was on release, too.
