Little Nightmares 2 feels like an authentic representation of combat when you’re controlling a character who happens to be a child. There’s even some combat in the game, but don’t expect to pick up a weapon and just destroy every enemy in the room with a few button presses, especially when you’re brandishing everyday items like a hammer or even a ladle. More than likely, you’ll die because you were a little overconfident when walking through one of the game’s many areas. It’s not to say that the game is extremely easy, however, as you’re probably going to encounter some deaths.
The platforming itself is also very smooth and it’s actually so easy to pick up and play purely because the control system is so simple. Larger items can be grabbed, dragged, and pushed around, whereas smaller items can be picked up and thrown. As mentioned before, you control Mono, and aside from just normal movement through the environment, he’s also able to grab onto items. Little Nightmares 2, just like its predecessor, is a 2.5D puzzle-platformer horror adventure game. It really kept things exciting and made me anxious about how the story might play out. I actually quite liked this as the surprises feel like exactly that, surprises. Various developments and twists occur as you play, giving you very little warning about what might happen next. From the very beginning, you’re essentially just thrown into the game and are set on your way. The story is quite enjoyable and develops at a steady pace as you progress through the game. There, untold horrors await Mono and Six. After rescuing Six, the two set off across the water and enter Pale City, which is completely covered in mist. He wanders through the wilderness and comes across an old shack where a girl called Six is being held captive by a masked hunter. Has it been able to achieve this? I can safely say that yes, it has.Īs you start the game, you’ll take control of a boy wearing a paper bag on his head by the name of Mono. With a new protagonist and a new location, Little Nightmares 2 aims to deliver a spine-chilling experience that is sure to be quite memorable. Developed by Tarsier Studios and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, Little Nightmares 2 is the follow-up to the 2017 game of the same name.
