Little Nightmares (2017)

For tonight's Halloween review, I'll be looking at a video game called Little Nightmares.

Little Nightmares follows a tiny girl named Six in a yellow raincoat as she scurries around The Maw, a massive sea vessel of some sort. You control her as she tries to survive without being caught by the scary giant inhabitants of The Maw.

This game was pretty creepy. Definitely got your heart rate up with the deformed "people," all chasing Six as if she were a small rat on board. This is one of those games that doesn't offer any dialogue or explanation. You jump into the role of Six and start exploring, learning more about the world you're in through background interactions.

It was bad enough being seized by the creepy people of the ship, but the most terrifying (and trying) part for me was trying to run across a table as giant fat deformed people stuffed their faces with food, only to get too close to one and be grabbed and stuffed into their gaping mouth. If you like edge-of-your-seat tension, this game will do the trick. I really enjoyed it. Now I need to play the expansion.
