I wouldn't say Little Nightmares 3 is a bad game, but it certainly doesn't feel like a finished one

The first time I played Little Nightmares, I fell in love almost instantly. Although I'm a total wuss when it comes to horror games, the Coraline-esque aesthetic very quickly sunk its hooks into me, and before long I found myself waiting for the release of the second game in 2021. In the meantime I stayed up trying to find out as much as I possibly could about the characters and setting. When Little Nightmares 2 launched it took me a single day to get through. You literally couldn't have peeled me away from it if you tried. So, when the third game was announced in 2023, the excitement started all over again.

Little Nightmares 3 is the first game of the series to be developed by Supermassive Games rather than Tarsier Studios. Despite this change, it certainly looks the exact same as the other two games. When you begin the adventure, you awaken in a strange environment overwhelmed by a feeling of dread, and everything around you looks gigantic to really emphasise how small you are as a child. The same goes for the various humanlike creatures you encounter, alongside the main villains, all of which tower over you.
