Very Little Nightmares Reviews

VLN was enjoyable, has some cool puzzles and familiar mechanics to the first Little Nightmares game. I didn’t accidentally die nearly as much as in the first game, so less frustration lol. Cool to see new villains, again with similar powers though to what you experience in LN, so a bit of a retread bummer in that respect. I’d love to give this higher praise, but with how insanely short this game was, especially for $6.99!, I can’t. If it was like $2 ok, but I expected more for that price, especially when you compare against other mobile games in that price tier. Really the only reason to go back after completion is if you missed some rewards items or if they decide to give some free DLC (YES please). I missed 2 jack in the boxes on my first go through, so if I’d have tapped everywhere I could have feasibly gotten everything on first try (that gets annoying though). Unless you are diehard into this universe, I’d wait until the price drops or is on sale (surprised it isn’t with the 2nd one just releasing). Overall a good experience, just wish there was more of it and that it was Apple TV friendly. Getting more picky about buying iOS games in general due to lack of tv support. Many of these games (not this one) can be purchased on switch, PlayStation and Xbox, making it a more fun & immersive experience. I always check them first.

This game is a fantastic small adaptation of our of favorite game of 2017, “Little Nightmares”. But BEWARE, the controls can be quite irritating depending on the type of gamer you can be; if you’re impatient and like to be speedy tapping left or right of the screen proves to be quite trivial, but if your’e patient and slow I doubt you’ll notice this as a problem. The puzzles are fair and are similar on the level of the original game’s difficulty of puzzle-solving, though near the end of the game some of the puzzles can be quite dubious which personally led to some frustrating moments, (specifically something involving a piano and 5 portraits).

In terms of the canonicity, without spoiling much, this seems to be completely separate from the main game. While it helps to be familiar with Tarsier’s world of Little Nightmares, there’s no need to HAVE to play the prior title to enjoy this one (though it’s HIGHLY recommended that you do)...

For actual fans, I think the game does a good job at supplementing some new theories. All in all, the game works well, the environments are well done, and as a fan of the first game you should definitely check this title out.

Very little nightmares is a good game with a few flaws. First off the sound track is really good, the art style is loyal to the first little nightmares, and for a mobile game it is a very fun experience.
The flaws keep it from being perfect tho. First off I witnessed some game breaking up bugs like in the second to last level wouldn’t allow me to move no matter where I tapped causing me to die, “This happened a few times”. And some enemies you weren’t supposed to interact with would be stuck in place and you could walk on top of them.
SPOILER WARNING:

At the end of the game it’s revealed that you were not playing as six but as someone else. The reason I bring this up is because I have a personal complaint, I wanted to see how six got on to the maw and where she came from, while we do see a little of that, it’s very vague. And the story adds more questions than answers like how do the kids get to nest, and who are these new enemies you fight and why are they doing the things they are doing. But over all it was a fun experience and it is worth the money.

I’ve never played Little Nightmares, the original, nor heard of it till the day before I got this. The puzzles are challenging and I find the character you play as super cool and cute! Like, I literally almost freak out every time she get hit with a piece of garbage, electrocuted, snatched up by the long armed man, or falls! I just love the girl in the yellow raincoat! I’m super upset tho!!! Why did this have to end like this for her!? (I call her Zero every now and again, because I don’t know her real name... does she have one??) it’s just, well, sad!! I also hear the was a clip scene at the end where “Six” collects her raincoat, but I could not get it. Bug, or is there a certain way to get it? 😅
other than that, great game, totally addictive and worth paying for! Still love the girl in the yellow raincoat too!!

So little nightmares is one of my favorite games on the planet. I’ve played both the original and the DLCs and I love them. I think this game is a great addition to the series and I like that it can be played on mobile. I love this game but it is a bit glitchy. My main problem is crashing. Every now and then the game would freeze and then crash. Then when I reloaded it, I would be started back a level or two. But then the main problem is that when I got to the end of the trash level and I was climbing up the ladder, the game froze and crashed but i tried to start it up again, every time I pressed play it would just crash again so I couldn’t play the game. I tried deleting things off my phone but it didn’t help. I ended up having to restart the ENTIRE GAME. That was really annoying, but other than that I love this game and I would enjoy any others made, just please fix the bugs.

This game was absolutely fantastic. If you’ve played the other games, you’ll be very pleased to find that this game is of the same breed of pleasantly scary and excitingly shocking.
The story unravels very well paced to maintain your interest. The story is never boring and always supplying you new information to feed your imagination.
Because the platform is point and click, you can’t have the same chase and hide mechanics as the console games of the same franchise. No need to worry, because it’s made up for with clever puzzles.
If you start playing without taking a look at the achievements beforehand, you’ll probably laugh at them as you unlock them by accident.
5/5 stars for this game, I’ll be recommending it to anyone that will listen.

Little nightmares is already one of my favorite games, so imagine my surprise when an app comes out. I thought it would be generally good, but when I actually played it I was hit with an experience I will soon not forget. It plays somewhat like Monument Valley, but without the optical illusions of course. The puzzles are stronger in this game than in the original, and manages to be different enough that it does not feel like the same game. In some aspects, I actually found this one more disturbing than the original, but to be fair, I have played the original well over a dozen times so the scare factor did die. It is always nice to have a game to pull out and play, and this game would be a great companion for a long car ride.

Yes some of the puzzles were really hard and annoying. It still captured suspense in a cartoony mobile game. It is an amazing add on to the Little Nightmares series but not as good as the original. For there is less mobility and it is not as scary or suspenseful. I recommend this game 100%! It is amazing and at night you will stay up thinking of theory’s and the immense story. It is an amazing game with outstanding music and an amazing story and lore. This is probably mostly bias because I’m like the biggest LN fan ever. But this game had beautiful sound design and music, elegant animation and easy to learn controls. I loved this game and you should get it too. Easy 5 stars. Even if your not a fan of horror just give it a shot.

An excellent Franchise please take your time with the series the puzzles are great the atmosphere is wonderful milk it for all it’s got but just take your time with it this game is refreshing challenging Interesting Dark Twisted Fun The Pacing has been perfect I love all the theories you know you got something when people start to to theorize what could be I say you throw us on our heads and keep us guessing it’s like a mysteries you never want to end I own all variations of the tittle and have definitely enjoyed the superb creation thank you sincerely from a fan

So much about this game is superb—soundscape, graphics, ambiance, and hidden achievements. I’m currently stuck on Level 4 (in the bath tub room) because no matter how hard or frantically I double-tap for her to run, I can’t get her up the bookcase fast enough to avoid him grabbing her. I just hit 40 deaths trying this level. I I think I scream out loud in fear every time, too because being chased is intense. I’ve sought out walk through to try different routes (there is really only one) or tricks but it appears to be just a matter of moving fast. Which I cannot do. I’ll try it again every few days, since I enjoy the game very much and want to keep going! But if you can do anything to help her zoom along in that puzzle level I’d appreciate it.

This is a fun little game. I have never played the original little nightmares so I didn’t have any background in terms of the overall story line but that isn’t needed and this story is definitely independent.

The controls can be frustrating. Wish they would have adjusted for landscape view as I think this would have elevated many of the problems.

As for the second to last level, I seem to be stuck at the crossing of the bridge with the small tree. I get half way across and fall off every time. I’ve tried to slow down, I’ve tried nonstop running, I’ve tried clicking all across the tree. Nothing seems to be working and it is quite frustrating. Not sure if this is a glitch or if I am doing something wrong.

I like this game a lot! But the constant tapping to get everywhere is annoying. More than once, the game decided I didn’t double tap when I had, decided I clicked on an entirely different section, and decided I didn’t tap at all. Not to mention, the pathfinding was very wonky, and sometimes made the character run in circles... and on the big platform slide puzzle in the piano room, the character decided that she could walk on air all the way down to the bottom and got stuck... had to restart the level entirely. Definitely has replay value though, I barely got any of the jack in the boxes. I might refrain from playing until at least the pathfinding gets better though...

I love this game and it’s mechanics but couldn’t you of made it longer? I finished it in 3 hours that’s pretty short and it is cool how it is a prequel of little nightmares 2 which is also a prequel but could you make it less complicated? If you could make a second one like this? But longer, and a sequel to the first game and with no connection with it that does not have six or mono or the girl in the yellow raincoat, but includes the cafeteria lady that was dead on the floor in the second game and some new enemies? But that is not what this review is for, so it is way too short for 6.99 make it a buck or free and I would be satisfied but, since that is not possible because you need to make money, I will give this 3 stars.

This is a great, suspenseful, gorgeous game! I loved playing it and the tension that the harder levels (the ones you’re chased on) are great. HOWEVER, There’s something screwy with level 13 at the end. The butler is simply not distracted long enough to get away - she runs to the door and stops as if it doesn’t register that it’s open. I have also had the game semi freeze and the butler doesn’t move at all, but that doesn’t register the end of the level. I have checked all of the walkthroughs and sites, seems I’m not the only one that this is glitching at. Frustrating as I loved this game until this point.

✅ Game Design is pretty good, immersion is happening, especially with the music and sounds.
✴️ Complexity of the puzzles improve over the game, but since every key things are highlighted, you won’t have to think too much.
✴️ Checkpoint system is not intuitive at all, so you will always be afraid to quit VeryLittleNightmares for something else since he will “reboot” by itself without bringing you back to where you were.
✴️ There are a few bugs left, especially when you’re against a specific type of enemy (*spoiler alert* the floating one), you don’t die when you should and then you can’t do nothing but quit the game.
🅾️ Gameplay is definitely the worst thing about this game. The point and tap just doesn’t work very well, especially the double tap run version. So be ready to be frustrated.
🅾️ Camera motion is second worst, because it is not synced with your character, so when you have to plan ahead your second move (eg: while rushing away from something) it will be fairly random to tap where you wanna go, you gonna miss some tenth of millimeter with your big thumb and die over and over haha

I had a blast adventuring through the macabre world of little nightmares, and was consistently amazed at how perfect it was for my phone, and as a port (but entirely new content) of the look and feel of the amazing Little Nightmares. Some puzzles were frustrating like old school pixel hunts as you need to figure out what you can interact with or figure out new ways to traverse that you didn’t know were possible, and the last stretch of the game is much more focused on trial and error than the rest of the game in a way that I very much did not like. That said, the game is still incredible and of course comes highly recommended!

I played the little nightmares on my PlayStation and when I found out there was already one on mobile I just had to play it. It really makes me understand the story better and I feel so attached to the characters. I cant wait for part ll. I love everything from the music, to the artwork, it’s so cute yet chilling and I just adore things that are cute yet spooky. Its a must recommend for anyone who’s played the PlayStation one first def play this one. If you haven’t played one on a console play this one first.

Not sure if some of the puzzles are broken or you need to reload if you do it wrong (barrel room is just a bad puzzle room. Really bad. As is the floor switch door And red ribbon room. Just non intuitive nonsensical puzzles). The pathing controls are not good for this day and age, could be way more intelligent to avoid clicking all over the place infinitely, I mean you really shouldn’t have to click on ladders, top or bottom should work. The camera could be way better also to show more ahead of you, even just increasing the camera scroll speed. Also Have fun losing your save progress in certain rooms (imps jumping on bed). And OMG THAT ENDING might be the worst in any video game ever!!!!! Run for your life then you die. Terrible. 0 stars seriously.

I own Little nightmares on the PC already and I was to scared to finish playing the PC version but i’m so glad it came out to mobile :-) so I can actually not be so terrified to play even though it isn’t exactly the same as the PC version I still like it ^^ ALSO I hope later in the future that you guys would please add more levels and maybe some DLC, and special content like from the PC version that would be really nice 😊💕I really would like to see you guy’s create and make add on extra levels as DLC for this version of little nightmares ^_^

SPOILERS IN REVIEW

Okay, first of all I love this game. The simple graphics are amazing, the characters are great, and the puzzles are amazing.

I simply want to talk about the ending, which was fighting the final boss lady with another kid helping you only to fall into a ocean and have your raincoat float up and drift away. It’s interesting, sure but I had hoped it would be a little more heartening. The second I saw myself actively indulging with the other kid you saw for a few seconds, like when I fell into the giant spider web, I went like “Oh, we’re gonna escape together!” What a surprise when I found out what actually happens.

Maybe you could create a sequel or something? Like maybe the second kid dives in after me and it’s all about what happens down there? Maybe there’s a tunnel or something? Idk, it’s up to you, but I do want the story to not end at heroic yet ironic death.
