Big and scary world The gameplay of LN mixes exploration with platforming and solving environmental puzzles. Six, the main character of the game, is a very little girl, locked in the basement prison of the mysterious location named the Maw, from where she has to find the way out to freedom. To do that, the player will have to lead her through various rooms in the house, solving environmental puzzles, flipping switches to open new areas, and avoiding monstrous inhabitants of the Maw. Six’s only companion is her lighter, which lights her way through the Maw’s dark corridors, keeping the monsters at bay. Along the way, she will meet Nomes – tiny, shy creatures who observe her actions from the shadows. The story of a child’s nightmare Six just woke up from a dream, but her real horror nightmare is about to begin. The girl finds herself trapped in the basement of the Maw, a mysterious vessel inhabited by large human-like creatures. Here, not only are the people huge – everything is bigger, scarier, more dangerous, fueled by Sux’s fear and desperation. Armed only with a lighter to guide her way, Six delves deeper into the bowels of the Maw encountering unfathomable terrors and chased by the inhabitants of this dreadful place. The little girl in yellow raincoat must use her wits to escape and avoid capture. Reception Little Nightmares was met with a very positive critical reception. Reviewers praised the games level design, which contrasted the protagonist minuscule size and the Maws ginormous locations. More praise went to the game’s ambient sounds – creaking floorboards, water dripping from rusty pipes, etc. The critics also noted the unconventional and suspenseful story of LN as one of the game’s strongest points. The game was nominated for several awards and won 2016’s Gamescom Indie Award. Key features Venture into the Maw and help a little girl find her way out.
