This is not a fair representation because Little Nightmares isn't really concerned with childhood fears at all. It's in the title, for one thing, and the press kit I got in the mail mentions a hope that playing will cause me to relive my childhood fears. Little Nightmares will always suffer for comparison to Inside, one of the most perfect video games ever made, but whereas Inside features somewhat unexpected moments of horror (those underwater segments!), Little Nightmares has been presented specifically as a game about scary things. Little Nightmares and its ilk pours that on liberally this isn't about relaxation. It may have fail states, and you may even become frustrated if you get stuck, but you never feel a hollow, sinking feeling at having to face a challenging segment again, or wince and turn your face away, exclaiming in horror, when Yarny misses a jump. It isn’t all it could have been with a more cohesive vision.Ĭompare and contrast with, say, Unravel - a colourful game with a theme of connection and memory. Little Nightmares offers some absolutely sublime moments of dread and intrigue, but just can’t sustain that momentum. Little Nightmares is a puzzle-platformer best likened to Limbo and Inside, in that you run left to right, solving puzzles and platforming, while occasionally suffering anxiety in the face of escalating tension and expecting at any moment to suffer a gruesome death. It's about asking questions and creating mysteries from the outset.Little Nightmares isn't going to keep you awake, but it certainly has its moments. "We've not wanted to make a game about just giving you the answers. "It's just kind of this little element from all these different people's perspectives in the studio. "What we wanted to have was a world you wanted to explore, and that really felt kind of present, rather than just set dressing," he said. Mervik said that the team is not trying to create a "dark LittleBigPlanet," however, as some might guess. Characters are exaggerated in their features the world is gloomy and filled with grotesque creatures. The game has a very specific aesthetic and a vibe that would feel right at home in the dark, quirky mind of someone like Tim Burton. "Instead we gave her a very simple set of abilities and concentrate on using them." "We didn't want to give her special super powers or weapons, something a kid can't do," Mervik said. The best she can do is run, hide and hope he'll give up. If Six is brazen enough to dash in front of him, it doesn't end well Chef isn't a fan of vermin in his kitchen. Most of the time in our demo was spent scrambling as the Chef - who sort of looks like a doughy, nightmare version of The Muppets' Swedish Chef - shuffled around his kitchen. Six is tiny compared to the dangers around her she's a mouse fleeing for cover. She's surprisingly agile, however, and can climb up or over obstacles with ease. "It's about asking questions and creating mysteries"

Mervik said that there's little known about it, other than the fact that it "pretty much shows up wherever it likes, completely unannounced." The Maw is as mysterious as it is ominous.

Little Nightmares, which is heading to PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2017, follows a leggy little girl in an oversized yellow hood named Six as she looks for a way out of The Maw. Speaking to Polygon, senior narrative designer Dave Mervik said the team wants to explore feelings of alienation and surreal fear from a new perspective.

The Sweden-based indie developer, best known for working on Sony and Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet, is delving into something far more ominous with its latest game, Little Nightmares. There's a dark side to childhood, and Tarsier Studios wants to explore it.
