Little Nightmares is an indie game about the horrors of childhood, amplified into the way a child sees them, overexaggerating them with a Tim Burton-ish aesthetic. At least that's what I think it's about. My problem with Little Nightmares is that I leave the game wondering what it even means. What is Little Nightmares supposed to be? Was it worth my time? What do I get out of this? I certainly didn't enjoy my time with it, but it wasn't offensive either. The game's design of Stealth, Platforming, and Puzzles are rather unintuitive and bland, even at best, and the suspense you get isn't particularly great either, for many of the chase scenes falter due to clumsily made platforming at times. Ultimately, I walk away feeling remarkably underwhelmed.
