A sequel that successfully captured the same dreary and hopeless atmosphere that made the previous so effective. Even without dialogue I was pulled into the story and made to feel invested. While the platforming and puzzles remained similar—moving and finding objects in order to progress—things certainly amped up following the initial chapter as it introduced new environments and monsters.

The only thing I didn’t completely gel with was the combat as it relied on timing that could prove frustrating if off by a small margin. Diverse game mechanics aren't a bad thing, but Little Nightmares tended to be tricky already due to its side-view perspective.
