“I've played LN1&2 over the last few days, and the first game hooked me instantly. The horror atmosphere, soundscape, and graphics are phenomenal. LN2 feels like an extended version of LN1, which I appreciate, but I was…”
“Story, graphics and art style are all incredible. Mechanics and gameplay mediocre at times. Encountered bug where I had to replay a segment 3 times before an item spawned properly. That said, still a fun experience.”
“I really loved the music, and the style of this game. I love that this developer is making games in this vein and hope they continue to do so. The twist was... unexpected and overall I didn't like it that much, and saw…”

“Part 2 of "Little Nightmares" is just incredible... In many ways, it’s better than the first game—it’s twice as long, has a wonderful setting, an incredible atmosphere, monsters that are just as horrifyingly beautiful,…”
“This game is amazing! Definitely recommend it if you enjoy puzzles, a bit of cuteness (six and mono r adorable!!!!) and great and terrifying horror!”

“ABSOLUTE CINEMA HOLYY I GOT SO MANY DEATHS ON SOME PARTS THAN THE FIRST GAME BUT SO WORTH IT”
“I didn't enjoy this one as much as Little Nightmares I. It was more difficult and frustrating. However, the ending emotionally wrecked me. Well worth the time I spent trying to reach the end. 7/10”
“great game, psychedelic visuals with an interesting story. Buggy as hell, needed to repeat 3rd chapter 3 times for a known bug that is not fixed. the combat is trashy as hell. The only good thing about the bugs and…”

“Most of this game is just trying to work out which objects you are supposed to interact with and the rest is getting baited. Unclear traps, misaligned platforming, awkward stealth spots and misleading enemy ranges.…”
“This game has the most infuriating end game boss fight in the world, that had an even worse ending that makes me wish I never even got the game to begin with. Aside from the ending, decent game.”

“As the first chapter, but better. The creepy, dark atmosphere feels thick and suffocating. That’s what makes it a horror game, not jump scares or anything like that. The gameplay is the same: we have to avoid twisted…”
“I will downvote this game for one and only one reason. Controls. They are horrible. And they can't be changed. Half the game I cursed the screen for fouling a running jump and a grab. They were necessary in the first…”
“The game is not bad at all, controls are sometimes clunky, but twice I ran into a bug which does not spawn game progressing items. The second time it happened no amount of restarting from checkpoint helped spawn the…”

“Good game but I cant recommend it at full price due to the game breaking bugs. I had issues passing through the electricity puzzles because sometimes the item needed for power wouldn't spawn in. I had to restart…”

“I'm only at the school, but the game is great and yes, the controls can be difficult, like angling them to jump and grab or quickly running and hiding, but it doesn't mess up the game and the game has a better plot than the first one, so good that I learned and obsessed over the…”
— a player, Steam review · 4 hrs played“The story’s a bit longer than the first one, enemies seem a bit harder this time and the puzzles are better in places, but I still like the first game more as it just felt creepier to me. One big difference is you play as Mono this time with 'Six' following you as an AI…”
— a player, Steam review · 16 hrs played“The art direction, character designs, and atmosphere of Little Nightmares II are its greatest strengths. The gameplay starts decent enough with platforming, stealth, and puzzle-solving but grows frustrating due to the player knowing what they need to do but the controls or field…”
