Little Nightmares iii – Pros

Here’s a list of all the pros of the horror puzzle game that made it absolutely worth playing. See which of these intrigues you enough to push you to play it again? Or play it for the first time if you haven’t already!

The ‘Carnevale’ level was praised the most – According to the reviews, one of the best parts of the game was the new Carnevale level, as it was not just an added one but a good addition as well. It was majorly praised for its visual creativity and strong set pieces. These were also something different from what the game’s predecessors had in its gameplay. So, if you are looking for something new in the game, maybe this part is it!

Better ‘players’ options – The previous installments of Little Nightmares didn’t have the online co-op mode of gaming. But the third installment of the series introduced that as well. This allowed gamers across the world to play the game as Low and Alone, the protagonist with their friends. The online co-op mode allowed them to enjoy the game with their squad which was missing before. This also grabbed a major thumbs up from its critic. So, if you want to play the game with your friend, gaming companion, or a cousin, then Little Nightmares iii won’t disappoint you at all.

The addition of better ‘accessibility’ options – Little Nightmares iii also had a color-blind mode, off-screen indicators, etc., that was liked by its audience. These new features in the game allowed players to fix the camera and depth-perception issues according to their needs.

Little Nightmares iii – Cons

Here are all the cons of playing Little Nightmares iii. These might or might not make you want to reconsider your priority gaming schedule.

Nothing new and exciting – According to the reviews, the game had a bit of new elements here and there in the gameplay. But to be precise, it was almost the same as its previous entries and nothing exactly felt new. Some people even said that it felt like they were still playing the previous parts of Little Nightmares. All the puzzles, challenges, and platforming mechanics felt repetitive. So, if you are about to play the game for some new thrill, you can shift your schedule to a little later and look for something different for now.

The duration of the game was not satisfactory enough – A game that has a theme of horror puzzles should be long enough to enjoy properly. But small durations kill the buzz and don’t make you want to play it again. This not only felt like a short time span to play a game, but gamers also complained that the price of the game was higher for such a short duration game. So, if you are okay with a pricey game that has just 10 hours of run through time, you might invest your money and time in it.

Technical issues – Aren’t these the most common issue with every game? But when the game you have been waiting for so long has design roughness and technical glitches, it turns all the excitement into disappointment in no time. The same happened with Little Nightmares iii. Well, the good part about these issues is they can be fixed if the developers provide time-to-time updates of the game. Let’s see if that happens with this game as well. Also, if you can overlook such issues, then the game is surely yours to play.
