Eight years after the original release of the first Little Nightmares game, Bandai Namco has exponentially expanded the Little Nightmares franchise, a series of horror games different from others.
“[I like] the fact that they’re not trying to scare you with jumpscares, it’s more so the environmental things that make you afraid to continue on,” junior Ben Brinkman said.
Little Nightmares 3 follows the characters Low and Alone, and introduces a new two-player experience as well as new locations to flesh out the worldbuilding.
“[The games are] a lot more thought out since the first game. The first game was my favorite, but I feel like it could have been improved upon,” Brinkman said.
The most exciting thing happening with the series is the new variety of media being released. The ongoing comic series, “Descent Into Nowhere,” gives more information about the in-game world. The podcast is getting a second season, and fans are excited to see what questions will be answered.
“I think it could bring more understanding to the story, because some people get a little confused with how the story goes,” senior Peyton Howerton said.
