Little Nightmares 3 Becomes the Lowest-Rated Game in the Main Trilogy — Now Has a 73 on Metacritic

The title was developed by Supermassive Games; the first two installments were created by Tarsier.

Little Nightmares III has begun to receive early reviews from specialist outlets. Critics commend the game’s oppressive atmosphere, musical score, and the option to experience this nightmarish tale in cooperative mode. Noted drawbacks include occasional awkward animations, lackluster boss encounters, relatively simple puzzles, and a thin storyline.

As the portal GameSpot points out, Little Nightmares III offers few innovations; it largely recycles elements fans have already seen in the first two entries developed by Tarsier.
