### 5/5 — Nice

*2026-08-05, version 1.2.0*

Nice game👍

### 5/5 — BIG FAN OF LITTLE NIGHTMARES

*2026-07-07, version 1.2.0*

I LOVE LITTLE NIGHTMARES I BEAT BOTH OF THE CHAPTERS AND I LOVE THIS 10/10 GAME

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing!

*2026-07-01, version 1.2.0*

The game is fun, and when playing even though I know I’m not the best at games! It was surprisingly challenging at parts and alot of the puzzles are actually unique and require you to use a little more thought than you’d imagine! I love the art style and I believe the game is a great service to the franchise! The only game I’ve spent money on my iPhone and I don’t regret it! Please consider playing it if you are looking for a fun game!
It’s not incredibly long but I believe for the fun and simple gameplay it’s worth paying for especially if you’re a big fan of the franchise like me! 
10/10 game would recommend :D

### 5/5 — Great spinoff

*2026-06-04, version 1.2.0*

Enjoyable and immersive spinoff mobile LN game that is essentially a prequel, with a somewhat lighter tone (as the Hobbit is to the LOTR books). Outstanding art, great sound design and music, puzzles are lightly challenging, achievements are really fun to track down. I prefer more explore-and-solve puzzles and few (or no) boss fights, so the balance in this game really works for me. I loved the storyline of learning about the trolls. 

The only problem is that it’s quite short. And be sure to watch through the end of the credits to be caught up on the lore revealed in this game.

### 5/5 — とても面白い

謎解きがとても面白いし敵から逃げるのにも少し頭を使うのも楽しいです。
