"Little Nightmares III is faithful to its predecessors while also adding interesting Co-op gameplay. The story is fun and doesn&s;t overstay its welcome, and the co-op mechanics enhance in some areas, while detracting in others."

"Though Little Nightmares III is not a drastic evolution over Tarsier Studios&s; vision, Supermassive Games excels at crafting their own warped horrors rife with tense chases and puzzles."

"Little Nightmares 3 is a gorgeously crafted collection of grim visuals, memorable creatures and fear-inducing horror. The co-op play is a natural and understandable evolution for the series, but it does alter the overarching atmosphere, albeit it subtly."

""Generally pretty good but the games middle and end meander and it doesn&s;t do much to elevate itself above the pack or even offer much new."
