Little Nightmares: The Residence Review (sirkevinicus)
My feelings towards this DLC are still quite mixed, but it is the best of the 3 in the DLC. I love Luigi's Mansion, and this DLC feels similar in a cool way.
First, the puzzles are great. Pretty difficult for my small IQ pee-pee brain, but fair all said and done. All of the puzzles contributing to a singular hub world is awesome, and love what they did with the gameplay here.
The scares however are mixed - the atmosphere sets up a really spooky, genuinely scary setting that the base game and other DLCs hadn't done for me so far. However, the shadow children were more annoying than scary and the big scary is one we've already seen before (though with some additional lore that is cool). So all in all, it's really only good for someone with slight horror tolerance.
The ending I thought was great and added a lot to the understanding of the Maw.
After all is said and done, if the DLCs were included in base game, I'd feel pretty decent about the experience as a whole. As it stands though, it just feels like a lot of disjointed pieces that didn't quite reach a conclusive whole. I feel "just okay" about this game. Definitely fun, just nothing special.
