2.5/5 ★ – hunkypet's review of Little Nightmares: The Residence.

The third and final piece of DLC goes a long way to taking the sour taste out of my mouth left from the previous instalment. The Residence ditches it’s primary mechanic, platforming and instead focuses more on puzzle solving and Alan Wake-esque combat. You use your flashlight to focus on shadow children, hold the beam on long enough and they vanish. Sounds easy right? Well it is for the most part however a few times you have to mix puzzle solving with combat and against more than one foe and the controls don’t accommodate much here. The game also ties in a real shocking twist that weaves it parallel to the main game, for this reason alone I’d recommend the trilogy of DLC. Sometimes frustrating but worth the wait. Played on XSX
