    If not for a few clunky gameplay mechanics, Little Hope would be the perfect horror game.

    With a more engaging cast of characters and an intriguing mystery at its core - leading to an insane mindfuck of an ending! - Little Hope is a definite improvement over its predecessor and hopefully a sign of even better things to come.

    The second chapter in the Dark Pictures Anthology is a major improvement over Man of Medan. With better pacing, a well written story and a great multiplayer mode, Little Hope is ideal for fans of horror and their friends.

    There are certain things that don’t quite connect and a handful of plot holes that stick out, but Dark Pictures: Little Hope is definitely worth your time if you’re a fan of the genre or liked Until Dawn and were disappointed with Man of Medan. It’s a game that’s best enjoyed when being played with a group of people to shout out which decisions to make and pass the controller around. At its best, Little Hope is chilling and gripping and creates an internal conflict in the player between wanting to press on and being too scared to see what lies behind the next door.

    Little Hope makes the direction of The Dark Pictures anthology clear, but it makes up for its evident formula with an interestingly convoluted story and increasingly nuanced branching paths.

    Little Hope doesn't have the charm of Man of Medan and its story is too predictable and not terrifying. Even so, it is a good option to play in the company of 5 friends.

    There is nothing offensive about the story in Little Hope, and nothing immediately sets off warning bells or narrative decisions I would tell players to consider before going into it. At most, the game is just boring and uninteresting.

    Had a few slight flaws, but if you're like me and play the game with friends and family it's an absolute blast.

    Contras:
    - Desenvolvimento fraco
    - Jogabilidade, a movimentação é bem ruim
    - Pouca liberdade de escolhas no cenário
    - Enredo bem meh até a parte final
    - Partes de apenas andar para frente em ruas vazias

    Conclusão: um retrocesso ao que man of medan fez que já não era grandes coisas, no geral é uma experiência bem medíocre que não recomendaria a não ser pelo final que realmente surpreende e da uma satisfação pra um enredo até então muito fraco.    … Expand

    Very nice and interesting story absolutely ruined by terrible interface and QTE management. Screamers are also bad as that's the last andVery nice and interesting story absolutely ruined by terrible interface and QTE management. Screamers are also bad as that's the last and cheapest thing you should use to scare the player. On PS5 the game stucks on loading close to the last scene, and even the reinstall or other decision before that doesn't help. In a conclusion, the game is not ready for a production even a year after release. 3 is the best i can give for such developer's cheap work.… Expand
