![]() Mono can stow away keys he finds in his jacket and move around with them normally and hands-free, removing the first game's often cumbersome need to manually carry and throw them like other objects.While the core gameplay remains the same as the first game, several improvements and streamlines were made to the old mechanics to make players' lives easier, and some glaring problems rectified (which were even advertised in the marketing).For the sake of the player's sanity, this rule is suspended in the dreamlike sequences between rounds of the final boss battle: a single blow to one of the free-standing doors will return the player to Nightmare Six's lair. Normally it takes three blows with an axe to break through a rotting door.Similarly, in the School Six will never trigger the hidden floorboard traps set by the Bullies, always stopping just before or jumping over them with you. This first appears when the children are being sought by the Hunter: Six will duck under the muddy water, showing Mono how to avoid the Hunter's lantern. While Six will most of the time follow Mono's lead until she is needed, in certain sequences she will run ahead of him to demonstrate how to complete a series of jumps or an escape sequence.For completing the game, the player receives a fedora like the one the Thin Man wears. And Your Reward Is Clothes: One of the game's sets of collectible achievements takes the form of "hats" Mono can pick up in hidden locations and immediately wear.Why does Six betray Mono and let go of his hand? Does Mono turn into the next Thin Man, or is he stuck in a Stable Time Loop making him the Thin Man's younger self? Who is Mono? Why does he wake up alone in a forest? Is he trying to reach the Signal Tower, or is the Pale City simply an obstacle on the way to some other goal?.Ambiguous Situation: Even compared to the first game, which at least had a clear container and structure, Little Nightmares II is vague, confusing, and, well, nightmarish.Air-Vent Passageway: Like in the first game, one of the player's primary means of moving between locations is by making use of convenient air ducts - normal sized by the villains' standards, but just right for a tiny human child to crawl through.Advancing Wall of Doom: After Mono destroys the music box, the Signal Tower's interior begins sprouting eye-covered Meat Moss which chases Six and Mono as they run for their lives and crushes Mono if he falls too far behind.If he gets close enough he will snatch Mono like he did Six. The second time the Thin Man emerges from a television, he gives chase to Mono, advancing slowly toward him while the player performs platforming maneuvers as quickly as possible to evade him.He chases them (and will kill Mono if he catches them) until they trap him in an incinerator. ![]() Near the end of the Hospital, Six and Mono again are forced to make a noise, alerting the Doctor to their presence.At the climax of the School chapter, the Teacher forces her head into an air vent after the children and they have to run (and jump) for it until they escape the building.During chase sequences, the Hunter will kill Mono if he hesitates in the open too long or lets himself be caught up to.The Adjectival Man: The tall, creepy fedora-bearing fellow who controls - or possibly is controlled by - the Signal Tower is known as the Thin Man.While Mono is just as helpless as Six against the larger foes, he has the ability to wield Improvised Weapons against some of the smaller ones. ![]() Little Nightmares II will haunt your dreams again with the following tropes: On your way, you will battle new villains such as the Hunter, a madman in the woods who hunts children and adults alike the Teacher, who runs her class like a dictatorship the Doctor, who performs twisted plastic surgeries on his patients and the Thin Man, who broadcasts the Transmission that has turned Pale City into a little nightmare. Together you must traverse the Pale City, a vast, monstrous, and incomprehensible metropolis distorted by the humming transmission of a distant signal tower, and confront what lurks within it. You play as Mono, a young barefoot boy wearing a brown paper bag over his head, joined by Six as an AI-controlled companion. The game takes you outside the horrors of the Maw and into the horrors of what's beyond it. It released for PC, PS, Xbox, Switch, and Stadia on February 11th, 2021. Little Nightmares II is the suspense adventure follow-up to Little Nightmares developed by Tarsier Studios and published by Bandai Namco.
