Or the mannequin factory, where a caterpillar-esque Dr Frankenstein brings his creations to life. (Anyone currently homeschooling might relate). There's a school where a teacher with an extendable neck has cultivated classes of little maniacs. The platform-style gameplay, puzzles, and chases can be found in countless other adventures, but Little Nightmares II dwells in a dark netherworld of picture-book rooms and characters. Part II makes way for Mono, a voiceless sprite accompanied by an AI-controlled Six, passing through a fever dream that appears puppet-mastered by the Brothers Grimm. You controlled Six, a girl lost in the bowels of a ship while pursued by stop-motion creeps. The first Little Nightmares was a twisted fairy-tale that would give Tim Burton a hernia.
