🇧🇷 Review em Português:
Dentro da antologia, um dos melhores. Little Hope é, sem dúvidas, um dos destaques de The Dark Pictures Anthology. Com um enredo envolvente e um plot twist realmente impactante, o jogo consegue surpreender até os mais atentos (a menos, é claro, que você seja aquele “tiozão dos plot twists” que jura ter sacado tudo desde o começo). Apesar das limitações orçamentárias, o jogo entrega uma narrativa imersiva, bem construída e cheia de simbolismos. É uma experiência rápida, mas que fica na cabeça mesmo depois de terminar. A proposta é excelente, o clima é sombrio e misterioso na medida certa, e a conclusão é, no mínimo, memorável. Não decepciona. Muito pelo contrário, eleva o nível da antologia.

🇺🇸 Review in English:
One of the anthology’s strongest entries. Little Hope stands out as one of the best in The Dark Pictures Anthology. With a gripping storyline and a plot twist that truly lands, it manages to surprise - unless, of course, you're that one guy who "totally saw it coming" five minutes into the game. Even with a modest budget, the game delivers a well-crafted, immersive experience filled with eerie atmosphere and symbolic layers. It’s a short playthrough, but it lingers in your mind long after the credits roll. The concept is strong, the tension is well-paced, and the ending is both bold and memorable. It doesn't disappoint in fact, it raises the bar for the entire anthology.

No Man of Medan, but still very fun.  I thought Tanya was Maya Hawke but it isn't.

I enjoyed the game for the most part; mostly trying to kill off characters I didn't like. However, the interludes were pointless and distracting. The ending was worse, completely disconnected from 99% of the story.

Date Completed: 2020-11-20
Playtime: ~ 5h
Enjoyment: 7/10
Recommendation: If you like horror and games that mostly play themselves then it's short enough to be worth your time.
