Our analysis

Reanimal is Tarsier Studios' best work to date, refining their Little Nightmares formula with excellent gameplay variety, visual and audio presentation, and atmospheric horror experience. While trial-and-error sequences and occasional buggy prompts detract slightly, the overall package is impressive and gripping in both solo and co-op.

Our analysis

A successful return to form by Tarsier Studios that delivers the dark, atmospheric action-adventure experience fans expect. Reanimal excels with full co-op support, intriguing storytelling, and excellent direction, though its brief 5-hour campaign and reliance on paid expansions for complete narrative satisfaction hold it back.

Translated from Danish
But even so, the overall experience stands incredibly strong for me, because the decisive moments are hit with precision, and because the climax feels like a natural extension of all the discomfort that has been built up.

    A creepy, atmospheric horror game with excellent map design and level guidance, but hampered by an ambiguous story, short length, and high price point relative to playtime.

    Our analysis

    Reanimal is a solidly made, well-directed atmospheric horror title that represents Ter Studios' best work in their signature style, with exceptional audiovisual design and atmosphere that should appeal to fans of the genre, though the scripted, simple gameplay formula may bore players expecting more complex mechanics.

    Our analysis

    The reviewer praises Reanimal as surpassing Little Nightmares 1 and delivering everything promised by its trailers. Despite minor technical issues and reduced atmosphere in co-op play, the grotesque artistry, atmospheric horror, and strong storytelling create a compelling experience.

    Our analysis

    The creator (and his wife) played Reanimal, Tarsier Studios' Little Nightmares-style co-op horror-puzzle game. He calls it a step down from Little Nightmares 2, criticizing the studio for reusing the same shallow puzzle-platformer formula with almost no innovation despite the two-character co-op hook. Forgettable days after finishing, though the art direction and co-op made it enjoyable in the moment.

    Our analysis

    Reanimal delivers a strong atmospheric horror co-op experience with excellent visuals and cinematic setpieces, though stealth sections can drag and co-op mechanics don't reinvent the wheel. Recommended for players seeking an eerie adventure to share with a friend.

    Our analysis

    Reanimal is a spiritual successor to Little Nightmares that successfully delivers on its atmospheric promises with stunning visuals, engaging storytelling, and exceptional audio design, though it carries over some gameplay issues and suffers from serious co-op connectivity problems.
