Little Nightmares: Nomes & Statues Locations Guide
Hey guys! Ready to dive into the wonderfully creepy world of Little Nightmares? One of the coolest things about this game is hunting down all the hidden collectibles. We're talking about those adorable little Nomes and the not-so-adorable Statues. Finding them all can be a bit tricky, so I’ve put together this comprehensive guide to help you snag every single one. Let's get started!
What are Nomes and Statues in Little Nightmares?
First off, let's clarify what these collectibles are and why you should bother finding them. Nomes are those shy, cone-headed creatures that scurry around The Maw. They’re usually hiding in dark corners or behind objects, and when you find them, they often need a little coaxing to come out. Statues, on the other hand, are eerie, porcelain figures that you can smash. Why smash them? Because it's satisfying, and you get an achievement for it! Plus, completionists like us just have to find them all, right?
Finding these collectibles isn't just about bragging rights. It adds depth to the game's atmosphere and encourages you to explore every nook and cranny of The Maw. Each Nome and Statue is carefully placed to enhance the game's environmental storytelling, giving you little insights into the world's bizarre and unsettling nature. Seriously, the level of detail in Little Nightmares is mind-blowing, and these collectibles are a big part of that. So, let's get into the nitty-gritty of where to find them, shall we?
Chapter 1: The Prison
Alright, let's kick things off with The Prison. This is where your adventure begins, and thankfully, there are a few Nomes and Statues to find right off the bat. Keep your eyes peeled, and don't rush through the areas!
Nome 1
Location: Shortly after you escape your starting cell, you'll find yourself in a larger room with bunk beds. Head to the lower level and check behind the beds on the right side. You should see a Nome peeking out. Approach it, and it will run away. Follow it into a small vent, and you'll find it waiting at the end. Give it a hug!
How to Get It: Just approach the Nome after it stops running and interact with it. Easy peasy!
Statue 1
Location: After the bunk bed room, you'll enter a kitchen area. Look for a stack of drawers. Climb up them, and you’ll spot the Statue sitting on the top drawer.
How to Get It: Jump towards the Statue to smash it. Smashy smashy!
Nome 2
Location: Later in The Prison, you’ll reach a room with a hanging cage. Push the cage to the right until it swings and breaks through a weak wall. Inside this newly opened area, you'll find a Nome.
How to Get It: Just like the first Nome, approach it, and it'll run a short distance before stopping. Give it a hug to collect it.
