Critical reception
[edit]Little Things
[edit]148apps gave it 4 stars, writing "Lose yourself in Little Things. It might be one of the simplest, purest pleasures you've experienced on the iPad yet."[4] PadGadget gave it 4.5/5 stars, commenting "Little Things is a fun game for everyone. If you like games that challenge you by finding lots of hidden objects, this game will bring a relaxing game-play time for you and others. The game is great for any occasion because it’s simple and fun, but yet brings a lot of challenges for you. It’s a very good download for your iPad."[5] TapScape said "Little Things is a fun little iSpy like game with a cartoonish design and timeless feel. This is a great game to have on hand for found moments and gameplay for the entire family."[6] SlideToPlay gave it 3/4, writing " Little Things has a great new approach to hidden object games, but could use some greater optimization. "[7]
Little Things Forever
[edit]Little Things Forever has a rating on Metacritic of 90% based on 5 critic reviews.[8]
Gamezebo said " For three dollars (or five in HD)? This is a game for everyone. "[9] AppSpy wrote " Little Things Forever revisits a classic formula, pairing it with amazing visual design and simple mechanics that prove to be incredibly addictive. "[10] 148Apps said " Little Things Forever won't appeal to those who like tons of action or marauding zombies, but for the mellower solving set and as a family activity it's a delight. It's also the rare game where I urge you to turn the volume up – even the music makes for a wonderfully addictive experience. "[11] PocketGamerUK said " A sublimely understated hidden object game that shows that, sometimes, subtle improvements to a strong foundation are all a sequel needs. "[12] TouchArcade wrote " On every level, Little Things Forever hits all of the right notes: it is easy to pick up, fun to play alone or with a friend, simple yet challenging, and extremely replayable. Fan of the genre or skeptic, there are few games to be found on iOS that are as worth the price as this one. "[13]
