Embark on your journey through The Maw! This guide helps you navigate Chapter 1: The Prison in Little Nightmares, from lighting your way to finding your first collectible.

Alright, so you've just booted up Little Nightmares and found yourself in this creepy place called The Maw. Don't worry, I'm here to help you get your bearings. You'll start out waking up on a trunk in a dark corner.

First things first, let's get you moving. Head to the right, down this dark corridor. You'll want to hold down the run button (that's /) to move quickly. To see where you're going, you'll need your lighter. Flick it on with /. Keep going right until you reach a dead end with a lantern. Get close to it to light it up – this is important for the 'Light Up Your Life' trophy/achievement. Just to the right of the lantern, you'll see a hatch. Grab onto it by holding / and pull away to open it. Then, hold / to crawl through the vent.

Once you pop out the other side, follow the path to the right and head up the stairs. You'll find a small alcove with your first collectible, a Statue [01/10]. Just hold / to pick it up. You're doing great!
