Don’t let the cute name fool you – Little Things looks ready to put players through the wringer.
Launching today across Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, Play Anywhere and PlayStation 5, this colourful indie platformer blends precision movement, puzzle-solving and gravity-bending mechanics into an adventure that seems equal parts charming and quietly brutal.
Published by Dolores Entertainment, Little Things follows a tiny creature named Whys on a journey through dangerous dungeons in search of their lost love, Kys. Cute? Absolutely. Easy? Probably not.

A Small Hero With Big Challenges Ahead
Little Things is all about movement and mastery.
Players will jump, dash and manipulate gravity itself while navigating more than 80 levels packed with hazards, puzzles and increasingly demanding platforming sequences. There are also colour-based mechanics, the unlocking of new abilities and ways to interact with the environment as the adventure progresses.
The developers even make it clear what to expect: Die. Retry. Adapt. Conquer.
Precision Platforming Meets Puzzle Solving
What helps Little Things stand out is the combination of tight platforming and environmental puzzles.
This isn’t just about reflexes. Players will need to think carefully about how they use abilities, manipulate gravity and interact with each stage in order to progress efficiently. Those chasing fast completion times and bonus rewards should find even more reason to master every movement too.
Visually, the game appears to keep things bright and approachable, balancing the tougher gameplay with colourful environments and a softer overall aesthetic.
There’s always room on Xbox for another precision platformer. Little Things is available now on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 5 and through Play Anywhere support.
