The Midnight Stroll finds you in a dark world the place hearth is your pal (largely) however a dwelling lantern is an excellent larger buddy (all the time).
You might be The Burnt One, and you end up wandering by means of a world overtaken by darkness. Provided that it’s perpetually night time right here, hearth is an especially useful mild supply (and fortunately there’s some matches mendacity round that can assist you with that). Then once more, you may not likely wish to see the issues which can be skulking round this world extra clearly. There are some actually creepy claymation monstrosities which can be out to get you as you discover the sport’s 5 totally different tales, and they’re very happy to provide you an eyeful of their each unsettling element as they devour you entire.
Now, I’m particularly vulnerable to claymation creatures. A youth spent stumbling throughout claymation horrors like Giant Marge in Pee Wee’s Huge Journey has given me an incredible weak spot, and this sport hits that tough with its artistic array of monsters and simply how briskly they’ll begin to chase you down (thank goodness for frequent hiding locations). Nonetheless, this sport additionally tries to redeem the creepy claymation creature for me with Potboy, our scary, but endearing and cute companion for a lot of the journey. One thing about his uneasiness to go on this journey and the gradual belief you construct with him over the course of the sport left me caring an ideal deal about his security. Valuing him as a pal in a daunting place that I’m glad I didn’t must stroll alone.
The Midnight Stroll is horrifying in its encounters with its many artistic monsters, nevertheless it additionally highlights how necessary it’s to have somebody to face your fears with collectively, even for those who had been initially petrified of that buddy to start with.
The Midnight Stroll is obtainable now on the PlayStation Retailer and Steam.
