The Midnight Stroll finds you in a depressing world the place fireplace is your pal (principally) however a dwelling lantern is a good better buddy (at all times).
You might be The Burnt One, and you end up wandering by a world overtaken by darkness. On condition that it’s perpetually night time right here, fireplace is an especially useful mild supply (and fortunately there’s some matches mendacity round that will help you with that). Then once more, you would possibly probably not 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 more than pleased to provide you an eyeful of their each unsettling element as they devour you complete.
Now, I’m particularly inclined to claymation creatures. A youth spent stumbling throughout claymation horrors like Giant Marge in Pee Wee’s Massive Journey has given me an amazing 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). Nevertheless, 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 sluggish belief you construct with him over the course of the sport left me caring an important deal about his security. Valuing him as a pal in a daunting place that I’m glad I didn’t need to stroll alone.
The Midnight Stroll is scary in its encounters with its many artistic monsters, nevertheless it additionally highlights how essential it’s to have somebody to face your fears with collectively, even in case you have been initially fearful of that buddy to start with.
The Midnight Stroll is obtainable now on the PlayStation Retailer and Steam.
