Two games with ‘midnight’ in the title are being released today: Midnight Special and The Midnight Walk.
Midnight Special is a horror point-and-click game taking inspiration from 16-bit adventures, giallo, slasher films and 70s/80s sci-fi.
The player is a babysitter in 1978 Maine who must explore a labyrinthine manor in the game’s first episode, with the early access release out today.
The Midnight Walk is a first-person dark adventure where the player explores a clay world to help a chibi lantern brother called Potboy.
The world has gouged and shrunken surfaces alongside twitchy, stop-motion style creatures and insects with hinged facemasks.
Rock, Paper, Shotgun suggests players choose one game to further consider and possibly purchase, as invoking two midnights could have dire cosmic consequences.
