The Midnight Walk is an adventure game with horror and stealth elements. The project stands out due to its graphic design, which was created using an unusual technique. The independent studio MoonHood is responsible for developing this title - they are a team founded by people whose portfolio includes the warmly received Ghost Giant.
In The Midnight Walk we find ourselves in a gloomy, fantasy land, or more precisely – on the titular winding route. During the game we take on the role of The Burnt One and in the company of the lamp creature known as Potboy we travel the road, learning five tales of fire and darkness . On the way, we must be aware of the dangers posed by the lurking Darkness.
In The Midnight Walk we view the action from the first (FPP) and third (TPP) person perspective. While exploring spooky locations, we must be on guard, as they are teeming with fire-breathing monsters that pose a deadly danger to both us and our companion. To survive, we must be cunning, including distracting enemies with Potboy's flame and sneaking behind their backs.
Clay was used to create the graphic design of The Midnight Walk. All its elements were made from it - from enemies to all sorts of objects. Then they were scanned in three dimensions and set in motion using stop-motion animation.
Additionally, The Midnight Walk offers for virtual reality sets, but does not require them to operate.

Game Ratings for The Midnight Walk Video Game.
NextPlay: 8 / 10 by Brad Goodwin
The Midnight Walk is a light horror adventure that is brimming with personality and charm thanks to the worldbuilding and exceptional art design. Fans of horror akin to Tim Burton’s wheelhouse will love this game and the peculiar characters in it, but the choice to create a game with a non-VR and VR mode, while irable, may have been to its detriment.
Push Square: 8 / 10 by Aaron Bayne
As we rolled credits on The Midnight Walk, any issues we had technically or otherwise had long since faded away. Instead, what stood out to us was the game's haunting world filled with pensive storylines, impactful visuals, and an emotionally weighty score.If you're expecting an engaging survival horror gameplay experience, you won't find it here. That may have been what we were looking for as we first played the game - especially considering the VR format. But what we got instead was memorable, moving, and evocatively melancholic. The Midnight Walk is not a game we'll forget anytime soon.

It draws you in with its fascinating early chapters, but it can't quite keep up the same level of puzzling intrigue throughout the rest of the game.
