About
A short, atmospheric horror story designed to be experienced in a single, late-night sitting.
~25 minutes
Open late at night, you’ve finally realized your dream of running a cozy mazesoba ramen stall. But it’s strange; no other food stands seem to be serving this late.
Boil noodles, chop toppings, and prepare the best midnight mazesoba in the city.
Serve a variety of late-night customers, keep up during meal rushes, and discover what happened to the other stalls that once lined the street.
At the end of each night, purchase new ingredients and upgrades for your stall. Some items can improve orders, while others might affect the strange events around your cart.

As the night deepens, the something in the air begins to shift. The streets grow quiet and uneasy. Lights flicker, shadows stretch, and a sense of unease builds.

Gameplay: Settle into the cozy, meditative rhythm of cooking and serving bowls of mazesoba, balancing preparation with the pace of customer orders.
Mystery: Uncover why your cart is the only one still open after dark, and what happened to the rest of the late-night food vendors.
Endless Mode: Focus on growing your reputation as a food stall owner. Horror elements are turned off, letting you decide between a purely cozy experience tinged with unsettling atmosphere. (Unavailable in the demo)

A fun and genuinely different game! I love the sound design and being lulled into a sense of chill gameplay Post update the game runs smooth AF and the dog was a cute addition
great little game with a really sick aesthetic and fun gameplay loop, the art style is awesome and it nails comforting and creepy vibes at the same time.
It was fun, but disappointing. I enjoyed the demo so I bought the full game, and it really wasn't worth the price. There's basically no story, and I really hated the ending- it puts you in fun variant of the loop and then it just...ends. I found myself just wanting MORE. You could play endless mode, but then there's still no story. And it just really wasn't scary- it tried, but it wasn't. It was an entertaining little game, but not really worth the five bucks. Just go watch a playthrough if you really interested.
I played when this game first came out and really enjoyed the story mode as it was a good spooky but cozy combo. With the new update the endless mode is much better and I have really enjoyed playing. I recommend anyone who enjoys a cooking simulator or wants a cozy intro to the horror genre should play.
[h3][b]TL;DR:[/b] This developer has got good instincts and has made something fun out of incredibly simple tools.[/h3] I'm looking forward to their next projects. A little more polish on base mechanics would be nice since the only bug I found was an intrinsic part of the game that required a restart to keep playing. The game is very short and low stakes so the bug didn't hurt the whole experience. I really enjoyed this. The mechanics are simple and easy to manage. I like that your were confined and my motion sickness problems were grateful you didn't need to panic spin most of the time. [u]The ingredient placement system was particularly nice.[/u] I hate games that don't let you adjust anything in your work space and [u]having the circle spots hold anything you choose was a clever compromise[/u] with limited space. The atmosphere was great and I was surprised that cheap jumpscares weren't the focus. [b]Can definitely recommend.[/b] [b]Bug found:[/b] At times throughout both story and endless mode, you can get a glitch where [u]you can't place the onion for chopping.[/u] I couldn't find a way around it. Even if I did manage to throw the onion away (which didn't always work) I still couldn't refill the onion pot. I had to force close the game more than once and start a brand new endless run each time. The game is very low stakes so it wasn't a big issue, just an annoyance the first couple replay attempts.
Very enjoyable horror/food sim! Only downside was how short it was story-wise. BUT the dev added an endless mode so props to them! Me and my chat really enjoyed this one!
Incredible eggs physics.

Read our full petrifying autopsy here: https://www.retrohorrorgamesmovieslair.com/post/disturbingly-creepy-atmospheric-cooking-horror-game-summoned-deep-chills-scary-indie-psychological This Disturbingly Creepy & Atmospheric Cooking Horror Game Summoned Deep Chills (Scary Indie Psychological Horror) "Developed by MagiStone Games, on the surface, scary indie psychological horror game, Midnight Mazesoba looks like a fairly stereotypical, therapeutic cooking simulator, but thanks to the hauntingly ominous presence of a malevolent spirit out for blood, alongside a series of sinisterly executed thrills, I left the bite-sized experience surprisingly shaken. Especially in the final moments. There's something oddly relaxing and strangely stimulating about concocting culinary delights for paying punters to savor. The tangible ways in which you interact with ingredients, combining delicious food items to serve up tasty cuisine, has always felt strangely satisfying and somewhat soothing to me. Scary psychological horror game, Midnight Mazeesoba executes this aspect of a fun and immersive life sim really well, and not before long, I felt like an unstoppable MasterChef in a deep flow state. But every now and then, Midnight Mazesoba would throw my mental equilibrium off course with a sudden jump scare or eerie moment of detachment that really played unsettling tricks on the psyche. Though a short-lived psychological cooking horror game of around 30 minutes in length, there exist a number of suspensefully directed frights that really caught me off guard. Overall, I highly recommend Midnight Mazesoba for fans of the cooking horror niche, and those seeking a short slice of atmospheric horror." Retro Horror Games Movies Lair
等会???主角被拖走后就没啦???故事模式这么短??半小时都没有?
Today! We found the corpse of "Midnight Mazesoba" Flesh (Visuals): The environment while being confined to the stand, food items and interactable looked good, I wanted to consume and made me hungy Dismemberment (Difficulty): Not difficult at all, did not feel any time pressure besides late game during an event, once you know the routine and where everything is, not hard at all Infestation (Bugs): No bugs noticed besides what gathered from all the food I threw away Corpse Integrity (Story): You open a noodle shop in a dark alley while slowly being told through various sources its haunted or owners disappeared, pretty normal haunted location idea but still kept me interested to see where or what was going to happen Something Off About It? (Ambience): Ambience could be jazzed up some, does get a little eerie at times but some extra events, sound ques, types of customers, maybe different interactions and spooky happening would help, over all, just running a stall at night with the occasional spooky thing, more of a food sim type of game that happens to be haunted unless that is what the dev was going for vs a chiller. How Long To Dismember (Playtime): Played straight through without any silliness, probably around 20 to 25 minutes Value Of Meat (Price): Currently as I type this, cost is $5, offers a few extra modes to keep playing, didn't not explore that, just the pure story mode vs trying the endless mode but felt $5 was fair. There is a demo if you need a taste of the spoopysoba Post Mortem Thoughts: Overall, had fun playing, no idea if how fast I worked mattered but found it a pretty chill horror food sim with some spookiness happening, like I said, didn't play the endless mode as of yet, only the story mode and from that, I enjoyed it, not a bad little game, wanted more spookiness but generally the things that did happen got me pretty good. https://youtu.be/6R8Uk0-EK1Q
