About
The gory thrills of giallo, the suspense of slashers, and the otherworldly charm of 70s and 80s sci-fi.
We're thrilled to bring you a chilling adventure that blends cinematic horror with the nostalgic vibes of '90s 16-bit games.
After waking from the nightmare and answering the mysterious phone call, Sarah can unlock manual saving by interacting with the cigarette pack in the kitchen.
How to use it: In your inventory, drag the cigarette onto the lighter to bring up the save menu.

Midnight Special is a point-and-click survival horror experience that echoes the spirit of '90s classics like Clock Tower and Resident Evil. Set in the late '80s at Boyd Manor, you step into the shoes of Sarah, a babysitter tasked with watching over Jon and Ellie Boyd for the night.
What begins as an ordinary evening takes a sinister turn.
The power goes out, plunging the house into pitch-black darkness. With each step, reality twists into something far more disturbing.
Bizarre phone calls, a deranged stalker perhaps?
Unpleasant odors seeping up from the floorboards.
Objects moving on their own as if possessed.
A life-sized plastic dinosaur that seems... alive.
Has Sarah lost her mind? Or has something far more sinister taken root?

버그가 너무 많아요 이게임 버그패치 안해주시는거 같은데 개발자가 이 글을 보고있다면 버그문제점을 좀고쳐야할거같습니다 버그로 게임플레이를 못해요 돈주고 샀지만
只能说珍惜出中文的独立恐游,好几个很感兴趣的恐游都没中文,这个有中文已经谢天谢地了。当然游戏本身也很吸引人,喜欢这种复古像素风游戏😋
Very bizarre game. No easy save method (learned the hard way after dying to the bear and had to start all over again). I am stuck in the studio unable to put the lit candle in the fireplace and move on. Cannot leave this room and there is a door that cannot unlock. It tired me out after 3 hours and quit. Read some guides, not a clue. You can be locked out pretty easily if you make a mistake. Too bad because I absolutely love pixelated games and adored the story.
[h2]这样一座恐怖宅邸里你还睡得着吗?[/h2] [h2]游戏推荐指数:★★★★★★★☆☆☆[/h2] 复古像素风的恐怖解谜游戏,假如设置里什么都不调的话很有十年前的游戏那味儿。 游戏整体的氛围,借由美术和音效,实现得非常优秀:恰到好处的烛光亮度,墙上的壁画、肖像,地上的熊皮地毯,营造了一个充满18世纪英伦风的庄园宅邸;恐怖的地方也还好,算不上非常吓人,对于笔者这样一个受不得惊吓的人来说刚刚好,甚至部分恐怖的地方如果克服心理会发现其实有不少幽默的地方能逗玩家一笑。 解密方面难度不算高,但是需要搜图非常仔细,如果漏掉一些地方没有调查可能会在某些谜题面前出现卡关的状况。 剧情么是采用了碎片化的叙事,直接在游戏里告诉你的只是很少的一部分,许多剧情都需要玩家从收集到的“信件”“日记”之类的道具里自己进行整理拼凑,得出整个事件的真相 但是就是说画面复古可以,许多操作怎么也做的这么原始?打开背包使用道具这样简单的操作在游戏中实现起来非常繁琐;然后奔跑的操作也很奇怪,玩起来有点别扭;另外就是开门进入房间的加载时间有点长,这些是比较影响游戏体验的部分。 另外在游玩电脑小游戏第三关时,出现了在操纵角色没有收集完物品直接到达终点会卡死,无法通关也无法退出,就卡那儿的问题,希望看到的话能修复一下。 整体而言笔者的游玩体验还是相当不错的,虽然地毯式搜图会有些许的乏味,但在游戏非常棒的氛围烘托下倒没有产生太多的排斥,是一款不错的恐怖解谜游戏。 [quote] 奏游戏之乐章,品人生之绚烂 [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45672460/]欢迎加入 『 丰川集团 』[/url] [u][b]以丰川集团之名,行评测鉴赏之事[/b][/u][/quote]
BUG,BUG ,BUG.但我发现螺丝刀加爆头可以杀boss,解锁第2种结局
汉化还不完整,希望快点搞好
Nice and simple point and click horror adventure. Very "clock towery" and quite short. Not incredible but absolutely worth one run.
像素加上扫描线是绝配,美术给到五颗星。游戏内的悬疑氛围也非常好。很喜欢所以玩了很多次,之前每次都是遇到bug卡住不能继续游玩,又因为游戏内的存档机制导致我不想再重复打。 看到正式版发售,我再次点开游戏,玩了一个多小时感觉非常好!我很喜欢这样惊悚的氛围,到底是谁抓走了两个小孩,小孩死了吗?主角死了吗?屋内是否有外来者进入?好像一场悬疑剧一样,让人沉浸其中可以忽略技术上的瑕疵,比如道具栏笔记与道君乱成一团,使用道具失败没有提示等—— 直到我顺手存档,又bug了……角色卡在那里,连设置页面也调不出来,我实在是无力游玩。 好累!到底要打几次我才能通关啊!
The game gives me a really cool vibe. Some wacky easter eggs from different cult classics. Quite a lot of things to explore. Recommended 👀
这bug也太多了吧,什么都没点包里突然多道具
