This feels like a remastered game from 2006.
South of Midnight, как и все игры Compulsion games, представляет из себя конфету с привлекательной необычной оберткой, будь то графика, стилистика или музыка, но внутри этой конфеты начинка из первосортного дерьма, сам геймплей, за три выпущенные игры ничего не поменялось. За боссов отдельное "спасибо", очень надеюсь что у того кто придумал три по два и три по три раза делать одно и то же в скором времени постигнет деменция

A lovely story that will connect with you if you are from the south or black OR MAYBE EVEN BOTH. Its wonderful buy it and give the game a shot
A fun game with a beautiful story. I can't recommend South of Midnight enough.
South of Midnight ist ein Spiel, das weniger durch Wucht als durch Stimmung überzeugt. Compulsion Games entführt in einen mystisch aufgeladenen Süden der USA, in dem Folklore, Verlust und persönliche Reifung zu einer ruhig erzählten, überraschend warmherzigen Geschichte verschmelzen. Die Erzählung rund um Protagonistin Hazel bleibt angenehm bodenständig und entfaltet ihre Wirkung ohne Pathos, dafür mit Gefühl. Visuell zeigt sich das Abenteuer von seiner besten Seite: Die stilisierte Grafik, das liebevolle Charakter- und Weltdesign sowie die dichte Atmosphäre machen jede Spielstunde reizvoll. Auch der Spielflow stimmt – Erkundung, Story und Action greifen sauber ineinander, ohne den Spieler unnötig auszubremsen. Das Gameplay ist abwechslungsreich genug, um über die gesamte Spielzeit zu tragen. Doch South of Midnight kann seine Herkunft als Low-Budget-Produktion nicht vollständig verbergen. Die Inszenierung bleibt zurückhaltend, große Schauwerte oder cineastische Höhepunkte sind rar. Besonders die Kämpfe enttäuschen auf mittlerem Schwierigkeitsgrad: Sie sind zu leicht, zu vorhersehbar und durch ihren klaren Arenacharakter wenig reizvoll. Was spielerisch solide beginnt, verliert dadurch schnell an Spannung. Unterm Strich ist South of Midnight ein charmantes, atmosphärisch starkes Abenteuer mit Herz und Stil – kein großes Spektakel, aber ein erzählerisch stimmiges Erlebnis für Spieler, die Atmosphäre und Welt mehr schätzen als spielerische Herausforderung.

⭐ Steam Review for: South of Midnight ⭐ ⏱️ Playtime: 18.3 Hours What really stayed with me though were the stories and characters. The concept was very unique. Some parts were genuinely sad. You can feel how much care was put into everything the story, the characters, the environments, the music. The world has this really beautiful but haunting feeling to it that kept pulling me in the whole time. 🌙🪡🌫️ I really loved the art style. Some scenes genuinely looked so pretty that I just stopped moving for a second to look around. Combined with the music, the whole game has such a strong atmosphere. The soundtrack especially made emotional moments hit way harder for me.🐊⛈️ As someone who’s still relatively new to gaming, there were definitely moments where the game challenged me😭. Especially during some fights and timed runs. But honestly, I ended up liking that because by the end of the game I could actually notice myself getting better and feeling more confident during combat instead of panicking the whole time.🐦🔥✨
I love the tale, character design and music of this game! It's beautifully written/designed and kinda my comfy place atm [strike](combat gets repetitive though). [/strike] Kay I am officially annoyed by the combat system and the running/action scenes inbetween just prolong fights which are 1:1 what you did before. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!111!!! I wanna complete the game. It is soso pretty and whimsical. But will I?!
Really enjoyed the story and the visuals were incredible. Gameplay was really fun but can be a little repetitive. You can tell it was made with a lot of love! 7/10
It's technically weak (can get stuck in environment for instance), got way too much collectibles for its own good (without allowing backtracking when it certainly could) and a stupid design decision to limit frames in animation makes it awful to watch. I am not having a good time. You can add 6 different enemies top which are not fun, unskippable scenes (when they're not cutscenes). Damn, I just want this nightmare to end.
Great story, if you like games like Uncharted then you should definitely play this.
