About

Everything you see in The Midnight Walk, from the drooling snarl of monsters to the bristling tree tops that line the journey was first sculpted in clay and then 3D scanned to a meticulous level of detail. The result is a uniquely layered fantasy world with an artistic imprint, all realized in breathtaking stop motion. Grab a gamepad and jump into the unknown, or step into the endless night in VR.

This game is an absolute masterpiece !!!! Last time i have felt such emotions on a game was when i played outer wilds. The only downside i could find was that the game babysits you too much in my opinion but appart from that it is a solid 9.5/10, simply wonderful game thank you developpers for blessing us with this banger <3
I could hardly call this a game. You walk around, lighting candles and hiding from monsters. It's all really primitive and you've done it thousands of times. Your companion gets stuck on the environment WAY to much too. I understand WHY they charge so much, but even on sale for $17.99, you're not getting much here. I wouldn't say the story is nonsensical, but it's so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ random, that I have no clue what's going on. The art style and music is top notch though. The overall experience is just alright, but I wouldn't recommend this game to a friend.

Every market we collect.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Gorgeous game and probably the best looking walking simulator out there. If you are not into walking simulators this game is not for you. I would have preferred some more evolution to the gameplay over time, but the art style genuinely makes up for it for me (it will not for everyone). If you are on the fence, wait for a sale and then give it a shot.
Game is exactly what it looks like; beautiful aesthetic, shallow gameplay and storytelling. Generally I think this works in the game's favour, reducing the friction and time moving from set-piece to set piece while still feeling like you're playing rather than watching. The same can be said for the length, which at the four and half hours I spent was enough to feel meaningful without outstaying its welcome. Recommended if a Tim Burton themepark sounds appealing.
I wouldn't recommend the game for a hardcore gamer but rather for someone who'd enjoy just looking at the aesthetics of the entire thing. For me, I found the stop motion, hand crafted art more interesting than actually playing the game. If you just want to enjoy the visuals and the audio, then yes this is beautifully done and a more slow paced, kind of calming in a way, game. It is a lot of just lighting your way and hiding from monsters but I wanted it more for it's visuals and audio. It has a simple game mechanic and is quite nice from the stress of some other games. I'm enjoying it so far.
"Sorrowful Happiness" Are the two words I would use to describe this game if that's all I had. You can tell the developers put a huge amount of care into this work of art, and it is a work of art. It might not be long, at around 5hrs my first playthrough but it does have some replayabilitty to find collectibles and such you missed along the way. You go on this beautiful journey, following your own story but then making stops to aid in multiple other heartfelt stories. The artwork of the claymation is such a wonderful world to explore. The one con I would say about this game is there is no FOV adjustment. If you are sensitive to low FOV like I am you may not want to try this, however, with that being said I am quite sensitive to low FOV and I did ok. The game is essentially a walking simulator with mild gameplay in between. As such the slow movement I was able to do didn't affect me negatively hardly at all. High recommended for being such a breath of fresh air in the gaming industry.
I'm honestly pretty conflicted about this. It's one of those titles I would honestly put as "neutral". The overall aesthetic is great, scenes, mobs, npc's, environments, etc. All top notch. That being said the game has some pretty glaring problems I never see mentioned. They were clearly going for a claymation stop-motion style, which would be great if the animation shenanigans they used didn't break half the time. The constant back and forth between normal animations and what they were trying to do was really hard to ignore once I noticed it. The actual narrative was done in too esoteric of a fashion. I understood what was going on, but I ended up not caring about any of the characters besides the flaming pot that follows you around. That brings me to what for me at least is this game's biggest problem, the last leg of the game or the ending. [spoiler] What is clearly meant to be the "good" ending has you, the pot, and the house all dead. I'm beyond tired of this trend where stories aren't allowed to have a happy ending. [/spoiler] It was certainly an interesting experience, but I was left grossly unfulfilled due to the reasons mentioned.
I really liked Midnight walk. I found it to be a pretty great linear adventure through a uniquely handcrafted world, with an amazing soundtrack. If you rush you can probably complete the game in under four hours, to collect everything will likely set you back five or six. Overall a short game, but overall I found it to be excellent, and I would look forward to see what this developer makes next. I did not have a lot to say about this one besides that I enjoyed it, and to praise its uniqueness.
Probably the most beautiful Horror game that I've personally ever played. Great story, The music was so haunting but also very calming. the stop motion art style and puppetry was gorgeous. I'm going to be thinking about this game for a while. I did run into a few bugs and there were one or two times a monster spotted me when I thought I should have been safe. but in the end it was a positive experience. Highly recommended~
非常棒的游戏👍我个人非常非常喜欢,尤其是陶罐仔!没有他的全程陪伴,路痴的我会非常苦恼,也会更加孤独。因为有陶罐仔,所以一路上倍感温暖,而且他真的超级可爱~故事性、叙事性都很好,第一次在玩惊悚恐怖类的游戏中,能有勇气冲着怪物正面突击,以前玩恐怖惊悚类,我都是敌动我不动,敌不动我还是不动,我能蹲在一个地方跟诡异死熬!😬总之我个人非常推荐这个游戏~最后谢谢剧本娘(郎|),我喜欢那句话:在你的午夜幽途,不要忘记微笑。
