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?

Refund, until game will be patched normally. In general, i liked the art style and thick atmosphere. Will definetely buy it once they will fix all of the problems. Also, whats the point of panic meter and falling while running, if there is no stalker ? Especially, when pays a homage to the Clock Tower
I enjoyed playing this game. It has great graphics, and the sound design is excellent, the subtle noises add to the tension. I had fun exploring the rooms, uncovering secrets and solving the puzzles. I love the scary stuffs, like the hanging corpse in Sarah's nightmare and the monster in the basement. I highly recommend this game! I can't wait to explore more of it..

Классический квест, я дал игре шанс, но ходить кругами пока не случиться какой-то сраный не очевидный и не предсказуемый триег, это просто ♥♥♥♥♥♥. Я люблю пиксельную графику, сложные игры и тд. но это просто кусок говна который затягивает геймплей и в моменте когда ты понимаешь что игра кал у тебя уже прошло больше 2-х часов и ты не можешь её вернуть потому что разраб заставляет тебя ХОДИТЬ С ЕБУЧЕЙ ЗАЖЕГАЛКОЙ, ЧТО БЫ ТЫ НЕ МОГ БЕГАТЬ.
[h1]这栋房子有问题[/h1] [h3]前言[/h3] 在很早的时候,因为看过《钟楼》的解说,所以对这个系列以及其特殊的玩法与猎奇的内容产生了浓厚的兴趣。只不过那个时候要体验游戏的话,对我的电脑来说难度太大了(主要是懒得折腾)。所以当我看到《夜不能魅》时,我脑海里的第一反应,就是《钟楼》 毫无疑问,这是一款带有强烈致敬意味的恐怖游戏。如今随着游戏正式版的推出,我也终于能够好好体验这部作品了。 [h3]孩子们都去哪了?[/h3] 故事发生在1987年的缅因州,在一个暴风雨的夜晚,你作为博伊德家族聘请来的保姆,来到了这里。在你照顾完家中的两位孩子后做了怪梦——梦里你被奇怪的生物追逐,挂在墙上的鹿头对你发出耻笑,正当你要被杀死时醒了过来。但真正的噩梦才刚刚开始,你发现,孩子们失踪了。 与此同时,宅邸里的怪事越来越多,神秘的电话、冰箱里会说话的人头,还有地下室的酒桶里……哦不,千万别去看,不要步入那黑暗的深渊……。 [h2]精美的像素风与梦回90年代的音乐[/h2] 本作的像素风真的相当精美,尤其是主角跑动,以及遭遇诡异事件时的那种细腻又流畅的动态感,我只能用舒适来形容。 游戏整体也刻意复刻了90年代老式恐怖游戏的视觉风格。低分辨率的画面、昏暗的色调,再加上像素本身所带来的模糊感与不确定性,反而让整个游戏的诡异氛围更上一层楼,突然出现的阴间音效,时不时也会让我虎躯一震。 其音乐风格也是同理,我是蛮喜欢的,虽然我对音乐方面不太擅长描述,但在游玩过程中我依旧会随着旋律偶尔哼哼一下。 [h3]点点点,我点点点[/h3] 玩法方面也是相当传统的点击式解谜,点到哪主角走到哪,在地图中寻找道具,然后进行交互。不过进行交互的过程还挺麻烦的,需要玩家点卡物品栏(I键)——点击道具,关闭物品栏,然后在对应位置上使用。本来想着单手就可以操作,结果还是需要玩家使用另一只手操纵键盘。 不过游戏中并没有血条的设计,取而代之的是一个类似SAN值的玩意,如果主角遭遇了灵异事件,并表现的像个“调查员”一样选择去介入,就会看到屏幕上出现血丝一样的视觉表现。在游戏中可以通过点蜡烛来回复(会有绿色的特效)。 [h2]人无完人,游戏也是[/h2] 虽说已经是正式版了,但游戏中依然存在不少问题等着被修复。例如茶室中的钢琴谜题,第一遍就算弹对了也依旧无法触发,需要重置后弹第二遍才可以。 还有游戏中的谜题引导很差,很多时候我光拿到道具,却不知道要如何寻找谜题,最后就只能变成满屋子里乱转。而且教程方面的汉化与完善也存在问题,开灯翻译成了点燃,还有些就是英文原文直接没翻译。还有希望制作组在之后的更新能够修正这些问题。 需要注意一点,游戏前期的节奏极慢,尤其是在噩梦苏醒之后,由于房屋内停电没有灯光,所以只能使用打火机,但是打火机带来的负面效果就是只能走路,不能奔跑,且整个过程就是以解谜为主,惊吓内容很少,也没有任何追逐战之类的设定,搭配引导性交叉的解谜,让这段内容极其冗长。 还有一个我认为比较重要的,也是上文提到了我就在这里顺便说了,本作虽然标为《钟楼》的精神续作,却没有钟楼那种标志性的怪人追逐,从而让游戏在游玩方面欠缺了恐怖游戏应该有的紧张感。 [h3]结语[/h3] 本作作为《钟楼》的精神续作,确实是延续了其画风与诡异恐怖的氛围。点击式的玩法也确实会让人梦回90年代那一系列经典的恐怖游戏。但游戏中的BUG以及翻译问题还有待解决,同时整体节奏偏慢,也没有多少真正的追逐体验来让玩家感到紧张,反而让整体向着解谜游戏的方向靠拢。但充满悬疑的剧情故事,以及惊悚的画面演出,依旧会让人觉得值回票价,加上平日折扣时的力度也不错。总的来说,这是一款需要慢慢耐下性子玩的作品。 [quote]漫话漫谈,期待关注:[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44551694/]写生漫话家[/url] ←节约宝贵时间,阅读省流测评~ 欢迎加入漫话家的大家庭:[url=https://steamcommunity.com/groups/14030826]写生漫话家[/url]←共同探讨游戏中的精彩片段,向玩家展现第九艺术的魅力
this game moves at a snails pace and is about as fun as doing your daily chores. As a player of all things horror i cannot recommend.
正式版根本沒比較好 一樣爛,誰玩誰傻逼
这bug也太多了吧,什么都没点包里突然多道具
