Inspiration from... 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. How to Save the Game? 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? • Classic Point-and-Click Survival Horror Explore a foreboding environment filled with chilling surprises, puzzles to solve, and secrets to uncover. • A Tribute to Retro Horror Influenced by '70s and '80s horror cinema and '90s gaming, Midnight Special blends nostalgia with heart-pounding suspense. • Atmospheric 16-Bit Graphics Gorgeous handcrafted visuals capture the eerie, cinematic tone in stunning pixel art. • Psychological Thrills Question everything as reality twists and warps around you. Can you trust what you see? • Immersive Audio Design An immersive, spine-tingling soundtrack and unnerving audio cues heighten the tension with every step you take.

Every corner holds a secret, and every clue leads you deeper into a horrifying truth. If you're a fan of: • Classic survival horror • Point-and-click adventures • Atmospheric mysteries that keep you guessing ...then Midnight Special is ready to pull you into the darkness.
