The Midnight Walk review


Eurogamer's review of The Midnight Walk, an adventure game for PS5, PS VR2, Steam and PC VR.

It's playable in VR or on a standard screen, and sees you in the role of the mysterious Burnt One, who finds purpose travelling alongside a flaming pot companion, Potboy. Characters, objects, the world, it was all created by model artists and then scanned for use in the game, and that work has paid off quite spectacularly in the stop-motion-esque playable gothic whimsy you can explore. At points the The Midnight Walk delivers, but far too often I found myself lamenting the fact that too much of my time was spent hoping for that next perfect bite, wondering when a story beat would hit home, keen to see if a new gameplay mechanic would excite in the way blinking did.
