At Dead Of Night
At Dead Of Night is part horror film, part horror game and part ghost hunt. It seamlessly blends live-action and graphics to create a unique immersive horror experience like no other. You play Maya, a student trapped in a remote hotel run by a psychopath called Jimmy Hall. Jimmy has tied up Maya’s friends and locked them in their rooms, with evil intentions. Maya has managed to escape, but Jimmy is on the prowl looking for her. However, to get him to release her friends, Maya must uncover Jimmy’s dark secret. Using an ancient ghost voice receiver she finds, Maya must communicate with the ghosts of Jimmy’s past, who materialise around the hotel and gradually reveal their story.

Okay, I'll be honest.... lolllll I thought that Markimoo and Jacksepticeye were over exaggerating their reactions.
NOPE This game is slow burn and horrifying! A point and click horror game and I will always recommend it. Can't wait for At Dead of Night 2!!

I have actually watched other streamers play this game a few times now and really loved the live-action gameplay and also enjoyed that it's not your typical horror/scary game. I'm not a person that enjoys scary games AT ALL, but I do appreciate quality when I see it, so I had to try it out when it was on sale. It doesn't rely on cheap jump scares or blood and gore, it's a suspense-type game. Jimmy seems to bop you when you least expect it! I also love that the game tackled something that can be very scary, and it's not monsters or aliens or zombies. It's ourselves. The details of the hotel was really AMAZING, it has to be a real hotel or a very well done set. The acting by everyone was also superb, Huld did a FANTASTIC job playing two very drastically different roles while not seeming too out there. When I saw the clown theme and music and decor I cringed at first, but it really works. I really really hope the devs make another game like this, I will definitely play it!

One of the most unique games I have ever seen. The whole game you are pointing and clicking and somehow it feels more smooth, more stable, and more intuitive than any other game I can think of. The whole time you are on edge, zooming around every corner clenching your cheeks in hopes that you didn't just mess up. There's also plenty of achievements to keep you playing for much longer than you anticipated.
And when I found out the entire game is just one big VIDEO FILE being played in different sections to create the illusion of gameplay, my jaw was on the floor, I couldn't believe it. Please get this game and support the dev's on their way to make the second game, you won't regret it.

At Dead of Night is a really well made game featuring Full Motion Video. I’ll be honest, I originally saw this game when Astral Spiff playing it on his channel. He made a well-made edited video of him playing through the story, and I enjoyed watching the story of the hotel unfold while watching this stream get bonked by Jimmy throughout the game (because he played the game on Extreme Difficulty). That video came out 3 years ago, and I came across it randomly while looking at Stream, and thought I’d buy the game, since I had enjoyed the video so much. Although I had already seen all the stories, it was still fun running around the hotel, trying not to get caught by Jimmy. The passage of time has also made me forget specifically where each item needed to be used, and which order the items needed to be presented, as remembering the story is one thing, but knowing which items progress the story is another.
Overall, it was fun 100% the game, I would recommend the game to anyone who enjoys story game.
I will say, throughout my entire playthrough I only encountered 1 bug. I had to replay the game a couple times when doing a hitless run on extreme difficulty, so I ran into the same bug a handful of times, but it was easily fixable.
At one point in the game, you are meant to go into the theatre/stage room to witness someone on stage, witnessing it gives you a memory you can then ask a ghost about. Yet for some reason, this event doesn’t always trigger for some reason? It must be a common issue, as a quick google search showed multiple people had the same issue, and the fix is simply save the game, close it, and then boot up the game again. This method worked for me every time. Considering I played the game for near 16 hours, only encountering this 1 bug was quite impressive for me.

Top tier game that scares the crap out of me... IF you enjoy horror games with like an amazing story-line that keeps you captivated THIS. IS. IT.
PLUS the game is entirely in a point and click style which I find very unique. Even though it reduces the amount of movement you can make compared to an open world game, the devs still have found a way to make it still scary, not boring, and a lot of other things.
I GREATLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME !!!!!

This game is disgusting. I still have this sick feeling in my stomach from when I first played it hours ago. I love it...

i cannot fathom how this possibly functions on a technical level and its baffling me, also the game is very fun and jimmy is scarier than most horror game villains despite just being a funny looking bald man. 9.5/10
