About
Heart-pounding and hilarious multiplayer first-person shooter fun. Trust your senses and overcome your fears as you’re armed with a flashlight and a revolver, then set against your friends in a pitch-black mansion with immersive proximity chat and surprises around every corner.
Key Features
- Welcome to the Midnight Murder Club – You’ve been invited to the Midnight Murder Club, an elite group that gives you nothing but a gun and a flashlight before sending you into the darkened halls of a mansion. Conceal your identity behind a mask and join your friends in a game of perception, deception, and sharpshooting. In the darkness, every decision counts.
- Six Guests. One Deadly Game. – The difference between light and dark is important as the Midnight Murder Club’s members are forced to choose between the safety of darkness and the risk of clicking on a flashlight. Spotting someone else gives crucial information, but if you can see them, that means they can see you, too. Rely on your other senses to navigate the mansion and find your opponents.
- Whispers in the Dark – Full proximity chat leads to tense and hysterical moments as you feel your way through the mansion’s dark corridors. Hear muffled footsteps as someone runs down the hallway above you, then creep toward gunshots bleeding through the door to the next room. Hear your rivals’ laughter echo through the tall ceilings after you emerge victorious from a gunfight.
- The Devil’s Toys – Hidden around the mansion are traps, weapons, and other equipment to help you survive the night. Take night vision pills to see in the dark. Don a bulletproof vest to defend against your foes. Immobilize your enemies in a bear trap or light them ablaze with a molotov cocktail. The variety of items makes every match unique.
- A Game of Choice – What game does the Club have in store for your group tonight? Midnight Murder Club has multiple ways to play ranging from classics to objective-based modes that require more thought and strategy as you explore the secrets hiding inside Wormwood Manor.
