Midnight Murder Club Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
Clever, tense, and often hilarious, Midnight Murder Club turns pitch-black mayhem into something memorable. It’s a game of light, sound, and timing that feels unlike anything else in the genre right now. With its originality and unpredictability, it’s easy to recommend—but it’s a ways off the genre-defining moment it hints at being.
It's not the deepest or most expansive online multiplayer game, but you can have a lot of fun with Midnight Murder Club, especially when playing with friends. Sneaking around a pitch-black mansion armed with just a flashlight and a revolver can be a tense affair. And thanks to the Guest Pass system, just one player needs to purchase this bargain offering to play with up to five others.
Midnight Murder Club throws players into complete darkness with nothing but a flashlight, a revolver, and their wits. This indie multiplayer shooter skips elaborate storylines and complex mechanics, instead focusing on creating tense moments through its unique lighting system. In this review, we’ll explore how the game’s simple concept translates into gameplay, examine its various modes, and see whether it has enough content to keep players coming back.
Midnight Murder Club is an enjoyable little game that justifies a modest asking price through its unique premise. Fighting to survive in a pitch black mansion is a lot of fun, but the deserted matchmaking pool means that you ideally need a large group of friends in tow to experience it. The need for a PlayStation account on PC is also annoying, adding a frustrating barrier for players on that platform.
Midnight Murder Club is fun, if flawed, with all the makings of a cult hit, but a live service game needs to be more than culty
Midnight Murder Club is the kind of game that is dependent entirely on who you play with for it to be fun. The core concept is great and lends itself well to funny moments with friends, but the matchmaking experience is dreadful, the PvE mode is a waste of time, and the bot restrictions are head-scratching. If you can scrounge up five friends to play with, Midnight Murder Club is good for some laughs, but everyone else will be better off playing a different multiplayer game.
