What players say
This game series is new to me, and this is my first one. I was not disappointed. The story is very engaging and makes you want to know what is going to happen. The graphics are good, it's a classic style and doesn't go overboard by droning on and on. They seem to be short games, like a good television episode. I liked it so much, I am going right now to buy the whole series. If you like point-and-click and stories...

truly harrowing, a level of disturbing psychological horror that really got to me
My first entry into the Midnight Scenes series and I think one of my favorite installments. I can't wait to play the others, it's certainly worth full price. I got roped in immediately
