Set in the late 80s at Boyd Manor, you step into the role of Sarah, a babysitter tasked with watching over Jon and Eli Boyd for the night. What starts as an ordinary evening quickly descends into terror when the power goes out, plunging the manor into pitch-black darkness. As you navigate its shadowy corridors, reality begins to twist in unsettling ways.

Mysterious phone calls hint at the presence of a deranged stalker. Unpleasant odors seep up from under the floorboards, and everyday objects seem to move on their own—as if possessed. Even a life-sized plastic dinosaur appears eerily alive, adding to the mounting sense of dread. Is it merely a descent into madness, or has something far more sinister taken hold?

Midnight Special weaves a narrative rich in psychological terror and mystery. Every room hides secrets, every puzzle solved unravels another layer of the disturbing truth, and every sound raises the tension. The atmospheric 16-bit graphics create a cinematic tone that perfectly complements the haunting soundtrack and unnerving audio cues.

Key features include:
• A classic point-and-click gameplay experience filled with exploration, puzzles, and spine-tingling surprises.
• A heartfelt tribute to retro horror, blending the aesthetics of 70s and 80s cinema with 90s gaming nostalgia.
• Handcrafted pixel art that sets a foreboding mood throughout the game.
• A mind-bending narrative that forces you to question reality at every turn.
• An immersive audio design that heightens the tension in every dark corner of Boyd Manor.

If you’re a fan of classic survival horror, point-and-click adventures, and atmospheric mysteries that keep you guessing, Midnight Special is ready to pull you into its dark embrace. Step into the manor, uncover its secrets, and ask yourself—do you dare face the terror lurking in the night?
