Our take on Deadly Night
Rather than centering a slasher game on fighting the killer, this one frames survival as a stealth pursuit. Hiding and evasion take priority, while multiple endings provide different outcomes to the cinematic story.
What is Deadly Night?
While hitchhiking across the country, Carol arrives at a secluded motel and becomes entangled in a lethal chase.
This stealth slasher asks players to hide in closets, beneath beds, or inside cabinets, then escape or deceive the pursuer. The story moves through a derelict house, bleak fields, and a forest maze, as well as nightmare settings formed by a traumatized mind. PS1-era low-poly graphics accompany a cinematic presentation. Multiple endings lead to different outcomes, including saving everyone or killing them all. The game supports plug-and-play gamepads and contains horror, nudity, and graphic violence.
