You wake up in a mortuary, zipped into a body bag. Corpses
lie scattered all around you... But the nightmare has just
begun, and even death offers no release. Packed with fiendish
puzzles, gruesome murders, twisted morals, and serial murder,
this game mixes in sexual perversion, sick satire, and a dash
of necrophilia...
Midnight
Nowhere is
a standard point and click game with a hell of a nasty twist.
Imagine asking four of your sickest, most deranged friends
(?) round and between you trying to design a game that would
shock! You probably wouldn't even come close to what the weirdoes
at Oxygen Interactive have produced.
By
the way, that's not an insult - it's a compliment. This
game is fantastically funny - although I can see pressure
groups trying to get this banned for it's un-PC content.
There
are problems with the gameplay though. This is not an easy
game, and you really are going to have to try everything -
however unlikely you think the outcome will be be - in order
to progress through this game.
The
opening level took me ages to solve, and it did rely on some
pretty ropey logic. I needed to get the axe from behind the
glass. Now, these things are designed to be broken in an emergency,
so why could I not wrap my coat around my fist and punch the
glass through, or pick up an object and smash the glass that
way? No, instead I needed to find a number... well, I won't
go into the solution, but let's just say it was a little cumbersome.
Then
there is the "sick" content. To be honest, most
of it is just funny - which is what it is supposed to be.
And the other "shocking" moments took me back to
the first time I played Resident Evil in the dark on
my own... the suspense nearly killed me.
And
as for the "shock porno" content... This is tongue
in cheek too. To be honest I've seen worse in high street
Men's magazines and some of the knee-jerk reaction levelled
at the smutty content, by other websites and magazines, is
laughably over the top. We live in a society where young children
can see naked women courtesy of The Sun newspaper for
goodness sake.
There
are translation problems too - this game is Russian in origin.
And some of the text should have been proof read a little
better.
If
you are looking for a game where you skip around in a meadow,
reading Bible stories to the young disabled children that
you have adopted, then you are going to be in for a shock.
However, if you have a sense of humour and like your games
next to impossible to complete... then you'll love this.
