Critic Reviews for Midnight Murder Club

The unique first-person shooter Midnight Murder Club exits early access, but it is still not compelling enough.

Still, even with its limited modes and maps (or rather, map, singular), Midnight Murder Club makes for a wildly good time if you can sign up a few friends. It might lack the flash and panache seen in modern live-service titles, but if you’ve been yearning for an online shooter that emphasizes gameplay and good times over all else, look no further.

A huge and luxurious mansion, haunted and full of traps, becomes the setting of deadly challenges between complete strangers. What might seem like the beginning of a book written by Agatha Christie and Stephen King is actually a surprisingly fresh and entertaining party game with a thriller twist. Technically it's not a masterpiece, but if you have a few friends around it could become your favourite multiplayer game until Halloween and beyond.

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.

Midnight Murder Club from developer Velan Studios is a cool idea that will have hardcore online gamers frothing at the mouth to show their stuff. While the entry point for novice players might be difficult, and the lack of longevity beyond modes is a tough sell, what you get with the price point you pay is enticing.

While Midnight Murder Club has some clever ideas and decent core gameplay, the lack of a player base makes it more likely that the game will be killed off before it can recover.

Midnight Murder Club is an original, fun party game with a compelling concept and price, marred by duds of gamemodes and quality of life issues that take away from the experience, but do not ruin it.

Midnight Murder Club feels like one of those games that had the right idea but the wrong execution. The concept of using darkness as a gameplay mechanic is intriguing, but it's as if the developers turned on the flashlight, showed a glimpse of its potential, and then immediately switched it off again, leaving us wandering through a huge, empty mansion.
