At Dead of Night

About

At Dead of Night casts you as Maya, a student stranded in a remote hotel run by a violent madman named Jimmy Hall. Your friends are tied up and locked in their rooms, leaving you to flee and uncover Jimmy's dark history before he finds you. Using a ghost voice receiver, you summon spirits tied to the hotel who offer cryptic clues and challenge you with puzzles. Stealth and timing are key as you avoid Jimmy's patrols, using shadows and distractions to stay hidden. Exploration mixes with resource management as you balance searching for clues and conserving limited tools. The game’s eerie atmosphere and creative blend of live-action footage with digital environments set it apart. Community ratings on Metacritic average 78%, with many praising the tension of hiding from Jimmy and the gradual reveal of the hotel’s gruesome past. While some found the pacing uneven, the mix of horror and puzzle-solving creates a tense, memorable experience. The ghosts aren’t just scenery, they actively shape the story as you piece together their tragic tales to escape alive.
