A Cosy Horror Game For Halloween! - The Midnight Walk (2025) | The Beautiful Games Club

A book club for games, by people that make them 🎧

The Beautiful Games Club is a monthly club for beautifully made games, run by the team behind Monument Valley, Alba and Assemble with Care. Each month, we pick one beautiful game and give it the attention it deserves: what it does to you, how it does it, and the decisions behind it. Curation you can trust, from the people who make this stuff.

For episode 8 we're going on a journey - The Midnight Walk. Along with Potboy, your cute companion, you must try to reach Moon Mountain and restore light to the world. The game features a post-apocalyptic, stop-motion world of clay. MoonHood studios took nearly three years to bring The Midnight Walk to life, starting out as a VR title, before being available for those without a headset.

⚠️ FULL SPOILERS for The Midnight Walk throughout, including the ending. Listen with caution if you haven't played!

The Midnight Walk is available on Steam, Playstation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2, for approximately £24.99.
