About the Game

Bring your own friends

You probably won't find anyone online, so make sure to bring a friend!

Supernatural mayhem
Be prepared for anything as the monsters abilities keep evolving and changing!
The monster player has limited control over their next ability so they will also have to think quickly to make the best use of them!


It's in the shadows
Hide in the shadows and kill your prey one by one!
Stalk your prey from a distance and stay as close as possible without being seen. Then strike before they have time to react!

You're completely invisible in the shadows. Avoid light at all cost!


Defend yourself
Use various improvised weapons and gadgets to locate and defend from the monster.
Use the right tool at the right time to shift the tides!


Survive and banish it
Work together to survive and banish the monster once and for all!
Don't forget to check the shadows and keep a light source close by, once it decides to attack it's already too late!


1 monster vs up to 5 humans
Work with your friends or try to brutally murder them!

The game supports proximity chat with other effects like echo in certain locations.

Learning curve warning
Midnight Mayhem has some unique mechanics that take time to master. If you're looking for a simple game you can pick up in a couple minutes, this may not be the game for you.
