The world of the MoonHood Games' developed title is filled with terrifying creatures that are trying to extinguish Potboy's flame. Your job is to make sure the flame remains alive. As you try to sneak past enemies as the Burnt One, you'll also piece together clues to uncover why the world was plunged into eternal darkness. The core gameplay loop involves exploring five unique biomes, solving problems, and doing anything necessary to protect Potboy's flame.

If you want to delve deeper into the game's lore, you can read the 15-part prequel comic series on the developer MoonHood's channel. It provides a formal introduction to the characters and a background to the campaign.

The Midnight Walk merges Lovecraftian horror with a folklore feel, and its unique handcrafted claymation style makes exploring the in-game world even more eerie. For a frame of reference, another recent title with a similar art design is South of Midnight.

That was all about the MoonHood Game's new horror stealth title and its availability on the Xbox Game Pass.
