ImpulsegamerSep 20254.1/5Midnight 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.

PlayStation UniverseBen FellowsAug 20257.5/10Clever, 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.

Digital ChumpsNathaniel StevensAug 20257.7/10Midnight 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.

GamingBoltJoelle DanielsAug 20255/10While 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.
