Midnight Nowhere Hints

Is this game okay for my kids?

  • I'd say no, not if they're under about 16 or so, though you'll have to be the judge for your own kids.

    -- Sexual content is medium high. There's a pretty fair amount of extreme cussing, many *many* of pictures of naked women, and a number of sex jokes.

    -- Violence is moderately low. There are no monsters jumping out at you, you can't die or kill anyone, and the only time you get to use a gun is to shoot out a locked door. On the other hand, there are nastily-slaughtered bodies littering the landscape wherever you go, with lots of blood and/or guts. The creep-out factor is pretty high, though I admit I'm easily spooked.

    -- The puzzles are pretty hard, made more so by the usual translation difficulties and cultural road bumps you encounter when you transfer a Russian game to a Western audience. This is a brain game, not a reflex or hand-eye coordination game.

    So all in all, I'd take the Mature rating seriously. I'd generally gauge the game to be geared to late teens/early twenties and up, based on the themes, the complexity of the puzzles, and the lack of timed (i.e., reflex-based) puzzles.
