Handheld Players writes: "Yomawari: Midnight Shadows is a very good game. If you enjoyed the first Yomawari, then you will enjoy Midnight Shadows. The gameplay and style is pretty much the same which is no bad thing since the first game was also so good. Midnight Shadows perfectly nails the horror atmosphere with its slow player movement and chilling sound effects. This is a game that should be played in the dark with headphones on, letting yourself just feel the scares and tension of being a helpless child exploring a town full of monsters at night."
Companies seem to relish the opportunity to bring older games to the Nintendo Switch. One of those companies is NIS America, as it has already brought Disgaea 1 Complete and Disgaea 5 Complete to the platform. Now, it is doing the same thing in October 2018 with Yomawari: The Long Night Collection, a compilation containing Yomawari: Night Alone and Yomawari: Midnight Shadow. But what are these games? What should people know about them?
Yomawari Midnight Shadows is available on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita now. Here is a short review from Jake Smith.
TSA writes: "I absolutely love atmospheric horror, but I have a hard time dealing with horror games or films that rely on frequent jump scares and nightmare inducing imagery. For me, the sweet spot of horror lies somewhere between silence and scare. A good horror game can throw sudden audio queues or surprising imagery at you, but it needs to be earned, and should punctuate the experience, not define it. The ideal horror game, for me, will leave your heart rate high and your sense of ease low, long after the credits roll, and all without using a single sudden banshee screech."
