Hide-and-seek is one of the quintessential childhood games anywhere in the world. Some may find it ridiculous to play the game as an adult, but that is where video games step in. Believe it or not, there are hide-and-seek video games that exist and today's #SteamSpotlight feature is one of them.
Not only is it a hide-and-seek game, it also incorporates an activity that not many people may be up for: ghost hunting. Before you think today's #SteamSpotlight feature might be too scary for you because of its ghostly factor, hold off your judgment for a moment and let us tell you more about Midnight Ghost Hunt.
#SteamSpotlight Feature: Midnight Ghost Hunt
Released on March 31, 2022, Midnight Ghost Hunt, to simply put, is a multiplayer hide-and-seek game. As its name suggests, it does involve ghosts.
Developed by Vaulted Sky Games and published by Coffee Stain Publishing, the game pits two teams of four players each against one another. One group are Ghosts and the other are Ghost Hunters. As you may have figured out, the goal of the Hunters is to track down the Ghosts.
According to the game's Steam page, Ghosts can use furniture not only to hide themselves but also as weapons thanks to their telekinetic abilities. Hunters are likewise armed as well and players can choose from an array of weapons as well as other devices that can help them detect the opponents.

What Happens When the Clock Strikes Midnight?
If you think this is just your typical run-of-the-mill hide-and-seek game with a ghostly element, Midnight Ghost Hunt will happily prove you wrong. Tables are turned the moment the clock strikes midnight in the game.
According to the official website of Midnight Ghost Hunt, the moment the clock strikes midnight, it is the Hunters turn to become the hunted.
"The tables turn and Ghosts become supercharged, giving Hunters a limited amount of time to survive their vengeful wrath," the website says.
