Compulsion Games' latest release, 'South of Midnight,' presents a gripping narrative set in a unique, magical world. Following Hazel Flood on her quest to find her mother, players navigate a beautifully rendered Gothic landscape filled with talking animals and emotional resonance. The game, characterized by its minimalist story structure and striking sound design, draws heavily from the cultural inspirations of the American South, particularly through its music. While the combat mechanics could benefit from refinement, the overall artistic expression makes it a remarkable addition to the action-adventure genre.
The level design and art direction are (literally) otherworldly, with some of the most beautiful sound design and music of any game this year.
Hazel Flood's search for her mother leads her into a magical, Gothic-fantasy world populated by talking animals while learning about her family's troubled past.
