Midnight Girl
Review

Midnight Girl (2023) is a point-and-click adventure set in France during the Sixties. In a world that draws on a Tintin art style, you explore a hand-drawn world as a cat burglar to pull off your biggest heist yet. It's an unusual mix of theme, mystery and a love of Belgian comics.

Teenage tomboy, Monique, survives life in the city of Paris by pulling off minor burglaries. But after a heist goes wrong, she ends up in jail and escapes with an enigmatic stranger. Together they hatch a plot to steal a precious diamond. It's a quest that takes them to a catholic monastery, a Parisian metro station and the Catacombs.

The result is an intriguing game full of story and atmosphere. It plays like a point-and-click game but mixes in elements of stealth, discovery and puzzle-solving.
