Shift At Midnight

Shift At Midnight is an indie title from developer Bun Muen and publisher Kwalee, tagged as a simulation with a horror twist. You play a worker keeping a gas station running through the night, restocking shelves, receiving deliveries, keeping the store tidy, and meeting each night's sales target. The setting is an ordinary workplace, and that everyday routine is what makes the horror feel so unsettling when things go wrong.

The core loop revolves around interrogating customers. While you serve them, you can ask each one up to five questions, check their identification, cross-reference details on the in-store computer, and watch how they behave. Before you let anyone leave, you need to be confident they are human, because a customer you misjudge can return before the shift ends to hunt you and your partners. If you decide someone is not human, execution may be your only option, and you still have to clean up afterward. Every shift is randomly generated, and the store description says no shift repeats.

When a creature escapes the store, the description says the situation quickly spirals out of control. You need to lock the doors, set traps, and find a safe place to hide, and survival is never guaranteed. The doppelgängers are described as transforming into monstrous forms and coming back for another attempt.

Multiplayer sits at the center of the design. The game supports up to three players in online co-op, and built-in proximity voice chat is meant to heighten the tension when you are close to your teammates. You can also customize your character. The related team plans a free Endless Mode major update in the fourth quarter of 2026, promising new customers, weapons, traps, and creatures, though that content is still ahead.

• Supports up to three players in online co-op, so you can work the night shift with friends.
• Built-in proximity voice chat lets nearby teammates talk, which the store page says greatly heightens the sense of presence.
• Customer interrogation lets you ask up to five questions, check IDs, and cross-check details on a computer.
• Every night shift is randomly generated, and the store description says no two shifts repeat.
• Gas station management tasks include restocking shelves, receiving deliveries, and keeping the store clean and orderly.
• Barricading doors, setting traps, and hiding are your main tools when a creature gets out of the store.
