Night: Silent Killer

Night: Silent Killer is a story-driven game set in the overhead dimension [network]. You play as Night, a robot created by the master and given the power to protect them during a Ceremony. As you follow the procedure, you learn more about the host and the enemy, and must choose a side as you approach the truth.

The Ceremony

You can play as a defender following the routine of the Ceremony or as an enemy who brings chaos. The host and the enemy offer different views of the same events. Their words guide you through the BlueBird battlefield as you decide whom to trust and what to do.

The enemy can disguise themselves as one of your allies, so you must look for differences. The host’s troubled spirit, confused words and the enemy’s vague messages all obscure what happened before Night was created. The game also asks whether your purpose is truly to protect the master, what should happen during the Ceremony, and whether you should follow advice that could free you from it.

Combat and powers

The master grants Night several ways to attack, including energy, strength, a heavy wrench and fast missiles. A powerful being called Red Ghost gives Night Power. Past choices can alter the program and grant powers associated with angels and ghosts, including destructive Light and Darkness abilities.

Puzzles and choices

Some sections of Cyberspace contain puzzles. Choices and discoveries shape how Night’s powers develop and which path you follow. The description also outlines a route in which you help the enemy “Spams” after Chapter 2: during each Ceremony, find and destroy cars that launch no red shells or have unexplained losses of life. After Chapter 3, Light transformation can help distinguish them.
