About This Game

Graham is alone in a forest filled with strange wolves. While he’s fleeing for his life he finds a lost girl in an abandoned lodge that won’t survive without his help. Try to find their way to safety in this game filled with puzzles, engaging dialogue and innovative storyline.

But watch out: not everything is what it seems.

A cinematic slow burn thriller with some psychological horror elements told through the classic perspective of point & click adventure games. The Night is Grey is about modern storytelling fused together with hand-drawn animated characters, fully animated backgrounds and an original studio recorded music score.

TRADITIONAL FRAME BY FRAME CHARACTER ANIMATION

Character animations were painstakingly drawn frame by frame. Each animation is 12 frames per second, giving it that classical 2D animations feel.

DIGITALLY PAINTED ANIMATED BACKGROUNDS

Over 50 different locations were painted by hand and individually rearranged and animated, resulting in animated panoramic backgrounds that will suck you in.

FULLY ORIGINAL AND ORCHESTRATED MUSIC SCORE

Our soundtrack was purposefully created to amplify the game's storytelling. All tracks were recorded in studio with different compositions that make the songs dynamic throughout the game.

A LOVE LETTER TO POINT & CLICK ADVENTURE GAMES

This is a cinematic thriller told through the classic perspective of point & click adventure games. You'll solve puzzles through creativity and the exploration of sceneries and characters, while immersing yourself in the story.

FOCUS ON ENGAGING STORYTELLING

The Night is Grey is a modern approach to a classic game style with meticulously written character dialogues, dark humour and a plot filled with unexpected twists.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Although there are just some graphic depictions of violence in the game, the storyline implies the existence of sexual violence as well as a history of physical and mental abuse. The plot in itself might be triggering for some players.
