“As Hazel, you will explore the mythos and encounter creatures of Southern folklore in a macabre and fantastical world,” the blurb explains. “When disaster strikes her hometown, Hazel is called to become a Weaver: a magical mender of broken bonds and spirits.
“Imbued with these new abilities, Hazel will confront and subdue dangerous creatures, untangle the webs of her own family’s shared past and – if she’s lucky – find her way to a place that feels like home.”
In Eurogamer’s South of Midnight review, we said that “South of Midnight is gloriously pretty, a game of sumptuous environmental detail and rich attention,” but that it can “get tiresome to play.” It was awarded 3 stars.
