Propnight

I really like the cut of your jib is what I would say if Propnight was a person and if I was sure I was using that phrase right! As someone who loves horror of all types such as movies, books, toys, and of course video games! As soon as I heard about this game, I knew it was something that I had to take a closer look at. That is exactly what we are doing today as we get a little closer look at this multiplayer horror game and why I am pretty sure it is going to be a pretty big hit on places like YouTube and Twitch!

Kids Are Going Missing

The whole plot of Propnight could not be any more cliché, but I kind of like it. The basics are that the game is set in a small town in the USA, where many horror movies take place and kids have been going missing.

No one knows for sure who or what is causing this, but you play as one of a group of teens trying to survive the night. Or, you play as the deranged killer trying to add more bodies to their collection. In all honesty, I am not exactly sure how story driven this thing is going to be, but the premise at least is pretty solid.

A Real Sense Of Familiarity

Two games come to racing to the front of my mind when I look at Propnight. These are Prop Hunt from Call of Duty and the horror multiplayer game, Dead by Daylight. I have to believe that both of those games were a massive inspiration for what has been attempted here. And you know what? I am cool with that as those are two fantastic multiplayer games.

I’m A Survivor

There are two ways to play this game and the first way is playing as a survivor. You play as one of the teenagers who is trying to avoid the killer. The interesting way that you do this is by turning into a prop! It can be a car, barrel, tire, or whatever. You fix these prop machines and that allows you to turn into things. From here the game becomes a kind of physics-based deal as you try and hide and keep away from the killer.

It!

The whole premise of a killer chasing kids in Propnight gives me some major, Stephen King It vibes. You get to play as a few different killers in the game and it is your job to hunt the teenagers down and kill all four of them. Of course, the fact that they can turn into props around the map means that this is going to be trickier than you would think. The killer that I like the look of is like a cross between The Nun from The Conjuring series with a bit of Freddy Kruger mixed in!

It is still hard to say if Propnight is going to have the legs that a game like Dead by Daylight offers, but I think there is something very special here. The way you can turn into things and the fact the game has these crazy physics is going to make for some very hilarious matches.

Pros:

• I like the whole premise of the small-town USA setting
• The killers look pretty crazy
• Being able to turn into something is pretty crazy
• This is the kind of game that is going to be a blast to play with your friends

Cons:

• Not sure if there is going to be much in the way of a story
• Also, not sure if it will have the depth of something like Dead by Daylight
