Nocturnals is an intriguing adventure game set in the hauntingly beautiful, post-apocalyptic town of Ruddleside. Players follow the emotional journey of two boys, Ted and Diego, as they navigate their developing friendship amidst desolation. The game emphasizes exploration, puzzle-solving, and decision-making, with choices impacting the relationship and narrative outcomes. Each decision players make is significant, influencing how the story unfolds and affecting the fates of the characters involved.
The stylized 3D environments enhance the atmospheric experience, drawing players into Ruddleside’s haunting landscape. While the narrative is intimate and grounded, exploring themes of loneliness and companionship, the game does feature graphic cartoon violence and profanity that may not be suitable for all audiences. With a relatively short playtime and straightforward puzzles, Nocturnals offers a poignant, replayable experience that highlights the importance of choices, though it may leave players desiring more complexity.
