Night Portable

Night Portable is a horror game set in a secondhand video game store in the 2000s, where retro handheld games, 3D night-shift survival, and an adventure through the past intertwine.

After taking a suspiciously high-paying night job, you are assigned to work alone inside the store from midnight until 6:00 AM for several nights.

Your duties should be nothing more than cleaning and restocking. But there is something inside the locked store.

◆ FEATURES

■ WORK AND SURVIVE THE 3D NIGHT SHIFT
Complete cleaning and restocking duties while avoiding ■■■ as it roams the store. Light levels and footsteps affect how easily you are detected. Crouch in the darkness to conceal your presence, or risk making noise by sprinting away.

■ RETRO HANDHELD GAMES: SCORE OR CASH OUT
Play a variety of 2D minigames. Cash out once you reach the required score and secure your reward—or keep playing for a higher-tier prize while risking everything currently on the line. Rewards change each night, and failure costs you any pending reward.

■ BRING 2D REWARDS INTO THE 3D WORLD
Use batteries to restore flash charges, a radio to lure ■■■ away, an eyeball to reveal its form, an ofuda talisman to stop it, and a black high heel to temporarily prevent stamina drain. Knowing when to use each item may determine whether you survive.

■ A HANDHELD THAT BREAKS
Contact with ■■■ does not kill you immediately. Instead, damage accumulates on the handheld. The spreading cracks and glitches across its screen show how few chances you have left.

■ GOTHIC-NOIR ADVENTURE
Beyond each night shift lies a side-scrolling adventure through the past. Walk through old locations, investigate your surroundings, and relive events connected to ■■■ as you uncover the truth behind the curse linking past and present.

■ THREE VISUAL STYLES
A low-resolution 3D store with a retro aesthetic, handheld-style 2D screens, and an adventure segment resembling an old gothic horror film. Three distinct styles gradually converge on the same haunting.

Hide, run, and play.

Can you survive several nights on the job?
