✦ AI summary

Players are divided on this RPG Maker title. While some appreciate it as an enjoyable game, others criticize it as a low-effort asset flip with clichéd anime visual novel storytelling and creepy themes centered on high school characters. Common complaints include poor execution of the horror elements, questionable creative direction, and confusion over the ending structure, though at least one player found enough merit to recommend it despite reservations.

RPG Maker strikes again! "Midnight Syndrome" is one of hundreds of low effort retro-pixel RPG Maker asset/construction kit flips spamming the Steam catalog, made with the RPG Maker video game construction kit... in their own words, "Our easy to use tools are simple enough for a child." Like all RPG Maker "games", this is essentially a bunch of low quality/canned assets from RPG Maker coupled with a cringeworthy high school anime club fan fiction. Notably, the "developer" couldn't work out how to use RPG Maker to make a JRPG (the only thing it can do, and it's terrible at it). Instead, we have a godawfully bad horror adventure visual novel about the "developers" favourite subject, his imaginary girlfriends, who are also high school students. Creepy and cringey at the same time. There's a background high-school horror plot for the e-book, and you need to move around a bit in RPG Maker to get to the next passage of text that's so cringey and badly written it might make you throw up a bit. As with all RPG Maker games, the poor quality engine displays badly in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics tweaking options, making this unacceptable for any dedicated …
