Press release:
September 30th, Łódź, Poland.
The tiny Poland-based indie games studio Afterburn are today very happy and exccited to announce that their turn-based strategy/puzzle game “After Midnight” is coming to PC and MAC on October 13th, 2020.

Working as a resident in a hospital is no easy task. Demanding patients, long night shifts, sleep deprivation, stress, pressure, and being forced to deal with both your superiors’ and parents’ expectations. But you were prepared for all that when you chose this career.

What you didn’t expect, however, was that you’d be fighting viruses in a very literal way…

You can also download the free demo of the game, including the first five chapters, from itch.io (https://afterburn.itch.io/after-midnight).

ABOUT AFTER MIDNIGHT

After Midnight is a game that mixes turn-based strategy with puzzle gameplay and a plot that’s explained in the style of a visual novel. The gamer takes on the role of medical professionals such as a doctor, a nurse, and a paramedic, and uses their passive and active combat skills to fight mutated viruses that invaded the hospital. Strategic thinking, planning your actions, and teamwork are the keys to success.

Depending on the character chosen during the combat turn, the player can heal their teammates, attack the opponents in a direct fight, or even use area attacks from a distance – all to defeat diversified enemies that multiply and get stronger with every turn.
