About Night Hike
Night Hike is a curious journey through a dark wilderness loop where the choices you make determine if you'll find a way out. Choose which trails to follow, interact with the locals and break through the mysteries hidden among these strange trails.
Choose Your Path
With a fork at every turn and hidden trails to unlock, no two hikes will unfold the same way. You create the trail and decide when to venture forth or turn back. The hike resets when you run out of steps.
You Are Not Alone
Nightfall reveals supernatural faces in the shadows, but are they friend or foe? Your interactions shape the journey as much as the trails you choose.
Spin Fate in Your Favor
When obstacles present themselves, a spin of the needle determines success or failure. Power your compass to improve your chances of ending the hike.
