There appears to be a fascination with golf going on at the minute, seeing realistic offerings like PGA Tour 2K21 pop up alongside the more obscure takes such as Golf Zero. The latest release from Ratalaika Games, Birthday of Midnight, is yet another title; this time with physics inspired by golf and it’s available right now on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Will you be teeing off in this one?
Developed by Petite Games, Birthday of Midnight is the second title to launch on consoles and follows in the footsteps of Midnight Deluxe. They’ll be hoping this new instalment fares a bit better than its predecessor. The small square fairy, known as Midnight, returns for more golf-ish action which sees our protagonist being flinged about. Ultimately, the idea is to launch Midnight across levels in order to land within a little safe zone that essentially represents a hole – that’s if we’re to make comparisons with golf.
There’ll be over 70 engaging levels to test your skills at getting a hole in one, but they will become increasingly difficult. Poor Midnight must deal with all manner of dangerous obstacles along the way, including spikes, explosives, circular saws, and more. It certainly won’t be easy to complete each level and keep the number of ‘strokes’ at a respectable amount.
If you think you have what it takes to overcome the challenging physics-based action in Birthday of Midnight, just swing over to the Xbox Store and pay the required fee of £4.99 – and for the next two weeks it’ll be even cheaper at £3.99. It’s also available on the PS Store today and can be bought from the Nintendo eShop on 2nd October. Whether you pick it up or not, feel free to share your thoughts about Birthday of Midnight and its golf-like concept via the comments section below.
