Dead of Night: Supermarket (v1.1.0)

A fluorescent supermarket at closing time becomes an unexpectedly hostile place when every aisle feels too quiet and every customer seems slightly wrong. Dead of Night: Supermarket is a compact first-person horror adventure built around the miserable routine of a student forced to work the night shift because there are few better options. Its premise taps into a familiar real-world dread—being alone at a dead-end job after dark—then steadily twists that discomfort into paranoia. The mood is grounded rather than action-heavy, using mundane retail spaces, awkward encounters, and a lurking threat to make ordinary work feel unsafe.

Players move through the store from a first-person perspective, dealing with the demands and interruptions that define a late-night shift while paying close attention to the people around them. Strange shoppers and scammers create uneasy social encounters, but the real tension comes from the sense that something far worse is hiding somewhere among the shelves. Expect a focused, story-led experience instead of a long campaign filled with elaborate systems, character builds, or combat mastery. The full run generally lasts between thirty minutes and an hour, making it well suited to a single evening session or as a sharp palate cleanser between larger horror games.

What gives the game its bite is the setting: supermarkets are normally bright, public, and routine-driven, yet the night shift strips away all of that safety. Dead of Night: Supermarket relies on anticipation and atmosphere more than spectacle, turning familiar aisles, stockrooms, and customer interactions into potential sources of danger. Its brief format means the scares and story beats do not have much room to overstay their welcome, although players looking for deep replay value or a sprawling mystery may find it slight. Fans of small-scale indie horror in the vein of convenience-store nightmares and first-person walking horrors should appreciate its direct, uncomfortable approach, while newcomers can enjoy it without committing to a lengthy campaign.
