    Birthday of Midnight is a golf like Physics game. This is the fourth entry in Petite Games' series Published by Ratalaika. You play as Midnight, the Fairy, and it's your Birthday!

You play as Midnight, the Fairy, and it's your Birthday! But the story really has no relevance to the game. Using your joystick you aim and adjust the power of your swing, then launch Midnight off into the danger ridden darkness. Your objective is to play some really intricate Mini-Golf, with a square ball. Not to mention having to deal with timing, buzz saws, spikes, pitfalls, lazers, levers and other hazards. There are over 70 levels for you to figure out and conquer, some fairly straight forward, others take a bit of figuring out, and others take fairly precise timing. Unless Mini-Golf trhills you the gameplay can get a bit repetitious, leading to the game needing to be played in bursts for me. The game relies on a fairly solid gravity engine, and you can feel that any real mistakes were your own, not the fault of the layout, or design. The music is relaxing piano, and feels good with the environment most of the time. The environment itself is Dark and Spokky, just right to have come out a bit before Halloween. Creepy eyes and Jack-O-Lantern faces peer at you from the darkness. Overall Birthday of Midnight is a great time passer, the challenge it provides can be just as satisfying as frustrating.… Expand

    Overall i would give this game a 8.2/10, the game overall was very enjoyable and i found myself loving the designs of each of the levels, the increase in difficulty was fair and seemed possible all the way throughout, the achievement list was fantastic and seemed like an excellent sequel from the first game, love the characters and the hazards were unique to each stage, the only issue iOverall i would give this game a 8.2/10, the game overall was very enjoyable and i found myself loving the designs of each of the levels, the increase in difficulty was fair and seemed possible all the way throughout, the achievement list was fantastic and seemed like an excellent sequel from the first game, love the characters and the hazards were unique to each stage, the only issue i even found throughout my playthrough was a slight bug sometimes where the shooting line wouldn't be on the characters box instead if you had clicked the a button slightly before you should of it would go from where you pressed the button and not from where the character was which left me short on some jumps, it was a little frustrating at times but overall one of my favorites releases to date and look forward to the trilogy of it.… Expand

    If you want to kill some time or you feel like boosting your Gamerscore, then Birthday of Midnight on Xbox One is a cheap buy that will take up a couple hours of your time. It also comes with a very Halloweeny theme, and a soundtrack that fits the vibe, so it could be a good way to get into that spooky spirit.

    The combination of different ways to finish levels gives Birthday of Midnight a fair amount of replayability but I’m now starting to find this all little repetitive without a story to keep me immersed in the world. There are 70 plus levels to complete and this will definitely not hold my attention for that long. This is worth a play if you need a palette cleanser, however if you have GamePass you have many, more engaging choices.
