Point-and-click, Puzzle, Adventure, Indie
A cinematic thriller told through the classic perspective of point & click adventure games. The Night is Grey is about modern storytelling fused together with hand-drawn animated characters, fully animated backgrounds and an original studio recorded music score.

Thumb CultureNov 20244/5 starsUltimately, The Night Is Grey is an exploration of Graham and his past with allusions to cruelty, death and other triggering topics. The tone is set throughout the game and is definitely not suitable to younger audiences. That being said, it is a really well written story that is presented in a careful yet enticing way. When I found out that this was Whalestork’s first game I was shocked. There are many newly released games from established developers that have their flaws yet Whalestork have hit a home run on their first chance to bat. The story doesn’t give you a second to catch your breath with constant twists yet isn’t overbearing in its delivery. It’s an addition to my Steam library that I’m very grateful to have. As such, it is a very easy decision to give The Night Is Grey the Thumb Culture Gold Award. I’m very excited to see what this team does next!
