01The story

Night Fare is a short first-person horror experience set in 90s Greece. You play most of it from behind the eyes of someone who just wanted to get home from the club. That's it. That's the setup.

The whole thing runs about 5–10 minutes per ending, so it's built for one sitting, or for a stream. There are a few endings. The original was inspired by a true story, and I'll be honest — that's half of why it still gets under people's skin.

Heads up before you click: the installer is a normal setup wizard — just click through and it puts the game in a folder for you. Some antivirus tools grumble at unknown indie installers; that's SmartScreen being cautious, not the file. Content warning: flashing lights and stalking themes.

06Questions people actually ask

Is it really free? What's the catch?

Really free. The Director's Cut is a thank-you to everyone who played the original. No launcher, no account, no newsletter. Click, download, play.

How long is it?

5–10 minutes per run. There are multiple endings, so a "full clear" is closer to half an hour if you go looking for them.

Can I stream / make videos of it?

Please do — that's honestly how most people found the game. Monetization is fine. If you drop your VOD link in my inbox I feature my favorites on the page.

Why an installer and not a single exe?

The Director's Cut ships with uncompressed audio, so it's a bit chunky. The setup wizard just unpacks it to one folder — no registry junk, and deleting that folder removes it completely.

Is this the same game as v1.2?

Same game, plus the bonus ending, the extended ride, and the audio/lighting pass. Your old saves carry over if you drop them in the same spot.
