Have you ever felt like your TV screen was staring back at you?

In Late Night TV, you don’t have to run away from monsters or solve tricky puzzles. You just… turn on the TV to the right channel every night. But then, that simplicity opens up a hidden nightmare.

This title is a short indie horror game that plays on the inner fears, loneliness and the feeling of being watched – something that is present in every small room at midnight.

Late Night TV Game Story

You play as a man living alone in an apartment. There is no noise, no one around — just the sofa, an old TV and mysterious notes: “Today is channel 0… Don’t forget.”

Every night, he returns to the remote. But what comes off the TV is no longer the usual program. Instead, there are fragments of images, piercing sounds, unidentified voices, etc.

The room changes every day. A new picture appears. A shadow passes through the frame. And the worst part is he can’t stop.

How to play Late Night TV

The gameplay is extremely minimalist, focusing on atmosphere:

  • Every day you wake up and walk towards the TV.
  • Follow the instructions on the piece of paper to turn on the right channel.
  • Observe the small changes in the room — that’s the core of the fear.
  • There’s no “exit” button from the loop ; there’s only one direction: continue.

This gameplay makes you ask yourself, “Am I controlling the character, or am I just a helpless spectator like him?”
