Lastly, there’s this one passenger that’s recently undergone some form of brain surgery to merge his brain with a computer chip that allowed him to not only obtain information on a bystander you both drove past, but also hack an ATM machine that allowed him to pay his fare. Not only does is it give you a destination, it leaves a decent tip for you as well. You also get a passenger that is a black cat that has seemingly run away from home.
This is the sort of death sequence I’d expect out of a Final Destination movie, so seeing something like that pop up here was kind of jarring and morbidly ridiculous. Some stories/characters are memorable, just a name a few: there’s one passenger who tells a story about how he was so startled by a flock of birds in his backyard that he ran back inside and slammed the sliding door shut, not realizing that his family’s dog was sticking it’s neck out through the open door and was effectively decapitated. Passengers really seem to open up to you, talking about their relationship issues, their life’s stories and various personal experiences, among others. The interactions and storytelling from various cab patrons is where Night Call gets kind of interesting.
NIGHT CALL TRUEACHIEVEMENTS DRIVER
I rather enjoyed the duality that Night Call presents here: working a fairly mundane and unspectacular job as a cab driver in contrast to the information-heavy, problem-solving and no doubt stressful job as a private investigator where it’s your ass on the line if you fuck this up. When your shift is over, you go back to your apartment to parse through information and clues pertaining to the case. Each case’s core gameplay loop is the same: ferrying passengers to their destinations all across Paris, listen to their stories, get paid, dig up clues for your case and hopefully accuse the right suspect. There are three cases to choose from and the investigation for each of them last 7 nights: “The Judge”, “The Sandman” and “The Angel of Death”. At this point, it’s clear the cops seem more interested in a having a fall guy rather than catching the actual murderer. Because of Houssine’s shady and criminal past, Busset tells Houssine that he’ll go jail for the crime if he refuses to work with her. Not long after that a cop by the name of Busset enters your cab and effectively blackmails you into digging up clues in regards to her various suspects in the murder case. After serving up a tutorial on the game’s mechanics, you start the game. You awake from your coma and you’re eventually back on the job.
NIGHT CALL TRUEACHIEVEMENTS SERIAL
You’re carrying out your nightly routine when a serial killer murders your passenger and puts Houssine in a coma for a month. Throughout the game, you learn that Houssine has been haunted by a murky past and a criminal record who has been afforded a second chance at life. Night Call is a narrative-centric, investigative adventure game that sees you play as Houssine, a Parisian cab driver who works the night shift.
