What is Not Tonight?

Not Tonight is a single-player management game set in an alternate Britain where a far-right government has exiled people of European heritage. As one of those displaced residents, you take bouncer jobs through an app, check IDs and guest lists under time pressure at different venues, and upgrade your apartment and equipment.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy timed document checks and spotting inconsistencies
  • +you want a political story set in alternate Britain
  • +you like pixel art and venue-specific music

Not for you if...

  • −you prefer untimed decisions over fast guest screening
  • −you want a story without political oppression

What players say

84% of 2,367 reviews are positive · 50% of 16 in the last 30 days

Players praise the document-checking gameplay, pixel art, and soundtrack, but many say the shifts grow repetitive. Some report losing progress because of save problems or being penalized for ID checks they believe were correct.
