Is Midnight Valet hard to control?

The basics are easy: accelerate and steer. The skill is in braking and cornering, which takes a few races to get a feel for. Most games are forgiving early on.

Do I need a keyboard?

On desktop a keyboard is the usual way to play, though some games support the mouse. On phones and tablets, touch controls are provided.

How long is one race?

Typically two to four minutes, depending on the number of laps. A session of a few races fits easily into a short break.

The guide

Overview

Midnight Valet is a 3D valet parking simulator. Your night shift at the citys busiest club runs from 22:00 to 04:00. Take the keys from arriving guests, park their cars in the lot, hang the keys on the key board, then find the right key and bring each car back to the door when the guest comes out. Regular guests wait patiently. Hasty guests carry a countdown timer. Tipsy guests say the wrong key number, so find their car by its colour. The mafia boss wants his black-gold sports car in the VIP spot only, and scratches bring threats.

What it's like to play

Three, two, one, and the pack moves off together. Racing games compress a lot into a short time: starts, overtakes, corners you take too fast, the straight where you finally pull ahead. Each race is a small, complete story. Between races there is often a garage or upgrade screen, and then you are back on the grid. A session of five or six races goes by quickly.

How to play

1Hold accelerate from the start and steer with the arrow keys or by tilting; let the car settle before the first corner.
2Lift off or tap the brake going into tight turns, then accelerate from the apex outward.
3Look ahead to the next corner rather than at your car; it gives you time to set up the line.
4Try different vehicles if the game offers them. Handling varies more than top speed does.

Why it's worth a go

A race in Midnight Valet takes about as long as a song, and it is free to run in your browser with nothing to download. That makes it good for a quick break, and the steady improvement in your lap times gives the breaks a shape they would not otherwise have.

Who it's for

Suits players of most ages who like speed. Younger children can steer and enjoy it; older players will care about lap times and positions. Works well for anyone who wants a short, contained challenge.
