MY REVIEW
Intrigued by the trailer, Silence was a fun
game to play. The story line was clear and exciting in
the short film; however, it is not as clear while playing the game. The
introduction is very long and took a while for me to start playing with no way
of speeding it up. Hopefully, as the game updates this is an option that can be added in the future.
It is a very “click” based game (it requires you to select
items very often) however, there is a glitch that does not always allow you to
click it or it makes it very difficult to do so. Again, I received this game before it came out and was available for purchase, so I'm hoping with an update that can be worked out so that it's easier for you to click for an easier and smoother game play.
It started out a bit slow and I was curious to
where it was going, but the more I played the more fun I had, it was a very interesting game and
enjoyable once you get past the first little bit. It is filled with lots of quests and
challenges and is very unique. I did enjoy it and would love to play it again, especially once the updates roll in for the small glitches in the game.
The game tells an emotionally gripping story, imaginative puzzles, beautiful visuals blending 2D and
3D art design, compelling characters and hours of fully voiced dialogue, Silence is part sequel, part spin-off of the classic adventure The Whispered World, which was also developed and published by Daedalic Entertainment.
Disclosure: All opinions are my own. I received Silence on Nintendo Switch at no cost for the purpose of this review. No other compensation was received.
