Daedalic Entertainment’s new adventure game, Silence, releases today. It tells a story of a young boy, Noah, and his younger sister Renie. When attempting to hide from an air raid, Renie is lost in Silence; a place between both life and death.
The world is not all that it seems however; towns have been attacked and destroyed by evil creatures and the only hope is a small band of rebels. The game is a sequel to Daedalic’s 2009 title The Whispered World – although no prior knowledge is needed to play Silence. The team hopes to tell a story of loss and anguish that is overcome by the siblings love for each other and those around them.
The developers also focused on creating likeable characters alongside a beautiful art-style that is a step up from the prequel’s 2D origins. You can see more in the trailer below and Silence is available on both GOG and Steam.
Ruaraidh - pronounced Roo-Ree - is a Scottish gamer with the name and games to prove it. He enjoys mostly everything, unless it involves exercise, and much prefers to run around inside a good, open-world RPG, being chased across the lands by a horde of monsters after his sweet loot. When he has made his escape, he will often return to the real world to continue playing anything with a good story - indie or otherwise.
