    Very well written and beautifully presented, House on Fire's debut will absolutely thrill fans of darker, more mature science fiction.

    Rich in style and atmosphere, with a compelling plot and nice minimalist graphics, The Silent Age is a solid attempt at the point-and-click adventure genre.

    Despite simple, even primitive puzzles The Silent Age’s gameplay is frustratingly slow and main character’s speed of a bug crawling through tar does not help. [09/2015, p.65]

Every time you click on an item,Joe will have something funny to say. If you are looking for a good story to keep you entertained while you sit in a waiting room, or on a train, this game is certainly worth a buy.… Full Review »

    Short but good. Interesting story - though nothing revolutionary. Implements the time-travel mechanic very well. A joyful experience.
    Recommend.

    Truth be told, I had a bad feeling as soon as the game launched, but a few minutes in I changed my mind u-turn style. This simple point n' click is just pleasant to the senses and fun to play. It's immersive, fluid, intuitive. Everything is very clear, from the interactive objects that never require a hot spot key to the objectives, the short inventory and the use of time shift. The story is compelling and humane while not taking itself seriously. Progression is easy, making the story flow, but not to the point of feeling carried by the hand. The pace is just fine.

    This is minimalism done right.    … Full Review »
