    Following the remarkable success of the last game that was published by Daealic Entertainment, the company did it again, they invented a fantastic adventure game, which fascinates and makes you fall in love in equal parts.

    Silence tries to modernize the point-and-click adventures thanks to a more interactive control system and a simplification of the puzzles, that makes them well integrated to the narrative.

    With Silence Daedalic delivers a fascinating and visually stunning sequel to The Whispered World, but console gamers who didn't play the first game on PC will feel a bit lost, and the interface isn't too optimized for controller use too.

    Despite its confusing nature, it’s a lot of fun and the story is definitely one of the better ones I’ve come across recently. The game’s art style is gorgeous and that was one of the reasons I was captivated by it in the first place. Just be sure you’re one with patience because some of the puzzles become a chore to get through.

    Those who are looking for a charming, puzzle-based narrative could definitely do a lot worse than Silence. Well-worth playing for its visuals alone, it’s something that will likely satiate fans of the classic genre. That said, it’s unfortunately overpriced, bearing a $29.99 US asking price that is arguably ten or fifteen dollars too high.

    All things considered, it's a decent point-and-click title although the asking price seems way off the mark for a game that's only five hours long, which doesn't offer enough time to flesh out the story and characters.

    It's flawed and frustrating at times, but worth seeing through to the end. [Jan 2017, p.90]

    Combine technical faults, repetitive gameplay, and characters so idiotic and unlikable you’d wish the game’s enemies would rip their spines out, and you’ve got a title that is a chore to play through.

    Oh merde, je croyais qu'ils avaient tous disparu... ces jeux d'aventure "pointe et clique" et toute cette clique de pseudo-jeux à clics sur unOh merde, je croyais qu'ils avaient tous disparu... ces jeux d'aventure "pointe et clique" et toute cette clique de pseudo-jeux à clics sur un machin avec un bidule pour le con-biner à un truc... afin de déclencher le prochain dialogue idiot et de faire avancer le schmilblick de mes deux.

    Décors précalculés, caméras fixes, déplacements à deux à l'heure, curseurs oeil et main, rien n'a changé en tout cas, si ce n'est la résolution plus élevée. Ici, on a un monde bien niais avec des personnages vilains, signes évidents d'une direction artistique au niveau du caniveau. C'est laid, partout où l'on regarde et d'un mauvais goût flagrant.

    Alors, chut, nous balayons cette saleté d'étron indé, nous le ramassons avec la ramassette et nous balançons le tout à la fosse commune de ces conneries de "jeux" (?) stupides et ringards !    … Full Review »
