This game is more or less a follow-up to a game released and forgotten many years ago, Whispered World and it is yet another trademark Daedalic Entertainment point and click adventure game. Graphics are beautiful to look at and soundtrack is pretty solid, what is really huge turn off about this game and what makes it average are the puzzles. They are way too simple and almost solved by itself, almost like they aimed with this game only at little children or extreme beginners to the genre. Overall it's not a bad game, but difficulty kills it. Pick it up on sale, then it will be completely worth it, for full price it doesn't offer that much content or length to justify it.

This game could've easily stayed into obscurity, but rather then letting it become a literal act of silence, Daedalic took what little they had with the original, and multiplied it by ten, bringing this dead franchise back with more life than ever. The game gives the past characters a grand-reopening without alienating anyone that may not have ever seen them until now. It is ideal that you play the original Whispered World first to fully understand the characters and setting (just make sure to turn off the dialogue and leave only subtitles.) The new characters they create are compelling, but sadly, we don't get to spend as much time with them as we would like. We interact with them, start to learn more about them, but toward the climax, we just leave them. Their story arcs remain unfinished, and we never see or hear from them again, not even if you chose a certain ending. The gameplay is short, but simple, taking roughly 4-6 hours to finish. The puzzles are also quite simple, not leaving the player to get stumped on a mini game to progress through the story. The graphics are dazzling, the characters are charming and complex, and, by the end, you will be wishing that Daedalic sold Spot plush toys in the states. Great experience if you've never played the first one; amazing experience if you have played the first one.

Silence is truly a work of art. It's an exquisitely crafted game combining amazing audio and visuals, a fascinating cinematic story, and point and click adventure gameplay. All in all, the game is done extremely well, and worth playing, but it's also expensive. I fully expect that the hefty price tag will make many people want to wait for a discount.

A cinematic masterpiece. While 'Silence' leaves something to be desired in the gameplay, story, and character aspects, it still holds a lot of heart and a lot of beauty. Yes, it is quite short, but it functions incredibly well as an interactive narrative and makes for an enticing sequel to 'The Whispered World.' While not a classic point-and-click, 'Silence' is a wonderful game and I wholeheartedly recommend it to both long-time Daedalic fans, and genre newcomers seeking a phenomenal visual experience.

This game is very short and simple yet fun to play with. At least its story is not as bad as some other games. This game can be short and simple behind its beautiful visuals hides a very nice, yet sad, story. A story that is worth knowing. Definitely recommended
