- Players who dislike dark maze-like navigation may struggle with blind corners, traps, and limited light.
Our take on Silent World
The bounce point is the navigation system: a single match provides light while blind corners, traps, and roaming mutants complicate movement through the ruins. Players who need consistently visible routes may hit that wall when trying to find a safe way out.
What is Silent World?
Silent World takes place in a city devastated by nuclear destruction and left without light.
Playing alone, the survivor searches for other survivors while trying to escape the ruined city. Mutants roam the streets, and deadly traps are scattered through the modern ruins. A single match provides the light needed to move through the darkness and find a safe route. Progress involves moving silently to avoid the mutants and navigating blind corners within a maze-like environment. The setting focuses on isolation, fear, and cautious movement through a hostile post-apocalyptic world.
