Average height, average weight, average IQ. Our protagonist is Joe in more than just name. It’s been like this for years, going from one soul-devouring job to the next. Working a dead-end attendant job making sure the building is as spotless as the suits walking the halls. All the winds of change are doing here is blowing leaves all over Joe’s newly-swept floor. Somewhere in the big city, in a tall, faceless government building someone left a window open. The winds of change are certainly blowing over the country. Environmentalists, the female liberties movement, and on the dance floors an entirely different kind of movement is overtaking the underground clubs.
Meanwhile the Cold War is more than lukewarm and a real one is going on overseas. Flipflops, English leather and bandanas are the height of fashion. Sit back, plug in your headphones, and enjoy the adventure.īackground Story. With an interface specifically designed for touch devices, you'll flow through the story without hiccups and frustrations. The Silent Age is an atmospheric point-and-click adventure game with stylized visuals and an eerie soundtrack that will keep you in suspense as you solve mind-bending puzzles. Travel through time between the iconic 70's and a desolate present day haunted by silence. The Silent Age takes you on an adventurous journey into a dystopian future where mankind has gone extinct! This actually happened to me.Episode Two now available, the final chapter in this award winning adventure. Also, you know the sound effects in a game are good when you hear noises outside your window and your first thought is that you left the game on by accident. I do recommend taking the game’s advice to use headphones. The music, just as in episode one, is haunting, perfectly suitable to the story. Also, you can still make Joe run if you find his walking pace a bit too slow. It only began to bother me on my second or third time through the game. It did feel like there might be a bit more backtracking in this episode than in the first, but no area is so big that this becomes an issue. This is top-quality point-and-click adventuring that makes the wait worthwhile (assuming you were waiting long for it). Perhaps most importantly of all, the story comes to a really satisfying conclusion that I didn’t see coming. The game is very story-driven, and every detail was well thought out. The time-traveling aspect is still a major part of the game, and now you get to find out the full story behind it. It might not be as long as most players were hoping for, but if you value quality over quantity, you shouldn’t be disappointed. While you do revisit some areas from Episode One, none of the chapters or puzzles feel rehashed, so you’re getting a good amount of entertainment for your money. Need I say more? If you have played episode one, please read on if you want a small taste of what episode two has to offer, and whether it’s worth your money.Įpisode One was five chapters long, and Episode Two is the same length, but each chapter does feel more complex and should probably take you longer to complete than the first episode. Luckily, I didn’t have to wait almost two years for Episode Two, as most people did.įirst of all, if you haven’t played the first episode, you should stop reading and go do that right now. I don’t know why it took me so long to finally jump in, but I knew within five minutes of playing (basically, after meeting Joe’s boss) that it would be a special game. I played Episode One only a few days ago. I’ll admit right now that I was really late to the party with the Silent Age.
