On the plus side, this means that it shouldn’t be too difficult for you to complete if you’ve never played a game in this style…but it also means that veterans will see through all the puzzle logic pretty quickly. There are no inventory combination puzzles in The Silent Age, and the amount of stuff you can interact with is relatively thin.
With that in mind…The Silent Age’s gameplay and puzzle design are definitely more in-line with the older classics than anything modern like Telltale’s stuff.īut its small budget is also apparent. If a point-and-click game came out before the year 2000, I’ve probably played it. My favorite games in this style are Day of the Tentacle, Sam and Max Hit The Road, and King’s Quest V. Growing up, it was one of my favorite genres. I’ve played a lot of point-and-click adventure games. He accomplishes this quest by solving arbitrary puzzles and breaking things. Then he has a really weird day and ends up acquiring a time machine and a quest to solve the world from a terrible plague that kills everyone. He’s a janitor for a questionable big corporation, living out his life in the early 70’s. The Silent Age casts you as a dude named Joe. It’s out on Steam, the Windows Store, and various mobile platforms. You just click and go, and there’s also a small inventory. It’s a point and click adventure in a very traditional style, with a cross-shaped cursor like the old SCUMM games, but without any sort of verb system. The Silent Age is a 10 dollar game that’ll take you a few hours to complete, from small developer House on Fire.
