I played this game on my android tablet when i was very small. Im back after all these years because its one of those games that never really left my mind,so i bought it and decided to actually play and finish it while understanding the whole picture and i must say it is one of the best stories i have ever seen in a game. The eerie atmosphere and sountrack are an easy 10/10. Highly recommend.
i used to play this game a lot when i was younger i didnt understand it at all aside from time travel but now in the current year reading the dialog i realize how interesting the story is and how mind bending the plot goes i very much would get this game if i were whoever is watching this (though i think you should get this on mobile to save a few bucks still costs money but not as much im pretty sure)
Straightforward point and click game, nice mood. You can turn off voice acting, but there are not any other options that I found. I would have loved a button to run instead of constantly double clicking. I finished in under 3.5 hours with 100% achievements. It's easy to go back and replay levels if you miss anything, and there aren't any fail states which was nice. Ran perfectly on Bazzite Linux.
The Silent Age is one of the best indie point and clicks out there and it doesn’t even try that hard to prove it. No bloated nonsense, no 200 IQ puzzles to stroke your ego, just clean design, a time travel gimmick that actually works, and an atmosphere so quiet and lonely it feels like the world forgot you exist. Story sneaks up on you and suddenly you’re invested without realizing when it happened. And then it just ends. Like “alright, get out.” Leaves you there wanting more like a scam… but a good one. Doesn’t matter though, it hits way harder than most games twice its size. 9.5/10, short but hits like a truck
