What The Silence is

The Silence was released in 2024. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

You are in a labyrinth of silent corridors and abandoned hospital rooms where darkness envelops every corner. The echo of your footsteps echoes through the empty hallways as you frantically search for a way out. Your heartbeat becomes the only beat in the oppressive silence. In this intense but short horror game you will constantly feel uneasy and threatened. The darkness is omnipresent, the corridors are labyrinthine, and every room holds new horrors. The echo of your footsteps and the creature scratching on the cold ground are the only sounds that break the oppressive silence. Your heartbeat becomes the only beat that tells you that you are still alive - at least for now.
