Accompany Lucy and her friends in this grim, beautifully hand-drawn adventure game by the creators of Little Briar Rose, in collaboration with studio Luna2.

Lucy is afraid of the forest, just like any other child: every night, the echoing roars rob her of her sleep. Not even her dreams are a safe place where she could play.

People disappearing is nothing uncommon in the village, but this time, Lucy is old enough to investigate on her own. Or so she thinks.

  • Explore Silentown in search of hints, but beware: do not enter the forest.
  • A unique, unsettling 2D art style fitting for a mysterious, dark tale.
  • Music plays a crucial role, and learning how to sing will help Lucy in times of need.
  • Combine items to obtain widely unexpected results!
  • Many quirky characters (and animals!) to interact with. Be nice to them before they disappear.
  • Play minigames with the other children of the village!
  • A very mean cat, programmed to mess with Lucy at any given chance.
  • Curious, original puzzles: use a leash and a pair of shears to break in your mother’s best friend’s house, all in order to steal… a flower?!

✦ AI summary

Children of Silentown: Prologue is a short but atmospheric introduction that impresses players with its moody art style, captivating music, and engaging narrative that leaves them wanting more. The point-and-click gameplay is straightforward with light puzzle-solving, which some find refreshingly accessible while others note the lack of challenge compared to what the full game promises. Players generally feel it succeeds as a prologue worth experiencing and are interested enough to wishlist the main game.

It's a really short "game" that feels more like a demo, but the music and graphics are nice. It has a comfy feel to it, but there's not much challenge. It looks like the main game has more puzzle elements and things, whereas with this one everything is sort of handed to you. I didn't mine playing through it, though.

Игра 'Children of Silentown: Prologue' – это мрачное, но очаровательное вступление в мир, где дети живут в страхе перед чудовищами леса. Графика в стиле визуальной новеллы с элементами point-and-click отлично передает атмосферу таинственности и опасности. Главная героиня, Люси, быстро вызывает симпатию, и ее страхи ощущаются вполне реальными. Геймплей прост, но увлекателен – собираем предметы, решаем головоломки и общаемся с другими жителями деревни. Музыкальное сопровождение прекрасно дополняет гнетущее ощущение, а звуковые эффекты добавляют напряжения. Пролог отлично справляется со своей задачей: заинтересовывает игрока и оставляет после себя множество вопросов. Хочется узнать, что же скрывается в лесу, откуда берутся монстры и почему Silentown такая мрачная. Единственный минус – небольшая продолжительность. Но это лишь усиливает желание сыграть в полную версию. Отличное начало потенциально захватывающей истории.
