HG: The Whispered World hit PC back in 2009 and had a rather interesting story that contained a surprising twist ending. It was one of Daedalic Entertainment’s first major games that put them on the map as a formidable adventure game developer, so why they haven’t created a sequel yet is beyond me. That is looking to change with Silence – Whispered World 2, a follow up that takes place years after the events of the first game, putting you in a grim wartime setting that’s transitioned to a fantasy world. We were able to get a sneak peek of the upcoming sequel that showcases some truly gorgeous visuals and a compelling story to boot.
With completely new 3D visuals, Silence: The Whispered World 2 takes players back to Silence, a world made of dreams.
Rob Pitt writes: A few years ago I bought a game on the PlayStation 4, a game which looked absolutely stunning, like an interactive watercolour, from a rare genre at the time, a full point-and-click adventure game on modern consoles. Sure, in recent years we’ve seen the genre return, with more games coming out every year, but around the time of this game’s launch, the market was lacking these types of games.
The game was Silence, also known as The Whispered World 2. A few weeks ago, Silence made it’s way over to the latest platform which is embracing the point-and-click format more than any other, the Nintendo Switch.
Silence: The Whispered World 2 is a sequel to Daedalic Entertainment’s The Whispered World, and the recent Switch Release is an okay game at best. - Tim @CD
