the static speaks my name Reviews

A dark/sad/weird/funny first person exploration game. You play a man on his last night alive as he obsesses over a mysterious painting. More of a story game in that it emphasizes mood and character over gameplay. Takes ten minutes to play and has "next-gen" features like a shrimp tank.

Its short but its very well made! I have a weak spot for indie games, im honest here. I like most of them. The fact that someone can do this without the budget of a huge company gets my respect. When the game makes you wanne play again (like this one) i love it!

If you're into the dark and disturbing, you'll like this game. It's very short, but it's free and interesting. Take your time and explore the house, the game loses its charm when it is rushed through. I wish this game had more stories in it, it could be a great passtime :)

interesting. honestly I feel like this is the kind of game that you're gonna love or you're gonna hate. I haven't decided how i feel about it. It's very short, about ten minutes, and in that time, I was made to feel all sorts of things. On one hand, I was mostly disturbed. But on the other hand, I was also sort of fascinated. Poor shrimp, though. And poor man in the cage! I'm glad I had the option to free him. I can't say if i recommend the game or not, though. It honestly depends on the person. It's great for the kind of game that it is, but this kind of game isn't for everyone. lol. Whoever is interested in these kind of games should try it to see for themselves, though.

Game is really good. It build the mood properly, it makes you feel really weird and think a lot about the main character. The only flaw - simple graphics. You wish there would be some Perlin noise used with walls, doors, anything. But besides that - game is really great.

The games seems to depict a dark descent into a murder/suicide situation. A strange world where palm trees and twisted dark thoughts guide you to your inevitable outcome. This game with simple gameplay, and decent graphics is definitely worth the price of Admission... FREE. But be warned, it is a very short game, with a dark ending that may not suit everyone.

Do you enjoying asking yourself, "What the fuck did I just play?" Then you will enjoy this! I'm only recommending it because it's free. It's a freaky, weird, 15 minute experience that isn't so much good or bad as uncomfortable.

Alright so I've looked at a few reviews on here and I just cant see how you give this a bad recomendation. You get everything you expect, hell its even free. Very little play time at present but its evident that more options are going to be released, at the moment its around 10 mins of play time if you rush through https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CtUp-N1Dco here is a quick little video I did to show people whats involved and how deep this game can get. I fully think you should download this game and give it a try, its a small download and is a quick game.... You have nothing to lose

It is a pretty dark short free walking simulator about somebody committing suicide, suicide simulator if you wish. You know the weird side of YouTube? I think this fits in what should be called the weird side of Steam :D Due to the sensitive nature of the content I do not advise anybody in the critical stages of a severe depression to play this game, or even watch this video. I think it is better for those people to be directed to more pleasant (achievable) stuff, than killing themselves. (Spoiler alert! Obviously, altough I missed something in my playthrough) The Static Speaks My Name - Free Steam Game Playthrough https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVTwsq-qfH4 0:00 Starting the game, prologue, that damn alarm clock! 2:17 Use toilet. 2:49 Books. 5:48 Chat online with friends, use computer. 7:00 Clean the microwave. 10:40 Epilogue.

it makes you think if suicide... is really the answer i thought about doing it many times and when i played this it made me sad cause the guy you play as doesnt care anymore but he thinks about his family and friends he would hurt in the long run so really the message in this game is... is suicide really worth it
