Silent Footsteps Reviews

Great walking sim mystery game with interesting plot.

Great Game But when I got to the end it just clouded over my scene and stopped Iand I did not even get to finish , Oh well

nice carol reed-offspring game, from the lady who has appeared on some of those. a bit shorter in length compared to an average CR game but no less fun with good graphics (reminiscent of the first few CR games), good puzzles, a fun object finding mini-game (the daz3 characters i'm too familiar with from other kinds of games made me laugh), great music tracks and of course beautiful sceneries and inevitably less beautiful ones like the abandoned ironworks we know from a CR game. all in all it has been a very pleasant few hourse i've spent with silent footsteps. i wish she had made more games like this but probably life got in the way and i'll prefer not to hold my breath after 7 years.

pros + an intriguing story. your friend deceased under suspicious circumstances and you start to follow her leads which were left behind and try to solve what actually happened to her + gorgeous environments are presented with colorful first-person photographic stills from Sweden. the developer also uses a Van Gogh style filter on these still photographs and it looks so cool + easy and fun to solve puzzles. you can also make multiple combinations in your inventory and make new items + helpful hint system + pressing the spacebar shows all hotspots + there is a map for fast travel + ok voice acting + relaxing instrumental background musics + it is obviously inspired by the Carole Reed series + there is a tutorial + there are steam achievements cons - game is short - navigation can be disorienting. I'm constantly confused about which way I should go. - i think the game is overpriced considering it's short length and very indie nature. - the end was abrupt and rushed. everything about the story and characters isn’t completely explained - no cards Overall, this is a decent and enjoyable Carole Reed spin-off. If you like Carole Reed games, you're going to enjoy this game as well.
