Description:
Same premise, starts with an attempted suicide, but it is a mistake to compare the two.
The Silence of Sleep has two main forms of gameplay: puzzles and "hiding" from Monsters.
The puzzles are the most rewarding, challenging but not too obscure that can't be solved with a bit of logic or exploration, the main issue I have with the game is when we enter the "darker" side and have to progress through levels hiding and running from Monsters prowling the hallways. What makes this so frustrating is that although what we have here is a 2D side scrolling game, a 3rd dimension is added, and although this can be a bonus in some situations, means that unless you are facing the correct way makes negotiating around cumbersome and unless you are precisely positioned and orientated can result in many infuriating deaths or missing out on useful items.
That having been said, there are some good ideas in here, some nice art and sound direction, and a reasonable enough story to get you playing to the end.
