What? Someone is calling my name from the dark and spooky forest? Um sorry suddenly I can't hear.

Children of Silentown is a new dark adventure game from Elf Games and Luna2 Studio. Players follow Lucy, a girl whose village is set deep in a forest populated with monsters. It’s the kind of place where people disappear and it’s nothing more than commonplace. However, Lucy believes she is old enough to start investigating the disappearances and sets off.

Afraid of the forest and what lurks in it, the echoing roars of monsters haunt Lucy’s dreams. Living with a few simple rules, including not wandering to the forest unless absolutely needed, not leaving at night, and keeping your voice down, Lucy lived contently. Playing with her friends, doing chores, and learning to sing with her Mom.

Until her Mom disappears. Now it’s time for a little rebelling.

Work with Lucy and her friends to find out what exactly is haunting Silentown.  Filled with quirky characters – including a cat determined to bully you – and plenty of minigames to play with friends before they disappear.

Children of Silentown is a collaboration between Elf Games and Luna2. What was once a short movie, and intrigued by the unique and unsettling 2D art style, Elf Games proposed to develop the concept into a video game.

 

Children of Silentown is now available on Nintendo Switch and for PC on Steam.
