THE SILENT AGE GAMEPLAY PART 1 PC

Great music, great visuals & a great interface/controls means any iOS gamer should look at picking this up.

The flipping between time periods is great with the future being a really interesting proposition. This is a great modern point & click that gets so much right & adds some interesting ideas. I also think the game should have ended slightly earlier, it would have been a more ‘downer’ of an ending but it would have felt more…right then the one we do get. Sometimes more is required but the logic is easy to work out & you never get that feeling of satisfaction that should come from completing a tricky puzzle.

The music though is outstanding with some of the most oppressive & eerie sounds I’ve heard in a game to date. I like the graphics & the interface is top-notch. It has a retro feel about it while appearing quite detailed. What really sells it as well though is the look & music. No delay, no loading screen just a quick flash & you’re in the different time period.

The device Joe holds can transport Joe through the time periods instantly changing a dusty corridor with no clear exit into a devastated ruin with holes to escape through.
