Daedalic Releases Silence – The Whispered World 2 “Making-of” Video – May 29, 2014

Silence is the story of Noah, who is about to lose his little sister Renie to the perils of war. He barely manages to follow her into the world of Silence. Even there, war ravages the land. There, he and Renie join a group of rebels led by a girl named Kyra. They are the last bastion of resistance against the terrible seekers, mysterious creatures washing over Silence in ever growing numbers.

Featuring completely new 3D visuals, Silence: The Whispered World 2 will offer many novelties to players. Noah’s and Renie’s quest will lead them to a visually impressive and emotionally investing adventure, with many mysteries to unravel around the world of Silence.

The game will also introduce a new character: Spot, the faithful caterpillar. Spot can do all kinds of useful things. You might say he’s the Swiss Army knife of caterpillars. For instance, he can…

~Become big by sucking in everything he can get close to his mouth. This includes air, which will inflate him into a ball that can bounce, be thrown, act as a cushion and enable him to fly around like a hot-air balloon (he’s very lightweight).
~Divide himself into a bunch of smaller versions
~Deflate and become totally flat
~Touch fire and become a torch that can set fire to other items and provide light in dark places
~Carry dangerous substances such as lava and use them against vegetation or to fix broken things such as stone statues
~Suck in water and be used to give plants a drink
~Suck in helium, become weightless, float around and become invisible
~Transport acids, which…well, you’ll have to discover that for yourself

Spot is also a faithful companion to Noah and Renie, and is able to comfort Renie during tough situations. Gee, I wish I had a caterpillar like that.

Silence: The Whispered World 2 promises to be a touching, visually impressive adventure, with many secrets concerning Noah, his sister Renie and the world of Silence waiting to be discovered.

Look for the game from Daedalic Entertainment to be released in 2016 for PC, Mac, Xbox One and PS4.

I've been with JA in one capacity or other since 2003. I'm currently website administrator. I'm also a digital artist (my avatar is one of my creations). I write reviews and articles, create graphics and basically help tend the site. It's work I enjoy very much. I love playing games of all kinds, but adventure and RPGs are my favorites (particularly scary/dark/unsettling ones). At the top of my list are The Cat Lady, The Longest Journey, Dreamfall, Still Life (first one only), Scratches and Culpa Innata. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool recluse and prefer the company of animals, hardware and ghosts to human beings (no offense). And no bio would be complete without my saying that I do NOT care for phones of ANY sort. Further, I think Dell computers are garbage and that Microsoft has become megalomaniacal.
