VideoGamerAlice BellMay 20187/10The Thin Silence has a satisfying, creative approach to puzzle solving, alongside a sad story told in equally sad snippets. Though you can reset puzzles and try again as often as you need, you might sometimes still be left at a loss.

GameOctaneJason GerminoMay 2018The Thin Silence is a dark story which will intrigue you, pull you in, rough up some emotions, and spit you back out...in a good way. Though it may not be for everyone, gamers that enjoy stories over action should enjoy The Thin Silence.
