Silence: The Whispered World 2 is the sequel to The Whispered World, and is also a point-and-click adventure game. It was developed by Daedalic Entertainment.[1]

The release

It came out on November 15, 2016. It follows a young girl, Renie, who is lost in a magical realm. Her older brother Noah then sets out to rescue her.[2] It came out for PS4 and PC and Xbox One, and also Mac and Linux.[3]

Reception

It received 75/100 as a score on metacritic, out of 29 critics.[4]

Gamespot said it was a “quiet puzzler,” and liked it. It got 7 out of 10 from Gamespot, which really praised the hand-painted backdrops and interactivity. The review did criticize that there were not many challenging puzzles, and that some neat characters were removed from the game too quickly.[5] Kotaku also thought it was pretty and had nice characters. It also thought the puzzles were more streamlined and intuitive than the one before.[6]
