About the Game

You got kidnapped and ended up in a weird garden-looking area. When you explore, you quickly notice that there is a monster walking around.

The garden

This is the first level of Be Silent and the introduction to the story and the world, but fear not, there will be more coming your way in the future...

Manage your light

You are very lucky to still have your flashlight on you after the kidnapping, but the battery is slowly running out...

It seems like there have been people before you in this garden. You find many things just lying on the ground or hidden from the monster. The only remains you can find of them are bones and bloody hand prints on the walls. These might be helpful...

Be silent

The wooden planks are very old so just walking on them could make a sound. You have to sneak around very slowly if you want to stay unnoticed. When you do get noticed, you got to run. Sprint as fast to the nearest save room as possible, so the monster cannot reach you anymore. You can also hide in the bushes around the map to watch the monster unnoticed while its looking for you. Just don´t make the mistake of thinking you are safe there. The monster can easily catch you if it notices you.

Go faster!

There are five difficulty settings in the game right now. One harder than the other. The monster becomes faster and your stamina, health and batterie power are lower. When you do get through them all once, try to beat the monster faster than ever.

Lore?!?

There is also a story behind the monster and the kidnapper, so keep your eyes open for secrets and maybe even another human?

So go out there and escape the monster. But be silent...

Early Access

This early access version contains the first of the 3 planned levels. It contains part of the story and is the starting point for your adventure.
