About the Game

William is a young writer in search of his first literary success. He travels to a distant abbey, shrouded in a vow of silence. Among thick stone walls and unspoken secrets, William slowly immerses himself into the life of the abbey and its silent inhabitants.

What begins as a search for inspiration soon turns mysterious, leading William to uncover not just a story to tell, but a secret that was never meant to be discovered.

Scholar Adventure: Mystery of Silence is a classic 90s-style point & click adventure featuring dark, detailed pixel art, environmental puzzles, and a deep narrative with touches of black humor.

Explore the abbey, solve mysteries using the items you find along the way, and uncover the secrets hidden within its silent walls.

Mystery of Silence is the first game in the Scholar Adventure saga, created and developed solo by Ayose Trujillo, with music and sound design by Antonio Vozmediano.

With an approximate playtime of 2 to 3 hours, the game is a tribute to classic adventure games, where the experience lies in exploring, discovering, and solving puzzles as you put your logic to the test.

The game was developed using PowerQuest, by Powerhoof.
