About
Set in 1970s southern France, you play a rookie private eye tasked to dig out the secrets of a stubborn old man. Think on your feet while you follow your leads : ask questions to witnesses, detect their lies, hypothesize why and finally confront the silent ones running from their past.
You are entrusted with the peculiar case of Victor Dousvalon. This old history professor is known for shrouding his past life in secrecy, even from his own daughter Catherine. But an apparently harmless accident motivates him to hire you to help Catherine trace back the steps of his life.
Why can't he simply tell her his own story?
Why does Catherine, who has been so distant with her father these past years, suddenly want to know about him?
Your first case will decidedly be a delicate one...
Get engrossed in the handy work of a detective : search through family papers, ask personal questions, call at inopportune times, and be generally nosy.
No watching characters think for you, this is your time to prove your deductive powers. Choose leads, follow them to the end or stop when you think you’ve got the right idea. But you'll need to be convincing to push the silent ones to talk!
Piece together the lives, the choices, and the tragedies people are running from and walk a mile in their shoes.
Discover History, not from a bird’s eye view, but from the ground, where folks have to continue living and coping, each in their own unique way.

Excited to start playing Chronique des Silencieux! I've heard good things about this game. So far, a unique detective game with a cool art style and a rich story. I'm liking the game's puzzle solving. I'm looking forward to diving into the game world more.
Amazing! Great game play, addictive scenario and historical background. Love it. That's a gem.
J'aime bien jouer à ce jeu, l'intrigue, les dessins et la musique sont très bien faits. Bravo pour cette nouveauté originale.
Very interesting game for those that enjoy a whodunnit. The graphics and animations are extremely enjoyable. The mechanics when making hypothesis and accusations are unique and rewarding.
You’d better have a good memory if you don’t want to spend hours reading through long blocks of text over and over again in Chronique des Silencieux, searching for that one piece of information that just might connect to or contradict another. The good news is that it’s all presented in a beautiful, evocative period setting with interesting characters, providing enough motivation to keep digging into their backgrounds. Sadly, the occasional graphical glitch, faulty translation and overly demanding deduction requirements make the gameplay experience much harder than it should be. Pierre Feuille Studio has the right idea and introduces a great concept for detective games, but they should have tested and polished it up further before releasing. To their credit, during my 14-hour playthrough they released several updates that gradually improved certain issues, making the third part of the game smoother than the first two. It still wasn’t perfect, but it’s moving in the right direction, so here’s hoping it will get there so more people can enjoy the intriguing elements lurking beneath the surface.

This debut game does so much incredible work and features so many aspects, from its writing to its art to its facial animations to its dedication to making the player feel like a real detective, and it nails so many of these aspects, truly delivering a special experience for anyone with a love for point-and-click adventure games. However, to actually get through the title, a player is going to have to deal with several major issues that make Chronique des Silencieux kind of a pain to play. I genuinely loved my time with this gem and I dearly wish I could just point to some of my favourite characters and the beautiful art style and beg everyone to give it a shot, but in its current state, some people just aren’t going to have the patience for it. That being said, the animation (particularly for the characters) is stellar, the gameplay is deeply engaging (if at times frustrating), and the story is well worth experiencing. If you have the patience for an involved point-and-click, this is the one for you. [code]Reviewed at GameGrin.com.

So I played this game over the course of a few days. I really enjoyed it! Chronique des Silencieux has a really good flow of events. Talk to a bunch of people and look for clues, review your information, make deductions and finally confront the guilty party with your knowledge and catch them in their lies and contradictions. The music and the likable characters made this game a joy to play through. I actually almost didn't finish this game due to a glitch at the finale of the game, however the game dev responded to my inquiry extremely quickly and managed to fix my save so I could complete my run. It was a great experience that, if you like puzzling together a complete picture from lots of small, interconnected pieces of information I highly recommend checking out this game!
Jeu buggué. Impossible de suivre correctement les tutoriels. Le jeu est sorti il y a + d'un an, et cela n'a pas été corrigé. Lamentable.
Love the art style.
A fun detective game set in 60s France! The art and graphics are wonderful, the cut scenes are fully voiced, and overall the game is extremely immersive. I backed it on Kickstarter and am so excited to finally be playing it!
