Silence of the Sleep

я розумію, що ця містична гра по знижці коштує як бутилка живчика. але це невиправдане іскушеніє діявола на моменті стелсу тебе донімає, і ти, переможений такою дікою несправедливістю, виходиш з неї, аби сфокусуватись на втихомиренні внутрішньої агресії, і благополучно більше ніколи не відкриваєш. +10 очків нішевості

It's been a long time since I played this, so long that I had to refresh myself through some videos. I think that visually it still stands as almost impeccable, with those detailed, surreal backgrounds and characters portrayed as silhouettes. Some animations look like retouched video footage, as detailed and fluid as they are. It is surely clunky to play and can feel way too slow at times, but it has its moments and shows all the talent of the developer, who would go on to make more games.

História e atmosfera excelentes, apesar de eu não curtir a jogabilidade de ter que me esconder de monstro.

Unfortunately, can't recommend.... the game doesn't support modern resolutions and it tells you to change your screen refresh rate to 60hz for it to run properly. Controls are clunky.

Игра которая вызвала страх не скримерами, а атмосферой. Я каждый раз жутко ссалась из-за этой длинной соломенки и саундтрека который включается когда он рядом

I wanted to like this game but sadly the clunky controls and lack of saving points made quit very early on in the game

Solo voy a decir que hace muchos años no me motiva completar un juego, ni hablar de juegos de terror que últimamente me aburren...pero este juego desde principio me decía algo diferente y ahora que lo terminé, puedo decir que sin duda no es un juego, es una experiencia en donde dejas de ser vos y te transformas en el protagonista. Es el claro ejemplo de que las horas no son importantes, me lo pasé en 8 horas, pero lo que me hizo vivir esta obra de arte no la voy a olvidar nunca. Felicidades a los creadores por el gran trabajo. TOTALMENTE RECOMENDADO!!

Silence of the Sleep is a dark, story-driven adventure that follows a troubled man descending through a surreal, nightmarish world shaped by grief and self-reflection. The game leans heavily into symbolism, using strange environments and unsettling encounters to tell its story. What stood out to me is how deeply psychological it feels. The atmosphere is oppressive, the themes are heavy, and the narrative explores guilt, despair, and inner conflict in a very raw way. Gameplay is simple, almost secondary, but it fits the experience — playing it feels like moving through someone’s fractured mind. It’s disturbing, emotional, and best suited for players who appreciate introspective horror with strong narrative meaning.

What can I say about Silence of the Sleep? The visuals are OK, even if the art style often makes it hard to see items of interest. Some of the sounds can make your ears bleed if you do not turn down the volume. The gameplay is slow and tedious and relies too much on backtracking. Sections with monsters are by far the most interesting and have a survivor horror feel to them, but are let down by clunky controls. Sections without monsters are dull as molasses, with the hospital chapter the worst offender. It easily makes up half the play time while giving the player absolutely nothing to do other then run around, completing pointless chores and solving meaningless puzzles. And the ending is so laughably cheesy, I wish the game just completed the loop and spit me right back at the start.
