Silent Abbey

About the Game

Desperate Journey Into the Unknown

You are Aurelius, a former priest who receives a mysterious letter from the abbey. Something has gone terribly wrong. The abbey and the lands around it have been taken over by a dark force.

Your goal is to reach the abbey and find out what happened.

Scavenge to Survive

The road to the Abbey is not a straight path. You will have to leave the main route and explore different areas to find oil, bandages, and other useful items.

• Underground Areas and Ruins

  Explore underground rooms, caves, and old ruins.

• ​Forests and Open Areas

  Move through forests, fields, and other outdoor areas. Sound is important here. Running, stepping on branches, or making too much noise can attract enemies.

The Lantern

You can control how bright it is. A brighter light lets you see more, but it uses more oil. When your oil gets low, your visibility also becomes worse.

The lantern can also change color:

Normal light uses the least oil.

Blue light uses twice as much oil.

Red light uses three times as much oil.

You have to decide when it is worth using more oil to see better or deal with certain enemies.

​

Sound and Light

Enemies behave differently depending on what they can detect.

Some enemies react mainly to sound. Opening doors, running, or making other noises can attract them.

Other enemies react to your lantern. Some may only see you when it is lit, while others behave differently depending on the type of light you choose.

Combat

Combat is limited and dangerous.

Discover What Happened

As you explore the world, you will find letters, dolls, books, and other objects connected to the Abbey.

These items slowly reveal what happened to the priests who lived there and how the corruption began.

The further you get, the more you learn about the Abbey, the creatures around it, and the reason Aurelius was called back.

The main goal is simple: survive the journey, reach the Silent Abbey, and discover the truth.
