First Review!

@MostStrange at Action Points Podcast has written a lovely piece on his experience with the game!
Here are some of our favorite excerpts:

"Silence! The Elder Speaks joins games like To The Moon in building a unique narrative experience within a familiar mechanical framework and graphical style with (almost) SNES era RPG visuals. S!TES also sheds the turn-based combat in favour of punchy, trope-inverting dialogue."
"The reason S!TES works so well is because it carries the joy and nonsense of a children’s story with the context of a fairly adult experience."
"I was surprised at the emotional impact of some of the scenes, amid the silliness."
"Each part of the village is dense and contains everything it needs to convey its strange tale. I thoroughly enjoyed my short time with this adorable, unsettling, and hilarious RPG/storybook."
