DevilishGames and Making Enemies are pleased to announce that Scholar Adventure: Mystery of Silence will arrive on Steam on December 11 at a price of $7.99, with a 10% launch discount.
After winning over players with its free demo during Steam Next Fest, Mystery of Silence is set to enchant fans of classic adventures. With an evocative retro style, players will delve into a mysterious abbey where nothing is what it seems.
In this first installment of the Scholar Adventure saga, we follow William, a young writer in search of inspiration for his first work. His journey leads him to an isolated abbey whose monks have taken a vow of silence. What begins as a simple literary quest, soon turns into a disturbing mystery: hidden within the monastery’s walls lies a secret that should never have been revealed.
Developed with PowerQuest, the tool behind recent hits such as The Drifter, and inspired by 1990s graphic adventures, Mystery of Silence combines dark, detailed pixel art with a narrative laced with dark humor. Players will explore environments shrouded in mystery, solve clever puzzles, and use items to uncover the secrets the abbey hides.
With a duration of between 2 and 3 hours, the game offers a focused, intense experience that will keep players glued to the screen until the final secret is unearthed.
The new trailer is now available and immerses players in this fascinating adventure full of mystery, suspense, and enigmas. After its initial Steam release, the game will also launch on other platforms—still to be announced—during 2026.
