TRY OUR DEMO at the Steam Game Festival!

Howdy!

This demo is meant to give you a taste of the world of Children of Silentown, our dark adventure game scheduled for release for late 2020.

Inspired by point & click games like Fran Bow, and with an art style reminiscent of “Coraline” and Tim Burton’s early works, Children of Silentown tells the story of Lucy amidst the horror of people disappearing, monsters, and an isolated village surrounded by forest.

Only by taking advantage of all the tools and tricks at her disposal, Lucy will be able to shed some light on the mysteries of Silentown, using her singing skills to tear the veil of apathy and silence surrounding the village.

Follow Lucy through her adventure between puzzles, minigames and important choices leading to different endings!

We released a first trailer back in 2019 that was quite well-received, also thanks to the superbly animated video by our collaborator and YouTuber Fraffrog (1M followers, go check her out!). Now the game is at the point where we can proudly show a nice, well-designed and super-polished demo, reason why we would like you to have a taste during this Steam Game Festival. :)

[h2]ABOUT US[/h2]
Elf Games is a small indie developer from Brescia, Italy.
Our first game, Little Briar Rose, is a vibrant and colorful adventure inspired by the tale of Sleeping Beauty and her enchanted forest of brambles. With Children of Silentown we are delving into the dark side of fables (and forests!) with a creepy, unsettling story… which we hope you’ll like!

Thanks
Elfs
