Reminding me of a fairytale, Children of Silentown was a cute point and click puzzle game featuring an isolated town and their fear of the surrounding forest. Taking control of a rebellious child named Lucy, the story was a journey of curiosity and secrets. Progressing often required finding objects and combining them, or utilising the unique mechanic that was Lucy's musical talent to aid her in overcoming obstacles, even the ability to see the memories of villagers. These songs prompted minigame puzzles which I feel were overused and, if I'm honest, I really came to dislike one sort of puzzle in particular.

Still, it had much to enjoy with its artstyle, music and quirky characters. It also had some spookiness but nothing overtly scary.
