Silent Still is the first of two games to focus on the horrors of sleep paralysis.
As someone who's experienced sleep paralysis a few times now, the game does well to capture the feeling of helplessness as your mind manifests malevolent beings in your vicinity.
The genuine horror you feel while darting your eyes around, what should be, the safety of your home is palpable. This should be my sanctuary, so why does it suddenly feel like the worst place in the world?
My one running thought throughout this game? Close your doors and turn the bloody lights off!
This game had NO REASON to be this scary! But man I’m excited to play the second game. I was convinced that by now loud jump scares wouldn’t work on me but Solitary Studios did it RIGHT with this one!
Super fun and an amazing horror experience. it's short and sweet and it's effective use of atmosphere has a big payoff in the end. It was a blast to record this and I'll definitely be checking out more!
한국에서는 흔히 가위 라고 불리는 수면현상에 대한 공포게임으로 아무것도 못한다는 게 진짜 공포로 다가온다는 걸 잘 이용하셨다고 생각됩니다.
I think you took good advantage of the fact that it's a real fear that you can't do anything with a fear game about sleep phenomena commonly called scissors in Korea.

I played the shorter version of this game, so my review might be outdated but I really enjoyed this experience. Some of the movement felt clunky and not responsive, but the overall core of the game was so freaky and gave me a HUGE scare. Good job to the developer! A shortened version of my playthrough was included in my recent episode of the indie horror showcase

What an AMAZING game! The atmosphere is chilling and I believe you captured the horror and feeling someone has experiencing sleep paralysis.
Thanks for the game,

Gameplay español:
El juego en si se ve bastante bien, lo único la duración (demasiado corto).

韓国ではよくハサミと呼ばれる睡眠現象に対する恐怖ゲームで、何もできないというのが本当の恐怖として迫ってくるということをよく利用されたと思われます。
Wish it never happens to you...

This game is extremely well made!! The atmosphere is so tense! It must be horrible for people living with this condition! Well done Solitary Studios!!
caseoh cummmmmed
You did an awesome job on this one developer!
Excellent jeu d'horreur, on ressent vraiment la terreur que peut apporter une expérience comme la paralysie du sommeil.
