We spend a lot of times in our games being bullies. We manipulate environments and the people in them; we knock NPCs over and laugh as they struggle to get back up. It can’t really be helped that those are the most entertaining ways to interact – but it’s cool to see somebody explicitly explore the other perspective.

Silent Enemy is set in the land of Permanent Winter which, as you can probably guess, has been blanketed by centuries of frost. All manner of creatures, whether man or beast, struggle to survive through the harsh times, save for the crows. Those sly tufts of black plumage embrace the cold and prey upon the rest of us who have to suffer through Winter. There are legends of a thing called Spring, but no one really believes in the fairy tales of those halcyon days.
