Critic Reviews for Silt
Because of everything that is spectacular about Silt – its stunning art style, atmospheric environments, and pensive story – I wanted to love this game. It just wouldn’t let me. Exasperating puzzles with little guidance frequently slowed my progress to a halt and left me banging my head against a wall. Even so, I still encourage players to pick up the title, if for no other reason than to experience so gorgeous a game.
Its flaws make it stay a few steps below the games in which it is inspired, but the oppressive setting and the mechanics of possession make Silt a more than recommended option for lovers of these surreal games.

Silt is a beautiful looking game, but the sluggish movement and lack of checkpointing make it hard to recommend.
The debut puzzler from Spiral Circus delves into the mysteries and fears that lurk in the deep
It takes nothing away from the real triumph Silt is, though, with stunning visuals, disturbing sound cues, and an enjoyable gameplay loop. Silt represents what's so special about indies: a great game just outside the norm.
Spiral Circus creates a spellbinding world of undersea dread and wonder with Silt. From the distinct hand-drawn visual style to the ambiguous mystery of its protagonist and setting, this is an engrossing experience only marred by sparse checkpointing.
Silt is a unique game that perfectly blends the themes of horror and isolation. Due to the abominations that manifest within, unease spreads throughout and you will second-guess every narrow path. The wonderful puzzles offer a suitable level of challenge which will you keep you content. Even though the movement is a little rigid and it is relatively short, it’s a brilliant experience that taps into the darkest, depths of thalassophobia.
Silt is a grayscale adventure in thalassophobia, it is to understand that we are just a small cog in the big machine.
