Silent Hill f Reviews
Silent Hill f delivers a compelling and creepy horror experience, with unique enemies and environments that feel smartly focused on telling Hinako's story. The focus on societal expectations of women and the competition forced upon them, even between friends and sisters, gives the horror elements a more pointed focus. It delivers on themes throughout, and while the combat is only just fine, some of the more compelling ideas, like the economy of Silent Hill f create a compelling and spooky experience. Obtuse puzzles and a lack of variety in combat hold Silent Hill f back from reaching the peak of the survival horror genre.
SILENT HILL f is a terrifying and terrific title. This harrowing tale of choice and consequence should thrill and properly disgust any fellow survival horror sicko.
Silent Hill f is a beautiful game, with deep lore and a compelling story that makes it shine. However, its qualities are held back by dated gameplay mechanics and a poor and misleading puzzle text translation (reviewed in Italian). Yet it's an experience worth living, especially for its impressive narrative strength and world-building.

Silent Hill F is the first new entry in the series in a long time. While it gets some things right, it falls short in others. Even though it doesn’t fully capture the classic Silent Hill feel, it’s still a good game.

Silent Hill f, although flawed, shows great promise for Konami's future plans for Silent Hill.

Though set in Japan, Silent Hill f more than earns the name: over about twelve hours it delivers the franchise’s hallmark mix of metaphor-rich storytelling, sometimes opaque puzzles, and brutally unsettling scenarios that invite reflection—so while purists may balk at the setting change, open-minded players will likely find their doubts quickly fade.
