Pixel Crit Silent Hill f Review

Silent Hill f is an unexpected return to form to a series that’s failed to produce a quality new title in almost 20 years. The horror of Hinako’s journey is unrelenting, yet you can’t help but push through it. Although it is held back somewhat by an outdated combat system, every other aspect of Silent Hill f is top quality. Ryukishi07 takes his chance to address difficult themes in 1960s Japan, focusing on life growing up as a young woman and the challenges that young girls were faced with. He writes fantastically here, treating those themes with respect and giving us a story that grips us from beginning to end. I was absolutely enthralled with Silent Hill f. In a very strong year for video games, I believe it stands out as a unique experience, and one of the best games of 2025.
