In Silence is a multiplayer horror game developed and published by Ravenhood Games. Much like ‘Dead by Daylight’, In Silence is a multiplayer game where one player plays as the monster and the other (2–6 players) play as people trying to survive being attacked by the monster.

The monster in question is called the ‘Rake’, a monstrous human like beast that roams the forest in search of its next victim. The only problem is that the Rake can only see things that move. This makes the game rather fun to play as a group since the goal of the game for the survivors is to not get captured by the Rake. Running away may not always be the best option and could lead to your death. However, if you do die as a survivor you will become a mouse. As a mouse you can run around the map and talk to your teammates, help them find things and distract the Rake.

Another aspect that is important to know about the Rake is that it has incredible hearing. The Rake can hear you step on a twig from miles away. The Rake is also incredibly fast and can outrun the survivors easily. It’s not all fun and games for the Rake though. Survivors have two choices to make when trying to avoid the Rake. They can either work on the broken car and try and get it running to escape the forest, or go into the armory on site full of weapons and hunting traps and try to hunt down the Rake!

In Silence is still in its early development phase so the full game will likely not be out on PC until some time in 2021.
