Silent Hill: Townfall
Silent Hill: Townfall is a full-length, self-contained psychological horror set against the cold, isolated backdrop of Scotland, 1996. Players can explore St. Amelia, where fog-soaked streets, abandoned communities, and forgotten corners tell their story through atmosphere and history. Reality and delusion subtly intertwine, luring players into the depths of St. Amelia's grounded, tangible world.

What people are saying
Updated nightlySilent Hill: Townfall nails the series' signature dread with its incredible atmosphere and sound design in a bleak, foggy Scotland. The story is strong and the setting of St. Amelia is compelling, but the gameplay is where it loses people, with many finding the stealth frustrating and the combat outright bad. Performance on PC is a common complaint, and the high difficulty often feels punishing rather than scary. It's worth a look for the horror vibes and puzzles, but expect some jank.
