Wishlist Now About the Game Step into the eerie world of Ayasa , a dark tale that blends quests, horror, and puzzles into a haunting journey. Without a single spoken word, the story is told through pantomime, surreal imagery, and a soundtrack composed by Komitas . You will navigate six symbolic lands  Faith, Hope, Love, Greed, Indifference, and Betrayal  each corrupted by darkness. Every choice you make, every act of compassion or indifference, may lead to an unexpected ending. Will you restore balance or become the very force you sought to defeat? Story: The Inverted World was once in balance, where light and shadow coexisted under the watch of Tas, the Absolute. But now, war has shattered that harmony. As darkness spreads, Ayasa must journey through lands ravaged by greed, betrayal, and indifference, seeking the remnants of Tas’s light hidden within the realms of love, faith, and hope. This is not just a quest to survive it is a war of the soul, where the battlefield lies within. Key Features: A Dark and Surreal World – Explore hauntingly beautiful lands inspired by Tim Burton , René Laloux , Robert Sahakyants , and Hayao Miyazaki . Light and Shadow Mechanics – Use light to reveal paths, activate ancient machines, and push back the darkness. Challenging Puzzles – Solve intricate environmental puzzles that test logic, timing, and creativity. Unique Abilities – Unlock powers from the good lands during gameplay when solving puzzles. Immersive Atmosphere – A dialogue-free narrative told through pantomime, visual symbolism, and a deeply emotional soundtrack. Gameplay: Navigate treacherous terrain, avoid dangers, and solve puzzles using Ayasa’s abilities. Each land brings unique mechanics and moral choices, where your conscience determines the world’s fate. The game blends platforming, exploration, and environmental storytelling into an unforgettable experience. Art Direction Every frame is a painting rich in symbolism, surrealism, and noir emotion. The world’s beauty is laced with melancholy, using a minimalist yet powerful color palette to evoke both wonder and dread. Levels feel alive, each location tells its own silent story. Ayasa: Shadows of Silence invites players into a world where the smallest act can change everything and where the end depends on the heart that guides your choices. 

Press reviews: “'Ayasa: Shadows of Silence‘s world feels somewhat similar, blending a mix of traditional fantasy vistas with eerie, Little Nightmares-style themes. For me, it was an immediate wishlist based purely on its aesthetic alone.'” Lauren Bergin from PCGAMESN “''If you’re hankering for an indie horror experience akin to Little Nightmares, I think I’ve found it. A first look at Ayasa: Shadow of Silence dropped today, an upcoming platformer blending exploration, puzzles, and horror to deliver a spooky narrative-driven experience.''” Alex Gibson from Nerd Stash “''Ayasa, Shadows of Silence has a creepiness of its own, combined with its own brand of gameplay.''” Mike Wilson from Bloody Disgusting
