Game Groups > Silent Hill series
Silent Hill is a series of primarily survival horror games, originally developed by Team Silent of the Konami Tokyo branch. The last game developed by Team Silent was Silent Hill 4: The Room. Subsequent games in the series were created by western studios.
Most of the games are not directly connected to each other story-wise, but all take place in the fictional town of Silent Hill and its' environs. This seemingly ordinary, quiet North American town exists in three different dimensions, one being our normal reality, and the other two monster-infested realms that owe their existence to the town's mysterious past. In one of these two dimensions, Silent Hill is a fog-enveloped, nearly abandoned town overrun by supernatural creatures; in the other (called the "Otherworld"), it is an ever more terrifying place full of dark, hellish imagery. The protagonists are typically ordinary people who venture to the town for personal reasons, and must survive and complete their quests.
Silent Hill started as a survival horror series, featuring traditional gameplay of the genre and emphasizing the protagonists' lack of combat prowess. The main characters had often to rely on improvised melee weapons and weak firearms for defense; escaping and avoiding combat was the preferable option in some instances. Puzzle-solving has also been an essential gameplay element of the series, the puzzles ranging from simple inventory-based tasks to more complex logic- and manipulation-based challenges.
