Reviews

“Sylvio succeeds at every single thing it wants to do. Games don’t do this kind of hermetic horror often, and Sylvio makes zero concessions.”
80/100 – KillScreen

“It’s a quiet horror game – an anti-screamer, right down to the calm almost-whispers of the protagonist – and it’s a triumph.”
Rock, Paper, Shotgun

“It's exciting, charmingly indie and above all, just the right amount of scary.”
8/10 – IGN
