Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We chose Early Access because Silent Abbey is a dark medieval horror game that can benefit from feedback and ideas from the community during development.

We want players to experience the atmosphere, explore the world, discover its secrets, and help us identify what works best and what could be improved. Early Access will give us an opportunity to improve gameplay, balance mechanics, fix issues, and develop the experience based on player feedback.

As an independent development team, we believe that involving players in the process can help us shape Silent Abbey into a better horror experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect Silent Abbey to remain in Early Access for approximately 12–18 months. This estimate may change depending on development progress, technical improvements, and community feedback.

Our priority is to make meaningful improvements to the game rather than rush development to meet a fixed deadline.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to expand and refine Silent Abbey throughout Early Access based on our development goals and feedback from players.

The full version is intended to offer a more complete horror experience, with further development of the story, environments, exploration, enemy encounters, gameplay mechanics, atmosphere, and overall polish.

We also plan to use Early Access to identify technical issues, improve performance, balance gameplay, and refine existing systems. The exact scope of additional content may evolve during development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Silent Abbey is a work in progress. Players can explore dark medieval environments, investigate mysterious locations, interact with gameplay mechanics, and encounter elements of the game's horror experience.

Some areas, systems, and story elements are still being developed and refined. Players may encounter bugs, performance issues, unfinished content, or mechanics that change during updates.

We are continuing to improve stability, gameplay, atmosphere, and overall quality as development progresses. We recommend that players follow the store page and community announcements for updates about the game's current state.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to offer Silent Abbey at an accessible price during Early Access. As the game develops and more content and improvements are introduced, we may gradually increase the price to reflect the expanded experience.

Any pricing changes will be considered carefully and communicated to the community in advance.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community feedback will be an important part of Silent Abbey's development during Early Access.

We plan to listen to player suggestions, review bug reports, discuss gameplay balance, and gather feedback about the atmosphere, exploration, enemies, and overall horror experience.

Players will be able to share their thoughts through the Steam Community Hub and discussions. We will use this feedback to help prioritize improvements and guide development decisions where appropriate.

We cannot guarantee that every suggestion will be implemented, but we want the community to have a meaningful opportunity to contribute to the game's development.”

About This Game

Desperate Journey Into the Unknown

You are Aurelius, a former priest who receives a mysterious letter from the abbey. Something has gone terribly wrong. The abbey and the lands around it have been taken over by a dark force.

Your goal is to reach the abbey and find out what happened.

Scavenge to Survive

The road to the Abbey is not a straight path. You will have to leave the main route and explore different areas to find oil, bandages, and other useful items.

  • Underground Areas and Ruins

    Explore underground rooms, caves, and old ruins.

  • ​Forests and Open Areas

    Move through forests, fields, and other outdoor areas. Sound is important here. Running, stepping on branches, or making too much noise can attract enemies.

The Lantern

You can control how bright it is. A brighter light lets you see more, but it uses more oil. When your oil gets low, your visibility also becomes worse.

The lantern can also change color:

Normal light uses the least oil.

Blue light uses twice as much oil.

Red light uses three times as much oil.

You have to decide when it is worth using more oil to see better or deal with certain enemies.

​

Sound and Light

Enemies behave differently depending on what they can detect.

Some enemies react mainly to sound. Opening doors, running, or making other noises can attract them.

Other enemies react to your lantern. Some may only see you when it is lit, while others behave differently depending on the type of light you choose.

Combat

Combat is limited and dangerous.

Discover What Happened

As you explore the world, you will find letters, dolls, books, and other objects connected to the Abbey.

These items slowly reveal what happened to the priests who lived there and how the corruption began.

The further you get, the more you learn about the Abbey, the creatures around it, and the reason Aurelius was called back.

The main goal is simple: survive the journey, reach the Silent Abbey, and discover the truth.
