Digital adventure game

The Moment of Silence is a classic point-and-click adventure set in a dystopian 2044 New York City. Players control advertising executive Peter Wright as he investigates a neighbour's disappearance and uncovers a web of government corruption. The game features 75 locations, over 500 interactive screens, and full motion-captured animation with lip-synchronised dialogue. A Steam account is required for activation and installation.

For narrative-focused players

This download suits gamers who enjoy story-driven exploration, traditional inventory puzzles, and branching dialogue choices in a mature sci-fi setting. It runs on legacy 32-bit and 64-bit Windows systems from Windows 98 through Windows 8 with only 256 MB RAM and an 800 MHz processor required. Buyers in blocked regions including Russia, China, and Cuba cannot activate the product. Players seeking fast-paced action or modern 3D graphics should look elsewhere.

Steam DRM requirement

Activation is tied exclusively to the Steam platform and is only available in select countries listed in the specifications. An internet connection and a valid Steam account are mandatory before the game can be installed or played. The title cannot be launched through any other client or in offline mode without prior Steam verification. Check the blocked region list carefully before purchase.
