Scholar Adventure: Mystery of Silence slated for Nintendo Switch

Today, DevilishGames and Making Enemies announced Scholar Adventure: Mystery of Silence for Nintendo Switch. A release is planned for the first half of 2026.

Mystery of Silence is a point-and-click adventure game. It features William, a young writer in search of inspiration, who enters an abbey shrouded in silence.

Further details can be found in the following rundown:

In this first installment of the Scholar Adventure saga, we follow William, a young writer in search of inspiration for his first work. His journey takes him to an isolated abbey whose monks have taken a vow of silence. What begins as a simple literary quest, soon turns into a disturbing mystery: hidden within the monastery’s walls lies a secret that should never have been revealed.

Developed with PowerQuest, the tool behind recent hits such as The Drifter, and inspired by 1990s graphic adventures, Mystery of Silence combines dark, detailed pixel art with a narrative laced with dark humor. Players will explore environments shrouded in mystery, solve clever puzzles, and use items to uncover the secrets the abbey hides.

With an approximate playtime of 2 to 3 hours, the game delivers a direct, intense, and carefully crafted experience that will keep players engaged until its final secret is revealed. The console and mobile versions represent a strong commitment by DevilishGames and Making Enemies to bring this first entry in the Scholar Adventure saga to a wider audience, laying the groundwork for the development of new and future adventures within the series’ universe.
