Evaluation

Noise launched into Early Access in August 2017 and reached its full 1.0 release on October 13, 2019. The developer's last known communication dates back to January 14, 2018, when they outlined plans for that year — primarily finishing the remaining levels and completing the full release. The 8 news posts scanned (spanning 2017–2018) are all pre-release activity: patch notes, VR support, optimization updates, and planning posts. There are no post-launch developer communications, no DLC listings, no announced expansions, and no roadmap beyond getting to 1.0. The store description presents the game as a complete, self-contained narrative horror experience with no mention of ongoing content, seasons, or additional chapters. Given that the game shipped as a finished story-driven product with no post-launch content cycle, it is best understood as a completed, standalone release.

About this game

The USSR era is coming to its end – it is 1988.

The radio amateur catches a strange signal that emits incomprehensible noises. It is broadcast around the clock and only sometimes a human voice makes its way through the air. However, it is impossible to make out what the person is saying. The most mysterious thing, though, is related to the fact that according to the maps the place the signal is coming from does not exist. As a main character, you will have to uncover terrifying secrets about this enigmatic signal.

There is no weapon in the game. The protagonist does not know how to handle it. The most useful thing you have is a radio. With its help you can understand what is happening in this place. You choose the radio wave on your own in order to catch the desired signal, contact people, or simply listen to the radio of the USSR. There are a lot of moments in the game related to the use of the radio.

The story in Noise is not a typical faceless horror. We'd like to tell you an interesting yet sinister story. The story will be rendered through conversations and thoughts of the protagonist as well as through the study of locations. Some details of the story can remain unnoticed if you don't study the locations carefully. The story is set in the USSR which gives it a peculiar flair.

The main antagonist of the story is the creature which is constantly wandering around, exploring the location the same way you do. It hunts you and reacts to your actions. If you turn on the light or use a flashlight, the creature will go and check what is happening. You need to try hard to hide from it because you cannot kill it. The creature sees nothing in the dark, so sometimes it will be enough to simply turn off the light and wait for a while.

The creature emits radio waves, so you can track it with your radio.

The creature is important to the story. It is no less important than the protagonist.
