Evaluation

The Silent Age released on May 29, 2015 as a complete point-and-click adventure game with 10 chapters telling a self-contained story. The only post-launch developer communication specifically about this game was a single bug-fix patch on June 10, 2015, addressing minor issues reported by players. No DLC, expansions, or additional content have ever been announced or released for the game. The developer (House On Fire / Matt) has since moved on to creating the "Murder Is Game Over" series of separate games, with a fourth entry in that series announced as of July 2026. There is no indication that any further content is planned or was ever planned for The Silent Age — it launched as a finished, standalone product and remains so.
