Summary
Silent Hope is an enjoyable and completely functional action RPG that doesn’t take itself too seriously. The combat loop is fun, and there are multiple class to try out, and there’s something that everyone will enjoy. There’s plenty to do outside of the combat and questing, such as cooking and crafting. The game doesn’t reinvent the game, but it’s a fun game to pick up and play in chucks and has a nice overall challenge.
