Following its positive reception on Steam, DevilishGames and Making Enemies have announced that Scholar Adventure: Mystery of Silence will be released for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S on July 3rd, 2026. The game is already available to wishlist on the PlayStation Store and Nintendo eShop, and can be pre-ordered on the Microsoft Store.
In this first installment of the Scholar Adventure series, players step into the shoes of William, a young writer searching for inspiration for his debut novel. His quest leads him to a remote abbey where the monks have taken a strict vow of silence. What begins as a peaceful literary retreat soon spirals into a disturbing mystery: within the monastery walls lies a dark secret that was never meant to be uncovered.
Inspired by the golden age of 1990s point-and-click adventures, Mystery of Silence blends atmospheric pixel art with a narrative rich in suspense and dark humor. Players will explore haunting environments, solve clever inventory-based puzzles, and uncover the truths hidden deep within the abbey.
With an estimated playtime of two to three hours, Mystery of Silence offers a focused, intense, and carefully crafted experience designed to keep players immersed until its conclusion. The console versions reinforce DevilishGames’ and Making Enemies’ commitment to bringing this first installment of the Scholar Adventure series to a wider audience, while also laying the groundwork for future stories within its narrative universe.
