History

 

       The story starts out pretty ordinarily. A thirty-two year old writer Harry Mason, along with his seven year old daughter Cheryl is heading for vacation. Suddenly a young woman runs in front of the vechicle. Not wanting to hit her, Harry rapidly turns as a result hitting the railing surrounding the town "Silent Hill".

   

       After regaining his conciousness, he notices that Cheryl has disappeared and almost immediately begins to search for her. However, after leaving the car, he feels that something is wrong. The lack of any signs of life, the omniscient fog and abnormal, for the current time of year, snow. All this seems at strange to say the least. From the far distance someone's steps are audible, when Harry goes to check this out, he spots his daughter, or rather her silhouette in the thick fog. He tries to catch her attention but in vain, with each and every of his steps his daughter is further and further from him, finally turning walking into running which ends in a small street where...

        So as not to spoil the fun for you, the further part will be left for you to reveal in-game. I must warn you however that the path is full of danger and all sorts of oddities. Surely more than once will you feel a strong repentance, discouragement or even repulsion. But you will surely be also amazed by the wonderful atmosphere that cannot be compared to any others. It is simply the best horror that one can possibly think of. The game has a deeper and more twisted story than one could have expected and four endings+one hidden make the game highly replayable, even a dozen times(I myself have completed it eleven times). On your way you will also meet other characters.

        Some will unclearly charter your course, which you can follow or try to find out what you are supposed to do on your own. The greatest power of "Silent Hill" are the many threads left unfinished, and for you to speculate upon. Thanks to this, we can create theories and speculations of our own, for example: on the subject of Cheryl's relation with the town of Silent Hill. I am quite convinced that those who have completed the game have their own speculations on the subject of happenings that have taken place in Silent Hill and those who have yet to complete it will surely recieve the game in their own way.

         Enjoy!
