Press release

DevilishGames and Making Enemies present Scholar Adventure: Mystery of Silence, a haunting graphic adventure coming in late 2025

Villena, Alicante – August 19, 2025 – Developed by Making Enemies (Ayose Trujillo) and published by the veteran studio DevilishGames, Scholar Adventure: Mystery of Silence is a classic-style point & click adventure that will transport players to a mysterious abbey where nothing is what it seems. In this first installment of the Scholar Adventure saga, players will play as William, a young writer searching for inspiration for his first novel.


His journey takes him to a remote abbey whose monks have taken a vow of silence. What begins as a simple literary quest soon turns into a chilling enigma: within its walls lies a secret that should never have been uncovered. Developed with PowerQuest—the tool also used to create recent hits such as The Drifter—and inspired by the graphic adventures of the 1990s, Mystery of Silence combines dark, detailed pixel art with a deep narrative and touches of black humor.


Players will explore atmospheric environments, solve environmental puzzles, and use the objects they find along the way to uncover the abbey’s hidden secrets. The experience will have an approximate duration of two hours and is designed as a tribute to the classics of the genre, focusing on exploration, puzzle-solving, and narrative immersion. A demo version of the game will be available during the Steam Next Fest in October.
