Silent Paradise Anthology tells four short stories, inspired by classics of science fiction, staged as “metroidvania-style” action-adventure games.

- Fight a diverse ensemble of deadly enemies, including many fearsome bosses.
- Collect new abilities. Some will improve your fighting prowess and others will let you reach new places to continue your journey. Many will do both at once!
- Learn about the history of this world. Collect clues and piece how those incidents fit together.
