Silt is a side-scroller. The gameplay is slow-paced and you explore the sea depths in a peaceful manner, admiring the surreal world full of fantastic structures, strange life forms, unexplored ruins and ancient machinery that can terrify and delight at the same time.

Game Ratings for Silt Video Game.
PlayStation Universe: 8 / 10 by Neil Bolt
Spiral Circus creates a spellbinding world of undersea dread and wonder with Silt. From the distinct hand-drawn visual style to the ambiguous mystery of its protagonist and setting, this is an engrossing experience only marred by sparse checkpointing.
Niche Gamer: 7 / 10 by Fingal Belmont
Silt is a very solid 2D adventure game. It is elevated by its powerful verisimilitude in its art and gripping sound design. Fans of surreal adventures with a vague story that is open to interpretation and 2D puzzling gameplay should check this one out.
Pure Nintendo: 7 / 10 by Roger Reichardt
The strength of Silt is in the atmosphere it creates. The art and the sound provide a horror-like vibe to this adventure puzzle game. And both of those aspects will pull you into the weird and mysterious world that Silt creates. The game doesn't hold your hand in any of the puzzles. And while most times this isn't an issue, as the puzzles are reasonably short and contained, it's the lengthier ones where this can cause some frustration. Overall, Silt provides a unique experience, just not a perfect one.
