Silent Hill: Text Messages is an intriguing rebirth of the series, and even if the title isn't all that stunning, it's a testament to the reinvigorating power it can bring to modern players. It is full of potential and bodes well for new works in the future.

Silent Hill: Text Messages' bland gameplay and boring chase scenes are frustrating, making the gameplay itself feel like a crime a lot of the time. The game, while having some interesting full-motion cutscenes and heavy story details, isn't worth struggling with boring clips just to experience those details. However, it's completely free, and it only takes 90 minutes to get started.
