The Cost Of Silence — Description
The Cost Of Silence is a short, focused first-person experience about the unseen weight of modern suffering. You move through six symbolic rooms, each representing a real-world injustice shaped by the last few years of American and global history. In every room, you uncover a hidden truth — not through spectacle, but through what is left behind. When a truth is found, it stays with you.
Each room leaves a mark: a small symbolic object and a distinct sound that follows you as you progress. These burdens cannot be dropped, ignored, or undone. As they accumulate, movement grows heavier, progress slows, and silence becomes louder. There are no enemies to defeat, no choices to justify. There is only the cost of witnessing — and the cost of looking away.
