Moment of Silence on a dimensional avenue and more

3DAvenue have posted their review of House of Tales' Moment of Silence and rank it with a score of 80%.

The Moment of Silence is a game that should be played but unfortunately due to the adventure genre dying out will probably be ignored to a large degree. It is a game that can last weeks and weeks due to the tough puzzles and considering it has an interesting storyline to go along with it, it all adds up to a quality adventure title which adventure fans and anyone who likes a fairly good game should try.

Also, check out another MOS review over at Quandary Land where they give it 4 and a half star out of five:

So what's not to like? If you're easily offended, there's a humourous usage of New York Spanish street slang in one scene that might ruffle your feathers, but it's not even remotely as offensive as some of the patter in, for instance, The Longest Journey. One thing you'll surely run afoul of though, is a show stopping problem if you don't download and apply the Update 1.01 patch before playing. There's a vital clue to a puzzle that is transcribed incorrectly until you apply this patch. Funny, but even though it's a significant issue the Digital Jesters forum kind of downplays it. I suppose they didn't want to spoil the game by making the explanation more explicit? I only twigged it because I had taken a screenshot of the text in question before applying the patch. It did cost me an hour's worth of head scratching though.
