The Quiet Man has great live-action cutscenes, but the repetitive gameplay becomes tiresome.
In "The Quiet Man," play as Dane, a deaf protagonist, in a cinematic action game that blends live-action, CG, and combat. With minimal audio and no subtitles, experience a unique story-driven journey to uncover the motives behind a songstress's kidnapping by a masked man. The game's events and characters are entirely fictional.

Critic Reviews
The Quiet Man Review
The Quiet Man is a failed experiment, but unlike other games that share this fate, it doesn't seem constrained by budget or technical limitations – but rather poor execution and abnormal design choices that cause its own undoing.

The Sound Of Failure
30%The Quiet Man Review
There’s nothing else quite like The Quiet Man, and there’s a reason for that. The blend of FMV and interactive combat sequences fails on every level with an unfathomable plot that raises far more questions than it answers, and encounters that fail to explain themselves and do little to engage. The Quiet Man is the most baffling release of 2018, to the point where a post-mortem investigation into its sheer existence sounds so much more exciting than this bizarre and convoluted comedy sketch.
