How Does A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead Fit In The Movie Universe?
- A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead is a standalone game set in the same universe as the movies, but with little connection to the movies themselves.
- The game takes place after the events of A Quiet Place: Day One but before the events of the original movie.
- The story is set in upstate New York, and there are a few flashback segments that correspond with the films’ storylines.
- Although the game is set in the same universe as the movies, it features a different cast of characters.
- The game focuses on noise, similar to the movies. If you make too much noise, you will be hunted relentlessly by blind extraterrestrial creatures called Death Angels.
- The game provides a phonometer to measure sound in the environment and the sounds you make to help you navigate the world.
- The game can be played without having seen the movies, and it does not spoil any of the movies.
- The game's difficulty spikes feel artificial, but the tension and immersion are second to none.
- There's a setting that allows the creature to hear your mic in-game, so players should be careful when screaming too loud.
