The game itself is straight forward with a NEW or RESUME feature and the promise of in game support. While there’s a very short and loopy soundtrack to contend with, this can thankfully be controlled via the app settings… so it’s certainly workplace safe!

That said it’s here we had problems as you can see in our screenshot the help text was never in view and made for hard reading…

This is because of the lack of screen space allocated to help text and has meant the text has been obscured or rather it isn’t immediately obvious that you can scroll up and down to read it.

(We’re sure in later versions that will be resolved.)

(As you can see the top of help text is lost)

This means for those new to the game and unaware on how to play Silver it’s now a lot harder to jump right in and that’s a shame for what is a very friendly looking game in it’s visuals and layout.

Thankfully we’re old hat with the rules so we pushed on and having selected our Village the game begins and it’s business as expected in the fight to remove werewolves from the village!

In this version we are playing against an AI character so it’s very quick and responsive to crack on with the game as we rapidly exchange cards in a bid to win 4 rounds with the lowest amount of werewolves.

We’re hoping that later versions of the game will feature Player vs Player in an online experience, but for now the games AI is doing a fairly solid job of competing with us.

As pointed out before the artwork in Silver has always been top notch and the cards are reflective of this, it’s just a shame they are so small!

That said we found by accident that long holding a finger down on the card did show it in its full glory but we don’t recall seeing that mentioned in the interface and that’s a shame.

So there’s a tip from us: hold down on any card to see some beautiful artwork.

The game itself played as expected and depending on your play style went very rapid without any glitches or pauses – great experience all in all and we won in all instances on the games we played so is that reflective of the AI, we’re not too sure but a difficulty setting would be a great thing to test against.

During gameplay however it’s apparent that its very early days for the app as the help screens (as some of our reviewers called upon) are very basic and not reflective of the same quality as the artwork of the app itself and this breaks immersion and that’s a shame as that could have been a very quick fix before release.

We can’t be too critical with a free game such as Silver (currently it is free on both App Stores) but it has to be pointed out that one major bugbear we found is if you take a little too long to take a move and your screensaver kicks in you aren’t returned to your game but rather the home screen and must instead resume game!

That’s quite frustrating and perhaps should be reconsidered for later versions.

Overall though this is the fun game you expect from Bezier and it’s totally free  so we suggest you grab it while you can and give it your own opinion.

That said we’d love to sit with Bezier and their app team to give some really positive feedback from over a decade working in online and mobile gaming and truly with a little bit of rework to the experience, Silver will really shine…
