Storyline

Simon Ordell awakens on the shores of the Scottish island town of St. Amelia with no memory of how or why he is there. Exploring the town, he finds it is shrouded in fog and completely abandoned save for numerous monsters roaming the streets. He finds a portable television, branded as CRTV, and is contacted by a man named Richard, who urges Simon to fulfil an unspecified purpose. Simon also encounters Zoe Ellis, a local nurse he has some form of connection to. As Simon follows both Zoe and Richard's trails, he collects clues around the town as well as views recordings transmitted to his CRTV that begin to explain the situation to him. He, Zoe, and Richard all appear to be trapped in a purgatory-like realm that takes the form of St. Amelia, where they are doomed to eternally relive the events that caused their feelings of guilt. Back in the real world, St. Amelia was a struggling fishing town that was revitalised thanks to investment from the petrochemical company Chapman Energy Group, which had built a corporate campus and refinery on the island to support the nearby SWDP oil rig. However, a catastrophic fire broke out on the SWDP, resulting in the deaths of all 95 workers on board. Simon was present on the oil rig as an independent safety inspector and ended up being the sole survivor. Zoe tended to Simon and performed lifesaving surgery on him, and he was airlifted to the mainland for further treatment. The people of St. Amelia then turned their anger against CEG, accusing them of cutting corners on safety and covering up serious deficiencies. CEG, in turn, laid the blame on its CEO Richard Shaw, who had bypassed inspection on one of the rig's components. In desperation, Richard promised to arrange a lifesaving heart transplant for Simon, but in return Simon would have to provide false testimony claiming that Richard and CEG were not at fault. While he initially agreed to the deal, Simon began to have second thoughts due to his conscience. In the otherworld, these circumstances result in Simon being trapped due to his guilt over his complicity in covering up the SWDP disaster, Zoe being trapped because of her regret over failing to save her patients, and…

Gameplay

Silent Hill: Townfall is played from a first-person perspective and focuses on three different characters (Simon, Zoe and Richard) across six chapters. While each character can use melee weapons such as planks and pipes to defend themselves, as well as ranged weapons such as a pistol, shotgun and flare gun, they can also use stealth to hide from enemies and make their way through the environment undetected. They can also throw bottles and bricks to either distract enemies momentarily, or to stun them briefly. Simon is equipped with a CRTV handheld device which allows him to detect the location of nearby enemies through any obstacles or walls.
