Adventure game specialist Daedalic Entertainment has announced a sequel to its 2010 point 'n' clicker The Whispered World, by the name of Silence: The Whispered World 2. While the original was hand-drawn, this time Daedalic's plumped for pretty stylised 3D.

"We accompany Noah, a teenager, who lost his little sister Renie in the hazardous real world and now hopes to find her again in Silence," Daedalic explained in the announcement. "His quest leads him to another visually impressive and emotional adventure, where players get to solve plenty of mysteries surrounding Noah, his sister and the dreamscapes of Silence."

The original reviewed okay, but tended towards classic torturous 'adventure game logic.'

The Whispered World 2 is slated to launch on PC and Mac "towards the end of 2014."
