Silent Waters

Silent Waters, the horror title from indie studio CogiMachine, is now available on Steam following its August 25, 2026 release.

The game was built by a team of three, and the developers describe it as a horror experience designed to be accessible to players who typically avoid gore or graphic violence. The stated thematic intention is the feeling of "escaping from the absurd" — a phrase the team draws explicitly from real life.

What changed

  • Silent Waters has launched on Steam (AppID 4027610)
  • A 25% launch discount is available for a limited time
  • The developers are actively soliciting reviews and community discussion via the Steam Community Hub

For players who have been curious about the game but wary of visceral horror, the launch discount offers a modest window to try it at a lower price point.
