Edit
In the depths of a dark and unforgiving forest, an exiled princess whiles her time in solitude. For a girl raised in the lap of comfort, the woods are impossibly harsh, and day-to-day survival is the most she can manage. One day, however, a mysterious, beautiful maiden appears, throwing her world out of its already delicate alignment. The princess is instantly captivated by this stranger, and begins to fancy herself the heroine of a fairytale, even as the maiden proves herself to be less and less of a fantasy.
Foolish princess. She should know by now that her life is no fairytale.
In seven days, the wheel of fate will splinter. Seven days, for better or worse…

In this game's embrace, love whispers sweet,
A symphony of heartstrings, complete.
Yearning for the developer's artful hand,
Though veiled in obscurity's quiet stand.
Yet greatness dwells within, unseen by mass,
A gem of talent, awaiting its chance to amass.
So let me linger, in anticipation's state,
To hear once more from this creator, so great.

LOVELY ROMANCE WITH DARK UNDERTONES
Without A Voice is a short (~1h/slightly more if you want to see all endings) yuri Visual Novel that you can play for free. It's mostly a sweet romance, but there's also A LOT of darker undertones (like incestuous themes). Certain endings are way more bleak than others. If you're not okay with that, then it may be better to not play this game.
I'm fine with more "serious" plots, so I didn't have a problem with what I saw. Solid title. Easy recommendation.
Story
Cassidy, an exiled princess, meets a mysterious beauty and is instantly infatuated with her. It doesn't take much time to see that something is not right with Elowyn. What exactly? I won't spoil it, but depending on your ending, you may end up surprised.
There are various choices, that lead you to one of the eight endings.
The plot has problems with pacing and not everything is as fleshed out as it could be. This obviously can be expected from something so short. Still, I liked it, but you should temper your expectations. Without A Voice is not a big game after all.
Visuals and Audio
"Painted" backgrounds are nice, same as CGs. Solidly designed characters (I would welcome slightly more details on sprites). Certain arts have problems with proper proportions (necks, for example), but it didn't bother me that much.
The music fits the game almost perfectly. It's not anything special, but it does its job rather well. There are no other sounds though (besides textbox advancing). No voice acting either.
Technicalities
Zero issues.
EDIT: Voice acting added in v2.0, but I didn't test the quality of it.

Short, but not bad at all. Sometimes what you crave from a VN is a short and sweet experience and this did the job just fine. Writing was nice, art was good, the voice acting kinda stunned me with just how fucking fire it was -- did not expect that for a free game.
And yeah, it is free so there's literally no reason not to pick this up. And if you feel like it, buy the lil' DLC to give the devs some money. I'd say the VN is deserving of that, to be honest.

It is free and it is yuri, play it now and maybe even support the developer.
Quite wholesome and very well executed visual novel.
Maybe a little simple from story perspective, but it has a soul.

Without A Voice is a wonderful yuri VN with gorgeous art, intriguing characters, and a well-paced and dark (but not too dark) story. All for free to boot! Definitely recommend this VN.
One aside: Based on the content warnings I was worried this was going to be more intense/gory than it ended up being. That's a positive aspect for me, but it may not be what some players are after.

Wonderful story with lots of distinct endings, really love the dynamic of the couple and wish them nothing but the best.

No spoilers; just get it, it's such a beautiful story, I cried, I laughed, I cried some more. Even if you don't generally know if you'll enjoy Visual Novels (VNs) this is a perfect one to wet your palette and get an idea of if you want to spend money on other more well known titles.
