The game presents an epic storyline of knowledge and history, breathtaking music and ambiance, and a beautiful, photo-realistic world to explore steeped in a rich back-story of factual information from one of the earliest time periods in human civilization.
-
Perhaps the most unique addition toEcho is its documentary database.
-
The in-game music was a semi-prehistoric rendering that was appropriate for the certain settings in which the game takes place.
-
It is a charming title that is far from flawless but will provide 10-15 hours of gaming that will be unique and enjoyable from the beautiful graphics to the novel puzzles to the striking soundscapes.
-
The premise is totally original and the presentation is flawless, and you can’t help but leave the game knowing more about prehistoric man and the time in which he lived.
-
For twenty bucks you could do worse. Get it, play it, and enjoy it. Heck, you might even learn something.
-
Sadly this particular adventure seemed to be on the short side. Keen adventurers will probably polish this one off on only a few sittings.
-
Playing Echo is fun, but the game is fairly short, and the puzzles aren't always interesting, although many of them are engaging.
-
It is beautifully crafted, with only a few noticeable issues. If there were one real flaw to the game, it would be its length – it's too short! It was over somewhat abruptly, and I found myself wanting more.
