How it feels

A moody, hand-painted noir mystery where you piece together clues in a sleepy town that slowly reveals its eldritch underbelly.

What players say

Players describe Echoes as a slow-burning Lovecraftian murder mystery that grows more disturbing as it goes. The story starts as a detective investigation but shifts into a supernatural conspiracy, though some find the ending abrupt and note that choices mostly affect presentation, not outcomes. The minimalist art style changes dramatically in the final chapter.
