Echo – Our Voice is an awesome little indie RPG game.
It features a top-down perspective and pixelated graphics that’ll instantly remind you of classics like The Secret of Mana and even old-school Zelda.
You start out as an adventurer that has the need to prove herself by hunting down monsters and bringing back tons of treasure. It’s heavily influenced by JRPGs with the dialogue boxes and anime character portraits. Whether or not it’s truly a JPRG, you can clearly see the eastern influence this game possesses. And it’s awesome.
You slay enemies, solve puzzles, and go on side quests alongside your main quest.
Explore dungeons, mines, caves, fields, and towns as you travel around to different lands questing and helping people. Ther are over 10 puzzles and mini mages to play through.
The game features a skill tree that progresses with earned points for every time you level up (SP). You use these points to level up your skills with over 50 to choose from. Each skill is detailed with required levels, EN (mana) cost, cast time, cooldown timers, and elemental damage. Each character also has an Ultimate skill as well which slices the screen into fancy anime battle scene and has tons of eye candy for you to appreciate.
The characters also have individual stats that level up as well- you have stats like critical damage (CRI), final damage, EN (mana) cost, healing power, etc. The game has all the RPG elements you’d expect. It’s called the growth system and your characters’ abilities get enhanced depending on what you do in each boss fight.
Echo also features three original tracks in its OST and an original opening cinematic that looks absolutely stunning.
It’s made by a Taiwanese team called Nobody Studio and took over 7 years to develop. In is current build, there are about 3-4 hours of gameplay if you take the time to explore everything. You play with the keyboard and mouse and it offers configurable hotkeys as well as a difficulty system.
