Just Adventure's Alexander Tait delivers his decidedly direct dissection re Kheops Studio/The Adventure Company's "Echo: Secrets of the Lost Cavern", which gets a final grading of "B+"...
There is a wealth of historical information that can be accessed from the game menus. Remember this if you are a fan of the edutainment style of adventure games because there is precious little educational material in the game. This is not a grandchild of the Cryo edutainment titles such as Versailles, Aztec, or Egypt but don't let this put you off. Don't have any misconceptions that you are going to learn all about Paleolithic people and you will enjoy your ride.
I recommend that anyone looking for a solid adventure get out and purchase Echo. 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. I'm glad I played the game and look forward to more titles from Kheops. This game deserves a B+. |
