A visual stunning game
The game is visually stunning but sadly it uses the same graphics with some very minor different through the game. The thing that made me continue and enjoy it was the challenges escaping the levels and how you can do it in different ways. The story is decent and the sound/music is fitting. Picked it up on a sale and it is worth it.

if the last part of 2001 became a game
it woud probably be like this. This game is so unique that you surely look up a lot of infos and vids to decide if it's for you. I did and it spoiled a good chunk of game for me. Because I could not get in with an open mind and experiment with what it actually means _to play against myself_ and how that plays out - gameplay-wise. This is a tactical stealth game, where you need to switch tatctics, take risks and lose. Clearing a levels is _not_ an option and it's not easy - even on Easy. The story is intriquingly vague and just adds to the minimalistic, artificial yet baroque design but you can piece it together, if you listened. To make such a game with so few assets, game-mechanics and dialogue (the voice actors are great!!) and with such a great directional sense, is a masterly brought together artwork that you should experience by yourself, if the concept appears even halfway interesting to you. I am glad I gave it a chance. Yet, this game definitely isn't for everbody and for all the greatness this little game achieves - this frakking thing needs a God/ Walking Sim-Mode!!

Beautiful, Clever, Frustrating Gem
Opening Disclosure: I own the Steam version of Echo, not the GOG offering. Echo's strongest points are its setting and storytelling. The laid back start to the game introduces you to the location and its two characters well. The visuals are great to start off with. When you get into the Palace proper they become phenomenal. The scenes are detailed, beautiful, and yet somehow oppressive. The game’s signature mechanic is both a great strength and a hindrance. While the game is centered on teaching or not teaching your opponents your tricks, the game will teach you what and what not to do in brutal fashion as well. The main character cannot take much punishment and the aiming and fighting mechanics are rough enough to where if you get into a tight spot that the controls can speed your death. Once you learn what to do and what not to do, the game becomes an enjoyable challenge. Until you reach that point, unforgiving is the only word that comes to mind as to how the game handles any mistake. Echo’s level pacing and its story pacing are all over the place. You will have a series of scenes that allow for lots of check points and then go for spells where you are begging for the opportunity to save. With some of the larger levels combined with the frequency of death, this design flaw can lead to frustration. The same can be said of the story. You get information dumps and then can go for a while before either character says another word to the other. Overall Impression: A solid overall C with caveats and warnings. While in no way a direct comparison, Echo strikes me as a game much like The Void.* There are going to be people who love the game for the bold and interesting ideas it presents despite its design flaws. Others will hate it or want to avoid it like the plague. *Nothing can really be compared The Void. It is a trip all of its own. If there is a game that can be compared to it, please message me with the title.

One mistake and you're screwed
Pros: 1. Visually awesome environment. 2. "Learning enemy AI". 3. Sounds are important. 4. Game for those who seeks challenge and can wait. I guess there's nothing I can add to previous comments about this. Cons?.. the only one con: 1. "Learning enemy AI". Some enemies are noticeably stupid. In the meaning - if they have to secure some spot - they will stay still until they spot you. Sometimes overall their placing on current level leaves you no choice in stealth ways, except only one. Even sometimes their placing forcing you to do specific things - rush, stealth, shooting. And of course they will learn it from you. IMHO it's design flaw. After completing the game you will unlock... lets call it "double memory" feature. And as for me, I guess, this thing must be right in the game from the beginning. Because yes, this will chane gameplay radically. Hints: 1. If you want to burn your a** - try play "loud and lethal" =) , but still -> 2. You can't kill all enemies on the level. "Restart" will resurrect all of them. 3. Use "blackout" (before "restart") wisely. THANK YOU, ULTRA ULTRA, FOR CREATING THIS MASTERPIECE! PS: Why still 5 stars? Because it's incredibly awesome game with pretty unique feature and even with limited learning AI - one mistake and you're screwed. PPS: And I don't agreed with Skirlasvoud - with this meaning of "repetitive" - every game can have such characteristic: FPS - you're shooting enemies, hiding while autohealing, level by level. Puzzles - you're solving puzzles, level by level. Stealth - you're crouching and hiding - or you're dead, level by level. Racing - you're racing a car, trying to win a race, level by level. etc... I hope you've got the point.
