Not what I hoped for.
This could have been a meditative puzzle game, but it ruins that potential with unreliable rules and unnecessary stress.

The world is occupied by Oscar Reutersvärd's impossible constructions. This concept is inspired by M. C. Escher's artwork, such as "Relativity".

Review Yungbeck 3/5 · Aug 11, 2022
hide the obstruction, and it no longer exists
Echochrome is a perspective puzzler set to classical music and minimalist visuals against a white backdrop. Simple and gradually more challenging puzzles will have your brain working and relaxing at the same time. A wonderful little title.
