Dark Echo. Follow your steps into the freedom

Hello everyone! Today the game to review is pretty particular so i'm gonna try to do my best. Today i'm gonna talk about the indie game Dark Echo made by RAC7 Games.

Dark Echo is a unique puzzle game with horror elements,you enter in a dark room,the only thing you can see are your steps,so you have to light the room by walking.Every step you make,will create an echo,that let you see the room and where to go just with the sound,to find the exit.

Gameplay: To win a level,you have to find the exit,but it's all dark and you can't see anything,so you have to walk and make some noise to see where to go,but the things got more interesting after some levels.After some levels some monsters will make their debut and will start chasing you,if they hear you.So you have to stay quiet but at the same time,you have to make some noises,because you have to light the room,and if they hear you,better start to run.There are many ways to distract them,if you press the spacebar you can hit the ground with your feet and make a huge noise,so you can send them to the destination you want and then run away behind them,or after some levels you can throw "a rock" i think,to distract them so you can pass.Of course you have always to pay attention to the sounds you make and think when you can make it to light the room.So a pretty challenging and intelligent gameplay.

Talking about the Graphic and Sound,The graphic as you can see from the screenshot is pretty simplistic,but for the type of game in my opinion is a really good choice. Instead talking about the audio,it's really well made,if you play with your headset you will feel the anxiety,the fear and  you will hear every little noises in the room,it makes the game a unique experience to try.

Final comment with pro and cons:

Pros:

• A unique experience to try
• Really immersive 
• Lot of levels to complete and a light mode

Cons:

• Some levels are a bit repetitive and boring

Bought it for just 1 Euro during Steam Summer Sales,and it was an awesome and cheap experience to try,really immersive,dark and also scary sometimes thanks to the awesome work with the audio.

Thanks for reading my review,as i said already,i'm not a professional reviewer but just a guy with a passion for videogames,so feel free to share some opinions and critics to help me writing better next time!Also sorry if there are some errors but i'm italian.

Freedom Fall. Escape the tower and save the princess! Maybe..

Hello everyone! This is my very first review on this blog and today i'm gonna talk about the indie game Freedom Fall,from the Stirfire Studios.

Freedom Fall it's a 2D platform game about a little boy called Marsh,who wake up in a dangerous tower as a prisoner ,and his only way to escape is by avoiding all the traps and the dangers without dying.Your enemy is the Princess,a sadistic girl who want you to die so hard.She will write in the walls during your adventure to insult you and telling you her story and why you are here.

The gameplay is pretty simple and classic,you have to dodge all the traps by jumping,but during your adventure you will unlock also other equipment like bombs and wings to help you.Also sometimes you get some special events and boss fights!Now about the duration,the game is  pretty short,you can complete the entire game in about 2 hours or less also in hard difficulty.In my opinion it's a bit too short for a platform, but if you are a completionist  you can still hunt and get some achievements to complete it with a 100%.There are also different endings,not so rilevant but still different ones to try,and also a bonus level to complete.

                                           

        

Now let's talk about the  Soundtrack and the Graphic.The soundtrack is pretty good,i loved the songs during the gameplay,they are  frenetic and with a "indian" twist in them.The graphic as you can see is hand-drawing,with a cartoonish style,pretty simple but still good!

    

Final Comment with pro and cons:

Pros

• A different type and interesting story 
• Fun and challenging platforming action 
• Really good soundtracks and nice cartoonish art
• Different endings

Cons

• Too short for the price.

Well thanks everyone for reading my opinion about this game,it was a good surprise to me with is charming and different story.Of course i'm not a professional reviewer but just a guy with a passion for videogames!
