  • Summary: Peace and harmony have reigned on Earth for a millennia, when the arrival of a mysterious foe threatens to destroy everything by altering time itself. Only a friendly dolphin called Ecco can prevent the evil force from twisting the very fabric of reality and enslaving the Earth forever. Taking the role of Ecco, you must use all your brains and skills to navigate a series of alternate realities and restore the timeline to its rightful place. There are four parts to the game (Paradise Island, Man's Nightmare, Dolphin's Nightmare, the Foe's Lair) and you must solve puzzles in each before the Earth can be saved! [SCEE]… Expand

    What truly set this game apart from the rest was its sense of actually being in another world.

    In spite of these kinks in its layout, Ecco provides a consistently smooth experience; you'll honestly feel like a deft aquatic mammal and experience the liberating, exciting things that compose a dolphin's everyday life.

    It was wonderful! Even though I can not pass "Chance of reckoning" I think the game is great! The levels are beautiful, especially "Hanging Waters."
