About this game

Story

Echo’s Cry blends intense hack-and-slash combat with rhythm-game precision. Cut through hordes of enemies while striking to the beat, combining the thrill of fast-paced action with the satisfaction of perfectly timed inputs. Fight your way through a dark, gloomy world inspired by the Victorian era, accompanied by a beautifully produced original soundtrack that drives every battle.

Follow Echo as they uncover the long-lost power of music in a twisted, fallen world. After discovering a forgotten instrument hidden deep within their home, Echo begins a mystical journey to rediscover music’s lost magic. With each new instrument mastered, Echo unlocks powerful musical abilities that transform both combat and exploration.

Armed with the power of music, players must battle the demonic forces that have overtaken Echo’s home village—threatening to silence music forever.

Features

  • Rhythm-Based Combat
    Slash through enemies with light clarinet attacks to build Heat Points, then unleash powerful heavy strikes that deal increased damage. Save up to 6 Heat Points to trigger devastating drum abilities on special beats.

  • On-Beat Power-Ups
    At the end of each wave, collect a randomized passive upgrade reward that enhances your weapons with new stats and abilities. Stay in rhythm, as these bonuses only activate when you stay on beat.

  • Shop & Survival
    Spend your hard-earned currency at the local shopkeeper to purchase potions that restore health, armor, and XP, helping you survive longer runs.

  • Character Progression
    Upgrade your character after each level to boost core stats and grow stronger as enemy hordes become more dangerous.

  • Challenging Enemy Variety
    Face off against 7 unique enemy types, each designed to test your timing, movement, and evasion skills by dashing.

    Battle across 5 levels, push back the demonic forces, and free the townspeople from their grasp.
