## What is Echoes?

Three Echoes is a hand-painted point-and-click mystery and detective game: a quiet escape-room adventure with hidden-object scenes, locked boxes and a case board full of red string.

Some houses forget. This one remembers.

Nora has come back to her late grandmother's house to empty it and sell it. Behind the dust sheets and the stopped clock, the house is still keeping a secret from one April afternoon in 1958, and someone has been waiting for her all this time.

Then open the second case. A night-shift archivist receives an unmarked parcel: the belongings of a girl who "ran away" in 1987, and a note that says "They closed it too soon." Pin the evidence, connect the clues, and find out who closed the file, and why.

Then light the third. Iris Cheng travels to an old village in southern China to sell her great-grandmother's lantern shop, and to keep one last promise: light incense for Qiaoyun, a name missing from every family tablet. Hold up a red silk lantern and the house shows what was washed away one summer night in 1936.

STORIES FROM ONE ARCHIVE
• The House That Remembers: a bittersweet ghost story told through rooms, letters and memories.
• Cold File: a cold-case investigation through police reports, tapes, photographs and a corkboard of red string.
• The Magpie Lantern: a gentle ghost story of lanterns, shadow puppets and a promise kept for ninety years.
• 10 chapters each, with multiple endings in the first and third stories.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Search lamp-lit hidden-object scenes. Find everything for three stars, then replay your favourite rooms with the objects in new places.
• Open code locks, dial locks and puzzle boxes. Combine items and use them where they belong.
• Solve hand-made puzzles: sliding blocks, jigsaws, ciphers, radio tuning, grave rubbings, tap codes and more, each built into the story.
• Connect evidence with red string to make deductions and open the next lead.
• Touch the right object and the past flickers back into the room.

MADE TO BE CALM
• Ink-and-watercolour art and an original atmospheric score.
• A three-step hint system that nudges before it tells.
• No jump scares. No timers. No account.
