Echoes
Now has distinction of being "the cheapest game on the PlayStation Store" following price cut.
May 12th 2010 – Today Halfbrick is happy to announce the permanent price drop of their action-puzzle game Echoes for PlayStation Minis. Released in November 2009, Echoes became a critical success garnering a Metacritic score of 79 overall and a cult fan following.
Since the release of Echoes, Halfbrick has launched a total of four PlayStation Minis. To celebrate, a permanent price drop down from $2.99 has now taken effect in both USA and Europe. PSN gamers can now download Echoes for just $0.99 in the USA or €0.99 in Europe. It is fully playable on both the PSP and PS3, and the bargain price point makes Echoes the cheapest game of any kind on the entire PlayStation Store!
Players control Charlie, a girl transported to a dream world while studying art, and finds herself in a series of bizarre and surreal levels. To complete each level, the player must collect crystals and avoid the deadly Echoes which spawn and follow the player’s previous movements. Gameplay quickly becomes fast-paced strategic action as more complex paths are taken and the Echoes begin to close in!
