About Cult Of Echoes
Use echolocation to hunt your friends down in an asymmetrical horror game where sound is everything!
The Echolocation Killer
As COUNTDOWN, hunt your friends by tracking their soundwaves, collect scrap to craft deadly traps and weapons, and use your special abilities to outwit and crush your friends' hopes of escaping in one piece. Terrify your friends in proximity chat with a horrifically distorted booming voice. Light up your surroundings with sound by screaming bloody murder, or stay silent and stalk your prey in the dark.
The Cultist Survivors
Your friends done goofed and summoned an eldritch clockwork abomination into one of your bodies. Solve puzzles, craft tools and trinkets, and hide to survive and banish the COUNTDOWN. Silence is key, but simply hiding won't guarantee your safety. Solve cooperative puzzles to banish the monster back to its realm. Trip up the monster with traps and tools, place down tripwires to notify you when the killer is near, or distract them with remote-control cars!
Online Multiplayer
One player is COUNTDOWN, the others are survivors. Play with up to eight friends in a lobby, and either randomly roll for the monster, or step into the summoning circle to elect yourself for the curse!
