ECCO - The Tides of Time 03-20-13 05:06 PM

Hey did something hit my TARDIS?
The stunning sequel to the adventure puzzle game Ecco the Dolphin. This time we find Ecco living happily with his pod presumably in the aftermath of the previous space traveling alien butt-kicking adventure. The peace does not last long however as the alien queen has followed Ecco to earth to seek revenge, by taking his powers and destroying his best friend threatening the future of the planet itself. Ecco must now restore peace to his pod again save the world from a terrible future. Expect lots of dizzy time travel sequences and science fiction environments.
In terms of story it flows well from the previous title, the continuity is good and the characters all behave according to what you might expect from nature. It remains an adventure sci-fi based game but each map still contains puzzles which are required to be solved to move on. Aliens need to be defeated, mazes solved and friends rescued. There are even some decisions which effect how things pan out as you go through the game. The higher the difficulty you play on the more likely you are to spot villains earlier in the game and hence your likelihood of dying rises. Also the length of the game is significantly long at least by the standards of games from that time. There is a lot of hoping back and forth if you do not succeed.
However the difficulty and puzzle nature of the game can be frustrating making it less addictive to play than perhaps a more standard adventure game. Large maps, highly interactive environments and deadly enemies will see to you either cursing the dolphin or crying from annoyance. That is not to say that the game is not fun, it simply requires patience and a strong sense of logic.
The graphics are beautiful! They are not bright and colourful like some other games on the platform however we are playing in an ocean environment and the 2D graphics are good at portraying that. The details in the images though are perfect and when the need does call for colour ... Read the rest of this Review
