Ecco Tides of Time 

 

So many people have told me Ecco The Tides of Time is an awesome game. So many people told me it is worth the time and money. So I purchased and played this retro game with high expectations. Ecco The Tides of Time disappointed me big time. This home console game is cryptic, confusing, and tough to get into.

Swimming around as a dolphin is pretty neat. Bashing into sharks, and getting hit by them is not so neat. Swimming in the 3D levels through the Atlantis rings is awesome. In fact that 3D effect is the best part about Ecco The Tides of Time. I wish there was more of that, and less of the linear 2D levels.

The graphics are nice in Ecco The Tides of Time. The music got on my nerves. The cryptic instructions left me stuck over and over again. It is no fun to play a game through thanks to a game guide. The design of Ecco The Tides of Time should have been better. This is the perfect game that should be approachable by casual gamers. But its not.

I would like to see the Ecco franchise come back. Give us more swimming around the ocean - that is fun.
