A time-bending marble puzzle for iPhone

ECHO

Every time you play, you create your next obstacle.

Guide a glass marble through a living arena. Complete a route and it returns in the next generation as an Echo that repeats your exact movement.

The arena remembers.

Open the Seal. Reach the funnel. Then face the route you just created. Each generation layers timing, strategy, visual chapters, Echo Masters, route-derived Mandalas, and late-game terrain onto the same simple gesture.

Play at your pace

Portrait play, drag-anywhere steering, local checkpoints, readable guides, and optional strategic relief.

Keep what you earn

Every fifth completed route creates a unique Mandala preserved in the on-device Mandala Vault.

Just the game

No advertising, no account, no tracking, and no internet connection required for play.

Support

ECHO is designed to preserve your latest completed generation automatically on this iPhone.

Where are Settings and Guides?

Both are available from the opening screen and from the icons at the top of the arena.

Why is there no sound?

Check ECHO’s Music and Effects controls in Settings, then confirm that your iPhone is not in Silent Mode.

Can progress move to another device?

Not in this version. Journeys and Mandalas are stored only on the iPhone where they were created.

Privacy

Effective date: September 17, 2026.

ECHO does not collect personal data, track you, serve advertising, create an account, or send gameplay data to the developer.

Data stored on your device

ECHO stores game preferences, best score, the latest completed-generation checkpoint, and earned Mandala images in the app’s private storage on your iPhone.

Sharing

If you choose Share on a Mandala, iOS shows Apple’s standard share sheet. You decide which app or person receives the image. ECHO does not upload it on its own.

Deletion

New Journey removes the saved journey checkpoint but retains preferences, best score, and earned Mandalas. Deleting ECHO from the iPhone removes its locally stored app data, subject to Apple’s device and backup behavior.

Third parties and children

ECHO includes no third-party advertising, analytics, social network, or account service. It does not knowingly collect information from children or adults.

Changes

If a future version changes these practices, this notice and the App Store privacy disclosure will be updated before that version is released.
