Story
In 1996, a peaceful European town is shrouded by a sudden, unnatural fog. As panic spreads, residents fall ill and the dead begin to roam the streets. With the town collapsing into chaos, only the "echoes of the living" remain to uncover the truth and survive.

Characters
- Laurel Reaves: a police officer who confronts the outbreak from the start. She’s determined to learn what happened to her father, with help from Marcus Wallace.
- Liam Oakwood: an ex-Special Forces soldier who arrives hoping to start a new life with his fiancée, Octavia Blade. Caught in the disaster, his priority is finding her and escaping the nightmare.
These protagonists’ paths intersect as they must cooperate to unravel the mystery and make it out alive.

About the developers
Echoes of the Living is made by a small, passionate team - a young couple who left everything to work full-time on the game with the goal of bringing the feel of 90s horror into a modern, polished package.
