From the solo developer behind Cosmix comes Echoes of the Wild, a third-person exploration game about a mystical journey through silence, memory, and the echoes of a lost world.

Players take control of a majestic stag wandering through a vast, surreal wilderness long after the fall of humanity. As the player explores forgotten landscapes,

they uncover ancient runes—each one activating haunting audio fragments recorded during the final days of World War III in 2025.
What begins as a quiet walk through a dying earth becomes a deeply human tale told through the remnants of those who once lived, loved, and lost. With each rune discovered, a piece of the story unfolds—revealing how mankind faded, and what was left behind.
Will you simply witness the echoes, or find meaning in the ruins?

Key Features:

Discover runes that trigger voice recordings from a fictional 2025, each adding depth to the mystery.
A visually stunning world with lighting, ambient soundscapes, and soft toon design.
