No time for a review so I give this game a rank B.
Good game - if you have time give it a chance!
See my profile for more details about my reviews.
6/10
Mech-O-Echo Is, simply put, an AMAZING game!!!
If you were the kid who built every model in the pamphlet that was included in your Erector set, than this game is definately for you. Even if you're not naturally inclined toward tinkering there are hours of enjoyment to be had here.
The game's strength is in it's simplicity. There are around 9 basic parts.
They are unlocked over the first 8 or so levels and given a brief, but sufficient explanation.
You use these parts to build a machine that is ,(hopefully) capable of getting from point A. (The start of the level.)
To point B.... (you guessed it, the end of the level.) Actually they are not levels so much as they are ...hmmm, courses!
...Obstacle Courses...!!!
All of the levels are well thought out, while the game is a solid challange, it's also very do-able. You've got to be creative though and able to think outside of the box.
There's plenty to keep you occupied too!!! The Basic Game alone has 30 levels and then theres an additional expansion (included.) that I am wonderfully, blissfully, hoplessly stuck within. Yeah..., I beat the first 30 levels and felt like I was pretty good..... then the expansion stood up and bit*%slapped some humility back into me. It's truly on an entirely different level. Still...as unable as I currently am to conquer the expansion, I'm left only with a quiet determination that I Will get it soon enough!
That is really an accomplishment in my oppinion on the part of the game developers. I mean... I've been stuck on this dang level for nearly a month....play it every day, at least a little, Still stuck as stuck can be. . . yet I'm not frustrated... because it's not that kind of game that leaves you feeling victimized at the difficult spots. Just knowing that you've got to think of it from a new angle.
All in all I give it a 9/10 (which is as good as a 10 because I refuse to adhere to the belief that anything deserves a perfect score. Lest we are arrogant enough to assume that we have reached the highest plateau of our ability which, also, I refuse to believe in. ( the plateau...not our ability.)
Happy Building everybody!
I picked this up on sale and really enjoyed it. Like playing with legos, but with programmable parts to complete a task on most levels. I'd never played anything like this, and had a little bit of trouble understanding some of the early construction puzzles and how the pieces could work together, but once I understood what was happening I was able to build interestingly functional devices. There's a lot of freedom in what you can build. I don't know if the later puzzles were easier, but it seemed like it all started making sense to me around half-way through. so I guess that's to say: don't get frustrated too much early on because it might all "click" if something's not making sense.
Steam says I got 12.9 hours in my playthrough. I'm a casual gamer, did not use any guides or walkthroughs, and was completely unfamiliar with this type of game - so if you're like me that might be what you can expect from the 30 main levels of the game. I have not tried the sandbox or the challenge levels though. I looked at one of the challenge levels and it looked very tough. Overall, I thought the game was both creatively engaging and fun.
Originality and quality make this Indi a must have! try and see =)
Great puzzle game but it is difficult and I would only recommend it if your looking for a challenge.
8/10
Basically Robot Arena (you construct a robot) but instead of a fighting robot you make a robot which would climb over some obstacle, e.g. stairs, a wall, a narrow passage etc.
Pros:
- a unique idea (though arguably it's still much more fun to fight with robots in Robot Arena than just climb over obstacles here, unless you really are into non-violent games)
- interesting story
So-so:
- the puzzles are varied but solving them didn't feel satisfying. Most often I'd just either randomly stumble on a solution, or iterate on a supposedly incorrect solution until it would (clumsily) still perform the task. The whole puzzle is physics-based, so even with a wrong vehicle you can sometimes reach the goal. It would be great if the game had an option to show the solution which the author had in mind, e.g. after the level is solved.
Bad:
- there are some annoying useless animations which slow the game down, e.g. the character needs to step on a plate, then "covert" into a robot (long animation), then you can build the robot. In fact, the whole running thing with picking up the story pieces feels somewhat out of place since it's just a puzzle game with robots. The running part should have had more gameplay (not just running), or maybe it should have been taken out altogether. The story could just be told in briefings before/after puzzles or whatever.
A unique physics-based puzzle where you construct robots to climb over obstacles. You will like it if you enjoy physics-based puzzles and like to construct/engineer mechanisms.

Cannot recommend at the usual asking price. I actually considered a refund at under $2 on sale. Not sure how someone could justify the normal $18 tag. Only reason I am keeping it is I like the particle graphics of the little dude. Eye candy for the medicated.
Having said that.... The game concept is great (build a new machine and use it to solve puzzles you are faced with). The graphics are pretty pleasing. The actual gameplay is just weird. There is no flow to me. It feels like a game that was designed to play on a tablet but the devs amped up the graphics to make the price higher and to appeal more to PC use.
Playing this game is like trying to fuck. But your partner keeps stoping to check in and make sure everything is going ok... just fucking get on with it!
This game is full of fuckery. Not the good kind.
Okay, so this one is kinda complicated. It's a good game. Basically, you have to build a little machine to help you get past certain obsticles. Sounds good, right? Well, not really, because the physics is this game are totally garbage. It's so hard to explain. You got wheels with way too much friction. If one of your parts scrapes anything, it will send you flying (maybe even off the map).
Another huge problem I have with this game is that fact that they never seem to give you enough parts to let your creativity run wild. I get the fact that they didn't want to make the game too easy for you, but what they should have done was make a system that gives you points based on how many parts you used. Some things are just locked, and it leaves you with the feeling that there is really only one way to solve a puzzle (two if there is a bonus achievement for that level.)
The best things about this game are the price (when it's on sale) and the concept. I would like to see the physics get a major overhaul. In this game, or at least in the sequel. I did enjoy the first couple hours in this game, but after that it became a nightmare of poor physics and limited parts. I would recommend that you get this game on sale, or hope that the sequel (if they make it) is better. But in it's current form, and at full price, I cannot recommend this game.
A fun enough game, with a fairly predictable but otherwise engaging plot and some rather satisfying callbacks towards the end. Sadly, let down by often uninspired puzzles (they're, every single one, get over There - so much wasted potential. There could've been puzzles and tools for you to split apart and come back together, to transform, more freedom in how you approach problems) and the annoying controls (no undo button, no easy block rotation, annoying resets of the Free Camera button, etc).
Still, enjoyable enough diversion.
Great game with challenging and interesting levels. Intruiging story line and user friendly mechanics. Would recommend for anyone interested in puzzle and robotic games.
Good game with some fun little puzzles and problem solving. Not very long, but has potential if the devs release some more content.
MechoEcho is a fun construction/physics puzzle game with good graphics and a nice little story.
You are presented with an environment containing obstructions, and are tasked with creating a machine that can overcome them and reach the exit. The method of construction is intuitive, and the available building blocks are easy to understand and utilize.
At the time of review, the game contains 30 campaign levels, a handful of which are tutorialised. This would be my main criticism of the game, in that it took just 6 hours to complete. There is the option to replay levels to come up with different solutions, and a sandbox level is also available, but I do wish the game had more content.
The content that's there though is enjoyable, and I certainly don't regret buying the game. I just want MORE of it! :)

Now that 10 additional challenging levels have been added to the game (along with more of the story), the play time of the game has increased greatly! If anyone was worried they'd finish the game too quickly, that really isn't a concern any more. And it's a free update!
Edit: I have changed my rating into positive since the dev added new levels which are quite challenging. Be warned that the physics in the new levels seem to be a bit wonky though. It seems like you will spent more time on these 10 bonus levels than on the whole rest of the campaign.
Was a bit over the fence on how I should rate this. The game itself is functioning good, with a bit of lack of comfort actions like being able to move multiple blocks without hacking them off first. The UI could use some work, but the physics themself work fine I think. Graphics and framerate were good, too. The story behind the campaign is good enough to keep you engaged with the puzzles, but you could also completely ignore it if you just wanted to play the puzzles.
What pushed me over the edge towards a negative review was the lack of content. The developer claims that you will need 10 hours for the campaign. This is not true. I beat the campaing in about 3.7 hours, which is too little playtime for the money asked. And I suppose there will be others that are faster. Most solutions are obvious at first glance and the few ones that aren´t are spoilered by either the trailers or the game itself.
I haven´t tried the sandbox yet, but I didn´t buy this game for the sandbox. If I just wanted to create amazing constructions I would rather recommend Besiege, which is cheaper and has more options. I was waiting for this because it promised a good campaign with hard nuts to crack. Which it doesn´t. It also doesn´t contain an editor for levels or a workshop for players to share.
I will change this review to a positive one if either the game becomes cheaper, more levels get released or an editor for more levels gets added.
If you are however new to games like this you will probably have a harder time and thus get more playtime out of it, so you can probably check it out. Could also be good if you want a valuable game for your child to learn and train spatial imagination.
Solid.
i just tryed out this game i love the idea and the look but the graffics are not as nice as they seem still you can't even play it
i tryed all kinds of methods i normaly use and its a bust framerate is so bad i can't even move the avi maybe il try again but for how this is all i gotta say about this game hope the fix this major problem
Amazing atmosphere and just beautiful. I am really looking forward to sinking my teeth in some more of the puzzles. The world is just sucking me in.
