Overview

An action game by SEGA, published by SEGA — single-player.

Steam’s own one-line description: “Life was an adventure for Ecco, the young dolphin. The ocean seemed endless with rolling breakers to race through! At high speed Ecco could burst through the waves leaping through the air – almost flying! Until one day, all of that changed. A freak whirlpool of air and water tore the life from Ecco’s home leaving Ecco all alone.” — developer/publisher text via the Steam store page.
