Development

The game was renamed Before the Echo in 2015 due to a copyright claim from the makers of the board game Sequence. The developer of the game, Jason Wishnov, stated on NeoGAF that he did not believe the copyright extended into electronic software, but did not wish to risk legal proceedings, believing that the claim amounted to "bullying".[2]

Reception

The PC version received above-average reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[5]
