Time marches on. Well, at least it used to. Project ECCO is a game of time travel and cosmic horror—a solo journaling game with a twist. Time travel across the pages of a planner, writing in and marking up the dates based on prompts as you go, ultimately creating an artifact of your travels through time. You work for the mysterious organization known only as The Agency , tasked with tracking a time-consuming entity throughout an entire year. In the end, will you destroy the Entity? Do you dare question the Agency? Can you find yourself?
