Earlier today we reported on the new locally developed mobile MMO from The Grid.
Legends of Echo is essentially an massively multiplayer online game that is played on mobile phones, and links players together in a central game world that is based on the South African map. Players can explore, trade, build and fight in order to earn legend points, and climb a leader board.
Legends of Echo Fact Sheet
Legends of Echo sees five bloodlines – Air, Earth, Water, Fire and Industry – battling each other constantly for domination in the Echo, a strange and wonderful world parallel to our own.
The Echo is a world that is strangely familiar yet undeniably different, where the scientific and the arcane co-exist and where we earthlings can roam and rampage in an assumed form – all through the screens of our mobile phones.
Featuring exciting one-on-one battles in a multiplayer role-playing environment, Legends of Echo combines the best of location-based services, social networking features and online mobile gaming.
Players are free to roam the Echo – built entirely on South African street maps – to discover and forge weapons in preparation for their next battle.
In addition, players can trade with each other or interact via an in-game instant messaging system that harnesses the power of mobile social network, The Grid.
