Echoes

Echoes is a life simulator with literary writing.

Born in a city you choose, in a decade you choose, to a family you don't. You make a choice. A year passes. Another choice. A friend gets divorced and calls you at four in the afternoon. Your mother retires and signs up for a class. You fall in love. You don't. You move. You don't. You bury someone. Eventually you are buried.

Every life ends with an obituary written from the choices you made, the people who loved you, the work you carried, the small specific moments that turned out to matter. When you die, your child becomes available to play.
