About This Game

Experience a stunningly detailed 3D recreation of the Supreme Court of Canada. From the grand courtroom to rarely seen chambers closed to the public, every corner holds history, and every story you uncover will shape the writer you become.

You play as a maintenance worker who also dreams of becoming an author, roaming the building at night in search of inspiration. As you make your way through the quiet halls, you hear mysterious echoes — fragments of conversations from citizens, attorneys, and judges whose lives once crossed here. These voices, along with scraps of paper and hidden mementos, reveal emotional and often surprising stories that become the seeds for the characters in your own novel.

• Explore hidden areas of the Supreme Court not normally open to visitors.

• Hear touching testimonials based on real events that changed Canadian rights and freedoms.

• Learn about Canada’s legal and cultural history through intimate, human perspectives.

The choices you make — which trait you give your characters, what inspires you most — shape the novel you create. At the end, compare your story to friends and see how your interpretations differ.

Perfect for fans of contemplative and narrative games, Echoes of the Court offers a relaxed pace where exploration, listening, and discovery are at the heart of the experience. Whether you’re here for the history, the human stories, or simply a meditative game session, you’ll leave with something to reflect on.
