and then 
cco the Dolphin (1992) is a unique action-adventure game originally released for the Sega Genesis. The player controls Ecco, a young dolphin who is separated from his pod after a mysterious storm. As Ecco explores vast underwater environments, he must navigate dangerous seas, solve environmental puzzles, and use his natural abilities—such as sonar, echolocation, and high-speed swimming—to survive.
The game is known for its atmospheric presentation, beautiful ocean-themed visuals, and haunting soundtrack. Blending exploration, platforming, and light combat, Ecco the Dolphin stands out for its emotional storytelling and its focus on nature, isolation, and discovery rather than traditional arcade-style action.
