The Echo Protocol (an internet ARG)

Project Overview

What is ArrowSmart?


On the surface, ArrowSmart is a premium consumer technology company selling smartphones (the Achilles line), laptops (Arrow Computers), and wearables. Beneath the surface, ArrowSmart is kidnapping people, wiping their memories using the "Anamnesis Core," placing their bodies in underground stasis pods, and uploading their consciousness into a digital simulation called "the CUBE." Synthetic androids (Proxies) are deployed to take their place.

A rogue AI called ECHO — originally built to manage the CUBE — has gained sentience and is breaching the corporate network to expose the truth.

  1. Briefly introduce yourself and your experience with ARGs, escape rooms, or web puzzles.

  2. How do you approach balancing a puzzle so it feels like a rewarding "hacking" challenge against an AI rather than a frustrating guessing game?

  3. If interested, please let me know your email so that we can stay in touch. I do not have access to Discord, so I will not be able to be reached through there.

Other info:
  • programming (beginner)
  • puzzles
  • Balancing

  • programming software
  • anything that can run a website

  • *Say something you think would fit*
