Very worth playing in the middle of Echo, but I'm writing this review considering it as a standalone pilot, and from that perspective, this is nice in that it shows off the characterization and setting, but there's not much to chew on here. As a completionist, I ran through this multiple times even though much of it is just repeating the same content ad nauseum, and that was kind of a grating experience, but it is definitely worth it if you have decided to take the plunge into Echo. Having foreknowledge of the characters and who they become, and questions I was asking myself about how they came to be that way, is what made this worth playing.
