ARDO is an immersive, audio-based puzzle game, inspired by an old board game from the 70s.
Use your voice to send off soundwaves. Listen closely as the ghostly echoes reverberate around you. They will let you deduce where the four charged atoms are hidden. Mark them all to win the game. Share your level with your friends and challenge their time.
The behaviour of sound in ARDO is similar to rays in the original game. The following images are taken from the according Wikipedia article.

to hide the orbs after some initial practice rounds - Every event triggers an echo, including some sound exiting the board, e.g.
- Detour B sounds 6 echoes
- Detour C sounds 4 echoes
- Detour D sounds 3 echoes
- Sound is travelling at a constant speed and covers the board in one second
- Spatial audio lets the echoes sound from their actual locations, making them detectable in 3d space
- The longer a sound travels, the quieter it becomes
- The further a sound is away from your character, the more reverb it will have
