What to study
Chained Echoes' signature Overdrive mechanic in its green (optimal) state: the top bar reads OVERDRIVE with the marker in the green zone, the turn order shows who acts next, and the action banner names the move being executed while the party HP/TP panel tracks all four members. The swamp arena and settled idle poses make the HUD the readable layer. Frame at 0:33 in the Launch Trailer movie (Steam). Disclosure: none.
