Edit: The developer has read this review and made changes to improve upon the issues noted here. Please read more current reviews for an updated take on the current state of the game. This game starts off promising! It looks and sounds great. Unfortunately, after the first 15 minutes the game makes some very frustrating design decisions and it becomes very tedious. Here is the game play loop: Walk for 10 minutes while being chased, stumble upon a puzzle that you won't understand, die, wait 30 seconds before you can try again, walk for another 7 minutes because now you know the way, stumble upon the puzzle, pray that you don't die, die, and you keep doing that until you figure it out. There is a sprint mechanic in this game but it is removed from certain levels for inexplicable reasons. Eventually it became too much of a chore so I decided not to punish myself anymore. Sorry Dev, I really wanted to enjoy this one. If you'd like to see my experience, you can check it out here: https://youtu.be/UNNc0vmr1IM

This game is.... ok. I have some narrative issues with it, but that's entirely a matter of taste. I want to stress that this game is, music aside, a one-man show, and I feel it deserves a lot of credit for what it is, given that fact. There are parts of the game that are sloppy, and poorly communicated, and half-baked. There are physics puzzles in the game when the physics side of things is not really implemented super well and a little clumsy, and there are a few puzzles where the answer is not unobtainable, but I'm just confused as to how they came to that conclusion. There are also some issues involving symbolism and mechanics, but that would be delving into spoiler territory. Though, the game DOES end on a "To Be Continued" and honestly, I don't think that's warranted, unless the dev plans on coming at this from a totally different angle. The story, such as it is, is perfectly serviceable and self-contained. Is the game fantastic? No. It's a clunky, messy, thing with a lot of indie jank in it. It also starts off way better than it finishes, but I think a lot of that is because the dev clearly started trying to get a little fancy and switch up the environments and mechanics. That being said, outside of one or two little areas that I found poorly communicated and frustrating, I think there's something here. It's worth about as much as a fancy coffee, and I think that price is fair. If you are interested in indie horror then you could probably do a lot worse. So given the binary nature of Steam reviews, I cannot really say this is something I would recommend to a friend, but at the same time, I say that with the caveat that I think it is a worthwhile curio if you're interested in indie art or development. I cannot say I loved the game, but I do think I'd like to see more from the developer in future.... if that makes sense.

This game made me more afraid of spiders and crystals now. The art style and aesthetic is perfect nod to play station horror that I crave. The music and the amazing sound effects just make your skin crawl. Honestly great start can't wait to see more.

I have played the first dream so far and it is fun. Very surreal. Had a bit of trouble with the mechanics at first but it got easier as time went on. The pixel graphics are nicely done. It wasn't as spooky as I hoped but there are still other dreams to explore so perhaps it will get scarier. Take a look at my dream 1 playthrough here: https://youtu.be/XsLn5o5aDdk

This game describes itself as an atmospheric first-person horror adventure, and let me tell you, you're in for a hell of a ride! Buckle up, and let your mind wander in this liminal universe where dreams are real and reality is nothing but a distant mirage. Or is it, really?

I would hate to be forced to have the same dream every day and to be killed and eaten by a big spider every night. I really liked the pixel art in this game. It is strange but even when you know this is just a game and it has pixel art you still get immersed and forget this is just a game. I definitely felt creepy playing this game and felt watched by something. I must say I liked the puzzle segments of the game and the whole creepy atmosphere and the notes telling you different things and all the blood writings on different places were also a nice touch. You will die. A lot. But the good thing is that there are respawn points when you reach a certain place so you don’t have to do the part of the game that you already figured out again. It is fun to try different paths but they should be made in such way that you can see them all before moving into other segments of the level because if you got lucky and pick the right one from the start without a trail and error testing them you can skip much of the level design. [h1]Bad things:[/h1] I didn’t like the running segments of the game as they didn’t really feel fair for me as I was never sure if monster is spawning before me or behind me or in one of the places where I can go or where. I also think that the lever puzzles in second level were really strange and had too few clues to be done. You also need a piece of paper or just remember all the places you already have been and checked in your last dreams to know where you can go and where you will find nothing new or die again. [h1]Conclusion[/h1] If you love spiders and running and drugs and puzzles this game will be great for you. Overall score 6/10

Fantastic game, very well crafted atmosphere enhanced by haunting pixel graphic visuals. Brilliant music and sound design. All together is a very solid package and a very satisfying horror experience.
