Dreamed Away

Spettaccooollooo!!!!!!!

I like the atmosphere of the game. It is nice. I also love the pixel art of the game, it is charming. I kinda find the dialogue a bit slugish, but other then that it is a really fun game

Glad I kickstarted it.

We (me and my best friend) first played Dreamed Away in the form of its Demo in 2023 when Steam recommended me as a big Undertale and Omori fan. In the spirit of those two games Dreamed Away is another pixel art indie game and after playing through the first two chapters so far, a master piece in the making. The story is intriguing yet simple enough: After an eventful night full of horsies, cookies and chaotic chess with your mother and little sister Louise you as playing as Théo begin what is supposed to be the next school day with the startling revelation that your sister disappeared. Having to brave through a creepy, dark place full of ghosts, eyeballs and scary, lonely girls that don’t know how to ask for companionship normally you start the long and complex journey to discover what’s happening and where Louise went. The game starts off a bit scary and eerie but it’s nothing one can't handle, and I say that as someone who is very easily scared. On top of that the humor and beautiful and idyllic environments and journey Dreamed Away follows up with, totally make up for reawakening every Omori player’s PTSD. The combat so far is not unlike other turn-based combat systems I’ve seen before, but definitely creatively designed and executed in different turns of either dodging your enemy’s patterned attacks or playing a bit of a rhythm game where the directional buttons have to be hit on time to defend and avoid being hit. With all the foes having their own patterns and quirks, the fights never feel repetitive at all and outside of every enemy attaching out of nowhere jump-scaring the living soul out of me, I found myself looking forward to every encounter. Back to the pixel art: This game is immensely beautiful. Every tree, rock, the characters, the environments, they’re all just pretty and I find myself stopping and looking around and taking screenshots very very often. The world is super interactive and rewards your curiosity and effort to explore it. Funny and witty dialogue boxes when checking different objects or hidden items that are rare and very helpful only found by you checking every nook and cranny. Puns, amazing writing and easter eggs are spread all over the world, just waiting for you to discover and enjoy them. Seriously, the writing is great. The dialogue never feels weird or like you are reading characters, it works very naturally and sounds like things people actually say in normal conversations. On top of that, all the characters are very interesting and leave you eager to talk to them to see, what more eerie or hilarious things they’ll say. The last thing for now is the music: This game’s music is super catchy and just as beautiful as the art. Not to spoiler too much but if the Hotel’s theme music won’t get stuck in your head, then I don’t know. After all what is your quirky Earthbound-inspired Indie RPG without its beautiful music, am I right? I recommend this game to everyone who loves them their turn-based, pixel, indie RPGs, fairy tales and story-based adventures, beautiful pixel art with a great retro feel and I can’t wait to finish Dreamed Away and its compelling story and do a fuller and more detailed review and have very high hopes for it!

Important Note: Unless you plan to immediately cook your food, leave the gas knobs on the stove closed and untouched.

SUPER joc, recomand, arata precum earthbound de pe nes. Looks and feels like earthbound, but with better graphics, wish they can sit in game, maybe they can add it and more weather effects. THIS is 10/10 game!

Несмотря на отличную картинку, интересный сценарий и азартный хантинг ачивок, в игре хватает спорных моментов, которые негативно сказываются на общем впечатлении

This is such a good games there are many secrets around every corner at this time I've only gotten two endings but this game is well worth the time and money if you can give it a try.
