The Dream Machine: Chapter 1 & 2

surreal experience

I've played this game up until Chapter 4 but had to abandon it. Here are the main Pros and Cons: + Unique and a bit unsettling visual style + Intriguing story + (Mostly) Thought out and nicely made puzzles. At least from all those I've seen, there was only 1 instance where I've stumbled upon the solution just by being lucky enough and doing something, that by no means is intuitive or logical. +- 24 FPS cap. Could be a problem for someone but most likely is intentional for the more cinematic experience - Achievements aren’t working properly. You have to enable an experimental version of the game in order to get them - The way this game’s being sold is a bit confusing to say the least. Reminds me of the newest Hitman games or Life is Strange. - Minor animation glitches, which isn't that big of a problem. But the [b] [u] frequent random crashes [/u] [/b] and [b] [u] corrupted autosaves [/u] [/b] are certainly ruining the experience. The game itself worth your time, but it's technical condition is not something you can just ignore. I'd suggest [b] [u] waiting for remaster [/u] [/b] or just [b] [u] save often [/u] [/b]
