I have always thought that the dream world was a gateway to another world. A world in which we can either be safe, or scared.
It is the latter of the two that makes this game so appealing tome & many others by playing on our fears of the unknown. This game tackles the subject of insomnia & what it would be like to live a waking dream.
Without giving too much away, what quickly becomes a story of a young girl looking to treat her woes of sleep, turns into a nightmare where you will find yourself hunted & stalked from your very home, all the way to the hospital.
This game has some of the best cinematography I have seen from Vidas games & the scares are great. There is one point I screamed so loud I think I gave the neighbours next door a heart attack. You can clearly see that this game is a step up & in the right direction not only in narrative but mechanics also. A fleshed out inventory system, facial animations & a great story to explore. Are we in a dream? Or are we awake? Play & find out!
Well done Vidas! A+. Much love for this game :)
