About the Game

VANQUISH THE NIGHTMARE, RESTORE THE DREAM


Winner of the Reboot Develop "Visual Excellence" award.
Winner at the 2021 WN Dev Contest as chosen by Epic Games.

Bygone Dreams is a high fantasy action adventure with RPG elements set in a surreal dream world.

The dream land of Lume, under the protection of its matron deity, is being threatened by a terrible Nightmare. Embodying the spirit known as Wa, you are the world's last hope for survival.

To aid you in your quest, you must seek out the world's Guardians - powerful creatures worshiped and revered in times long before the corruption seeped in. However, the task ahead is anything but easy, as the Guardians themselves succumbed to the Nightmare.

FEATURES

  • Explore the dream-land of Lume, a vast world full of mystery and danger.
  • Face dozens of epic bosses standing in the way between you and the salvation of the Dream.
  • Fight your way through the game using a combination of melee weapons, ranged weapons, and magic. Customize your equipment to suit your play style.
  • Experience the story on Normal difficulty or get ready for an exceptional challenge on Heroic mode - a ramped up difficulty featuring revamped boss fights and additional Heroic-only bosses.
  • Unlock handcrafted higher difficulty levels.
  • Experience the epic story with over 2 hours of fully voiced cutscenes.
  • Show your mastery in special time trial and no damage boss challenges.



The game will take players on an inspirational adventure featuring elements from Slavic mythology and medieval Bosnian folklore. An epic orchestral soundtrack will set the tone of the journey in over 50 original songs full of traditional instruments and melodies.

Take a leap into the world of Bygone Dreams and prepare yourself for an unforgettable experience!
