10 itemsAbout the Game

Explore disparate dreams connected via photographs, films, retro games, and more. Each world presents its own atmosphere, puzzles, and items to collect which can take you further into the dream.

Like any dream, things can turn sour quickly, with one misstep sending you towards the darker side of the dreamscape.

Use the unique mechanics of the various frames and items you gather along the way to overcome obstacles in novel ways. As you progress you will piece together fragments of deeper dreams.

The camera is one of the more powerful items you will come across, allowing you to create your own frames where and whenever and return to them at a moment's notice.
