About the Game

1. Overview

"Fake Dream" is a survival action horror game.

2. Story

You're visiting a town for work.

Tired and remorseful, you fall asleep while waiting for a train at the station.

When you wake up, you find yourself in a world that seems real, but somehow different.

As you battle the inhabitants of this other world, you must confront your own regrets and true nature.

3. Supported Languages

Supports 12 languages: Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, Russian, German, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, and Turkish.

4. Controls

Supports both mouse and keyboard and gamepad.

5. Tutorial

Conveniently designed with on-screen control instructions.

6. Playtime

Estimated for a first-time player: approximately 5-6 hours.

7. Continue

If you experience a game over, you can continue from the previous scene.

8. Difficulty

There are four difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, Hard, and Nightmare.

Easy: Enemy attack power and health are 0.5 times that of normal.

Normal: Standard.

Hard: Enemy attack power and health are 1.5 times that of normal.

Nightmare: Enemy attack power and health are 2 times that of normal. (Unlocked after clearing Hard mode.)

9. Carryover

This game allows you to continue playing with your previous data, carrying over your money, HP, equipment, number of slots, etc.

Difficulty levels can also be changed. You can start on a lower difficulty level and then challenge a higher difficulty level.

10. Weapons

Weapons are broadly divided into three types: firearms, melee weapons, and thrown weapons.

There are multiple types of firearms and melee weapons.

Firearms can be improved in terms of attack power, rate of fire, range (the degree of power falloff over distance), critical chance, and maximum ammo capacity.

Melee weapons can be used for both attack and defense. However, defense requires remaining durability (attacks are possible even if durability is depleted).

11. Armor

Reduces damage taken and prevents status ailments. Armor loses its effectiveness when durability is depleted.

12. Shop

Ammunition, recovery items, etc. can be purchased using the in-game currency, "Karma."

Firearms can be upgraded and melee weapons and armor can be repaired in the same way.

Karma accumulates automatically when enemies are defeated. You can also earn "Karma" by selling crystals scattered throughout the stage.

In addition to humanoid enemies, there are also animal and plant-type enemies.

Enemies that inflict status ailments

Armored enemies

Enemies that are only effective against specific parts
