Lucid Dream Adventure

I don’t typically write reviews, but this game warrants one without question!!! From the music, to the graphics, to the story...this has everything I look for in a point and click/puzzle/adventure game! The odd strange landscapes and characters, as well as the Easter Egg characters and homage to stories of old are great! The puzzles are challenging but not frustrating and the rewards that follow are worthwhile! I was instantly hooked from the beginning and might even give it another run! I hope this developer does more games of this nature and quality!!!

This would be a five star review, if the game played cleanly. Even with the glitches, I’d love to see more from this designer. The free introduction gives you a good chance to test out the game, and if you unlock the full game you’ll get plenty more story and puzzles - some of them fairly complex. The surreal nature of the storyline means you need think outside the box for some solutions, but the mechanisms of the puzzles are pretty standard. Navigation is no problem, and the story is interesting w/ lots of classical lit and art references throughout the game. There are only two major issues: One is that using the hint guide can cause the game to crash, and for a few of the puzzles, you may need it! Problem two happened with an in-play glitch toward the end of the game. It left the game active but my character invisible (& unplayable). I rather than leave the game, I chose to restart the level not realizing how far back that would send me! So, fair warning: While new play areas have to load pretty often, each chapter is far longer than the load screens would make you expect. If you encounter a glitch that doesn’t crash the game, I suggest you try exiting and restarting from “continue” first to avoid losing a lot of progress.

On the one hand, decent puzzles and beautiful artwork! On the other, several fatal bugs during play that gave fleeting error messages (I wasn’t able to get screenshots) that crashed the game, plus a maddening glitch in the sound where leaving the game turns off the sounds. Killing the app and restarting does restart the sound... but every time gets painful. (Iphone 11 pro.) A few of the puzzles (the door maze, for example) i only solved accidentally, and still don’t understand the reasoning behind, but overall this was really beautiful and enjoyable. The storyline doesn’t entirely make sense, in exactly the ways that a dream SHOULDN’T make sense, which is really kind of lovely! A solid point and click with a lot of heart behind it and a lot of mixed cultural influences. It was definitely worth playing, and I’ll be interested in seeing what they cone up with next!

This game is great, my comments would echo previous reviews. Glitches abound. The music and sound really add to the environment; too bad they keep cutting out. Restarting the game helps sometimes. Fatal errors are overcome by restarts. If only real life were like that. Lucid dreaming can be so. Great entertainment, thought provoking, story with depth and heart, multiple levels, reminds me of Tormentum. Please keep those bug fixes coming. I would really like to finish this game. Poor Lucy seems to be stuck walking on forearms. As soon as level (or scene) starts, Lucy is walking forwards non stop, until she stops moving but her forward steps continue. I can get her to move left with multiple clicks, but she keeps turning around and continues marching to the right. Restarts didn’t help this time. Update: thank you for fixing that final bug. I did not go back and check earlier ones, but Alice is no longer stuck. I look forward to your future endeavors.

This game is extremely beautiful and dark, has a great “creepy” theme full of life and adventure. I immediately bought it without any hesitation after the free trial was done. At stage 8 is when it got really buggy on me and would force quit every 3-5 minutes. Now, it won’t let me continue after stage 8. It would pop up an “error” screen which I have taken a screen shot of. Please fix or I will be forced to request a refund. UPDATE: I got my refund after about 2 weeks because though someone reached out to me, they never fixed it. I was still stuck at stage 8 with an unclear popup message. Just play the free trial and enjoy how beautiful the game is. Don’t bother buying the game and waiting for them to fix it. They won’t.
