Our take on Dream Walker

The likely sticking point is the core hidden-object and puzzle loop: players who want combat or open-ended action may bounce once the game settles into searching through nightmare scenes and solving puzzles.

What is Dream Walker?

Play as Carrol, a dream walker trying to rescue her husband from nightmares created by the Sandman, an evil spirit.

The story unfolds in a surreal dream world, where Carrol moves through her husband's fears and faces puzzles and hidden-object challenges. The game has 91 levels, more than 10 game mechanics, and 500 unique game tools. The vendor states that gameplay lasts 12 hours. Its focus is a story set among mysterious dream scenes, with Carrol's effort to stop the Sandman from taking control of her husband's mind and reaching the real world.
