Our take on Lilly and the murder in a dream
Rather than using a long adventure structure, this horror game compresses its premise into roughly 30 minutes and makes the ending the main point of variation. The dream setting replaces a conventional world map, while the final choice determines Lilly’s fate.
What is Lilly and the murder in a dream?
Lilly and the Murder in a Dream is a horror adventure game made with RPG Maker.
