A journey down the memory lane! Lucid Dream Adventure review

Hey, there fellow readers! It sure has been a while since my last post, but please bear with me as the senior year has been quite rough. Gotta prepare things for the university, national exam, and tons of other stuff. So here I am with a post to fill this young blog, this time, it's another game review!


So one time, I was scrolling down the play store when I accidentally found this game. I was excited to try it, especially once I see some previews of it, considering it's a mix of point & click game with an RPG style to it. So here we go!

The game was made by Dali Games, an Indie developer who made it as a finalist in 2019 google play's Indie developers award. The game was released in early 2019 and has gotten many positive feedbacks from the players.

Storyline:

The game begins with a girl called Lucy, who lives with her mother after her father died. They live in a small broken house, with a gloomy interior to it. Every day she spends her time rolling in her wheelchair (she can't walk) with her mom. But lately, her mother has been acting very strange. She hasn't slept for quite some times and she started to spend all her days just doing chores in silence. This makes Lucy sad and worried over her mom. She later discovered that her mom has been getting a series of nightmares, lucid dreams. She is very confused about how to help her mother until one faithful night...



One night she will attempt an act to gain her mother's attention, here all you need to do is to gather things to boil the cattle, so it will make some noise. But sadly, her action doesn't bring any attention, as her mother just keeps on doing the chores. Afterward, Lucy will return to her bedroom and you just have to gather some dreamcatchers so you can hang them on the window. Just follow the clues given around you! After that, a kite will appear at the window, then you just need to grab it and it will take you to another chapter and another place.

  • Li'l trivia: If you look closely at one of Lucy's drawing, you'll see a drawing of her father. By the looks of it, I can conclude that her father was a soldier who died in a battle.
From there, the kite will take you to a row of rooftops. There a miracle happens as Lucy can actually walk there(But thinking about it, It's actually just a dream, a lucid dream). There you will be facing a puzzle, a unique puzzle indeed. Basically, you will meet the moon who will ask you for help to remove a fallen satellite that landed on one of his eyes. You'll use the clouds and the steams to remove the object.



After you got rid of the object, the moon will take you to a dream planet. A planet he believes where the dream master rests on his eternal sleep. There you'll solve some puzzle and afterward, you'll wake the dream master out of his sleep. He then asked you to sign a contract, for her not to stop searching the nightmare that has been haunting her mother. Later on, Lucy agreed to this and she wakened up from her sleep.






Once Lucy signs the contract, she will soon be  awaken from her sleep by her mom. After that, both of them will visit the an old cemetery, in which her father was buried. There you can see the ambiance, how sad Lucy and her mother was after her father's death.


Back in her room, Lucy will reassemble her mother’s mirror and then you’ll just have to stick the oneicromancer’s drawing on it. After that, darkness will consume most parts of the room, and from the shadow, The oneicromancer will appear to remind Lucy of the journey ahead. He will lead you to another realm, a unique one, not to mention peculiar. Most of the time, you will be solving puzzles her and there until you meet the dream predator. The predator was once the king of the realm, but after he lost his sight, he decided to descend below the radar, he hides and simply keeps himself alive by using his magnetic ears to attract metallic dreams. Once you give him an eye (the one you got from the owl statue) he will ask you to leave, but before that he will give you his magnetic ears, which you will use in another puzzle.
            









But just at the verge of the game, where the hypes have gathered so high, the developers decided to stop the 1st episode here, with a pop-up saying “to continue Lucy’s journey you can play the 2nd episode! Available in google play store”. So guess that’s all for the 1st episode.

But the story is not over yet! There are still 2 more episodes to go(unfortunately I haven't got the chance to play them), for the ratings, I give the game a solid 8.5 out of 10! Both gameplay and storyline is just magnificent! Can't wait to play the next games!

Seems like that's all for now. Have a good you all!

Samsara Room Game Review! Another Fine Puzzle!

So I'm back again with another post, sorry for the long break! I had been running into some troubles lately and it took me quite some time to get back into blogging. Today I'm bringing you another game review, the title is Samsara Room! Samsara Room is a game developed by the Rusty Lake, the same company that developed the Rusty Lake and The cube Escape game series! The game was recently released to the wild a few weeks ago, specifically April 29th, 2020, which is a remake of its previous version. This game was released to celebrate Rusty Lake's fifth anniversary! (Way to go guys!!!) With that settled, now let's move on to the game! Storyline So from what I read, the game is set after Rusty Lake: Roots and it follows up the event of William's rebirth. Truth be told, I don't fully understand the full story of the Rusty Lake series, as I haven't played them all. Unlike the Cube Escape series which I have played in sequence. The first thing you notice in...

Working on a Terrific Masterpiece! A Death Palette Game Review

Howdy, folks! It's me again, the author of this lonely blog. these past weeks have been filled with semester breaks, something that I truly enjoy after all the hustle in the 2nd semester. In that break, I have played many games, some of which I'll review and bring here. Now, let's get into one of them, the menu for today will be a review of Death Palette. Enjoy! Death Palette is a puzzle & story based game with horror elements to it. The game was developed by Sleeping museum, an indie developer based in Japan, and was made available in google Play Store in February 2020.

Giving company on a long lonely trip! A Terasene-Girl X Sun Game Review

Girl X Sun-Terasene is another developed by the Sleeping Museum, the maker of the Death Palette game. The game is developed with Unity engine and is available to play in mobile through google play store. The games was released back in May 2018, but it has earned more attention recently following another update that translated the game in English, somewhat the same case with Death Palette. The game has been downloaded for over 50.000 times and it weighs around 30 MB, so its indeed a light game for your device. The game can be considered as one of the story based adventure/single player platformer (?) game, although its not that kind of hard/more common action.  The Story It started off with a girl who is taking a walk at night away from a huge castle. What makes it unique is that the girl is carrying an umbrella. We are then told of her condition, that she can't make contact with sunlight as it may harm her, hence the umbrella. But why is she taking an umbrella at night? It's be...
