About False Dream

You find yourself trapped in a dream. Capture anomalies, meaning locations or phenomena that deviate from reality, with a camera. By doing so, you might be able to return to reality.

How do I play?


Please take a look at the image below. Can you spot any unusual elements? It's a game where you find them and capture a photo with a camera.

Two Modes


There are two modes: Normal Mode and Nightmare Mode.
In Normal Mode, an anomaly will always occur at each time.
However, in Nightmare Mode, there are instances where no anomaly occurs. Is it that there are no anomaly, or is it simply that you haven't been discovered yet?
I recommend starting with the normal mode.

Playtime and content size


The expected playtime to clear the normal mode once is approximately 20 minutes to 1 hour and a half. It would take more than three hours to capture all anomalies. There will be a total of 81 anomalies occurring.

Save Data


Even if you stop the game midway, the anomalies you've captured are saved. However, please be aware that anomalies discovered using the radio (helping item) are not saved, so please be cautious.

If the Game Crashes


There are reports that updating the graphics card driver to the latest version resolves crashes.
Additionally, it may not work without a driver that supports DirectX12.
insufficient graphics card memory could also be considered as one of the causes. Please try reducing the graphics quality from the settings menu.
If it still does not work, please proceed with a refund.

Gameplay Videos and Streaming


Feel free to publish gameplay videos or stream the game without contacting the developer.

For Those Prone to Motion Sickness in 3D


Adjust the following settings in the configuration menu:
- Set the "Head Bob" slider to 0.
- Set the "Motion Blur" slider to 0.

Recommended Graphics Settings


Setting the Global Illumination to "High" or higher enhances the game's atmosphere thanks to UE5's Lumen feature. However, be aware that this can significantly strain your GPU, potentially resulting in slower performance.

If your FPS (Frames per Second) is low, consider lowering the graphics settings. After starting the game, pause it to see the FPS displayed in the top left corner. The FPS is adjusted in-game to range from 22 to 62.

If you don't know anything about the game, FalseDream is a Game that you have to Capture anomalies With your camera and Reach 9am. Anyway Cue-Chan plushie when? What i like about this game: • It isn't lazy FalseDream feels like actual love and care was put into it. • The objective is simple Reach 9am, that's it. • The anomalies Are great. The anomalies are interesting, and Cool. • There's plenty of Theories to Do Like, Who's "My boy" in the note? is it cue-chan? • Cue-Chan Cue-Chan. What i DISLIKE: Not much, but... • The game can use More Anomalies I mean.. Imagine how good it would be to have 76 more anomalies in the game.(157 anomalies) • Nightmare mode Could've Used more Like- 2 Anomalies the time There IS a anomaly, and No radio. • Some anomalies are REALLY subtle. Like- Ceiling anomalies, Unusable Hangers, Inside the fridge. Yeah.. •The Blood-Hand Anomaly SUCKS. Right now, the blood hand anomaly in the kitchen SUCKS, It locks the door, Making you unable to Leave the kitchen, Not to mention, it also KILLS you. Anyway, Great game, 9.5/10.

A cute little Exit 8 style game where you stay somewhere for the night and end up getting stuck in a repeating dream about the place. Can you spot enough anomalies caused by a playful ghost boy and his purple Furby to wake up?

False Dream is a focused first-person psychological horror game that transforms careful observation into its main source of tension. Developed and published by TenkaiGames, the game places the player inside an unsettling dream where escaping depends on recognizing abnormalities in the surrounding environment. Rather than relying heavily on combat, complicated puzzles, or constant scripted scares, it asks players to study their surroundings and notice when something no longer looks right. The result is an experience where ordinary rooms and objects gradually become suspicious because virtually any detail could signal that reality has changed. The camera is at the center of the gameplay. When players notice an anomaly, they must photograph it to register the discovery. This mechanic encourages more than casual exploration because players need to develop a mental picture of what the environment normally looks like. Changes involving objects, locations, or unusual phenomena can then be identified by comparing what is currently visible with what the player remembers. The concept is simple to understand, but it becomes increasingly demanding when uncertainty sets in. False Dream effecti…

Very fun anomaly finder game. 81 anomalies to find within your small apartment, with charming-yet-unsettling imagery and jumpscares. I really enjoyed the ones where Cue-chan has you play a game of hide-and-seek. Two hours worth of content for two bucks is a steal considering the polish on this game.
