Bad Dream: Afterlife

The bad dreams games has a very distinct vibe, but people seams to have forgotten about the series, the first two entries in the series has 2000 and 1000+ reviews, but the three latest ones has dropped to low double digits, even if the receptoion is almost entirely positive ones, and that's a shame. Atmospheric creepy horror is one of my favourites in games so i really like this series. The artstyle is simple, but does have it's own identity, and is definitly recognizable. Gameplay is typical inventory puzzles with weird dream logic by design due to the entire theme of the games, but if you are allergic to moon logic, then you might not like this, even if this one was more straight forward than some of the previous games (or have I just got used to how the dev thinks and design puzzles). Fairly easy 100% with the chapter selection, there are some obscure things you need to do, but if you know what to do, you can probably get back to that point in a couple of minutes for most of them.

A wonderful point and click game. You'll need to use those little grey cells to get through but very rewarding when you do. When you're done you'll still have to puzzle out how to achieve alternate plays for most of the achievements. Good Luck, and have fun!

I loved every bit of it. All the references to previous games by desert fox ... and so many fun unique ideas. Just play all his games when you're on it, seriously, it's so worth the time and money!

Not once have I been disappointed by a Bad Dream game, and this one once again hit the mark for me. I sometimes wish more people knew about it because seeing only 30 reviews really shocked me! I think point and click horror games like this really are a great way for people that are scared of the horror genre but do want to try it out get into it, and it also has just the right amount of funny dialogue to come back to that lightheartedness that makes Bad Dream so Bad Dream.

I've been a fan of the Bad Dream series since 2017 (ish). I really enjoy this combination of weird, spooky and a little horror puzzle solving games, so I got hooked pretty fast. So this review is also for all the Bad Dream games. The only difference with Afterlife is that introduces more mechanics. Really enjoyed the chapters and a certain aspect that makes you think that the game will be over much fast. I also liked the differences in the art style. I loved the parallel between the real world and the game world. This "balance" was really something new and sometimes it makes you wonder things (especially the messages that you'll find through the game). I started the game asking myself if I am the bad guy and ended with some questions and good messages that were beautifully delivered by the game. The puzzles were a tad harder than the previous games, but that's what really gets you hooked on this series. The style is the same as in the previous games, but each new element really pops. Overall, I recommend Bad Dream: Afterlife, even if you're an avid fan of the games, or just a fan of these sorts of games. I actually recommend the whole Bad Dream series. It's interesting, it has a…

The story is not bad but some puzzles are so difficult to solve without the walkthrough.
