Terrible graphics, okay at best gameplay. If it was free yeah maybe? But personally I wouldn't recommend it.10 found this helpful
Boring
Broken Dreams is a small-scale but emotionally driven indie platformer that places equal emphasis on atmosphere, symbolism, and mechanical creativity. Developed by Mihai Morosanu and published by New Reality Games, the title presents itself not as a fast-paced test of reflexes, but as a reflective journey shaped by loss, longing, and the struggle to move forward. From the opening moments, the game makes it clear that its intent is to evoke mood and introspection, using a melancholic narrative tone to frame everything the player does on screen. The story follows Jack, a quiet and introspective protagonist whose journey is motivated by love and emotional pain rather than heroism or conquest. Instead of delivering its narrative through heavy exposition, the game relies on voice narration, visual symbolism, and environmental storytelling to convey Jack’s inner world. The themes of regret, memory, and emotional fragmentation are woven directly into the experience, making the narrative feel personal and inward-looking. While the story is relatively simple on the surface, it is intentionally abstract, allowing players to interpret its meaning through their own emotional lens rather than …
Is this really a serious game? Like, really? The worst is - there are some interesting tidbits of puzzles here and there. Man this could have been something.
Broken Dreams offers a captivating story with beautiful visuals and immersive gameplay. Though it has some minor pacing issues, the emotional depth and intriguing characters make it a memorable experience. Highly recommended for fans of narrative-driven games.
It's a plagiarized, poorly designed clone with weak mechanics and a laughable romance
