Dreaming Sarah

Cute game, it's simple but charming in its own way. Definitely inspired by Yume Nikki and other games (there are a couple of small citations to other games and things), but it has its own structure and narration. Not super polished and there are some minor glitches (I had to close/reopen the game once because I couldn't progress, but nothing save-breaking as far as I can tell), but it's fine overall. Short and very cute experience, 100%able in a couple hours, which is a good thing. Recommended for its price or with a discount.

its hard to 100% it without a playthough guide

[h1] A Bizarre Dream World That Was Just Not for Me [/h1] [i]Dreaming Sarah is a very short 2D side-scrolling exploration game with light Metroidvania elements. You can easily finish it in just one sitting.[/i] [h2]🔋The Positives [/h2] [list] [*] [b]Decent Visuals[/b]: The graphics use a pixelated art style. It looks quite colorful and decent overall. [*] [b]Smooth Controls[/b]: I played the game using a controller, and the character movements felt very smooth and responsive. [*] [b]Excellent Soundtrack[/b]: The music is heavy and very well made. A great bonus is that you can add the Soundtrack DLC to your Steam library for free, which includes the tracks as 128 kbps MP3 files. [*] [b]Quick 100% Achievements[/b]: Getting all the achievements is very simple and takes only 2 to 3 hours. You just need to keep a guide open next to you to find a few secret achievements. [/list] [h2]🪫The Negatives [/h2] [list] [*] [b]Absurd & Confusing[/b]: This is one of those games where the story and the characters are intentionally absurd. Absolutely nothing makes sense. [*] [b]Random Navigation[/b]: The puzzles and map layouts are completely random. There are no explanations, no voiceovers, and…

Perfect psychological horror puzzle game. I recommend a guide if you feel lost.

good ost

For a moment I thought Sarah died for good, then I saw the end credits..no wonder there's another game called Awakening Sarah. I liked the game very much, the OSTs were pretty good and the worlds too, especially the last one where the old lady (I think that's Sarah?) is waiting for you, and also the items (or effects) are pretty unique too (looking at you, shell necklace!!!). 9.9/10
