About Dreii
Experience the mesmerizing world of Dreii, the award-winning collaborative physics conundrum.
Dreii is a puzzling game about skill, logic and friendship. It subtly connects players in real-time across the world, to help one another in a battle against gravity.
- Build a Tower. The mission is simple. But once again, things get in the way... Explosives, thunderstorms, completely incompetent colleagues. Oh, and have you heard of this thing called gravity?
- Play with your friends. Dreii automatically connects all screens across all platforms. This means you can even play with your friends who have Dreii on their mobiles.
- Speak in 19 Languages. Dreii features an universal communication tool which allows players to speak to others, wherever they are in the world.
- Let's Dance! One of the best thing about Dreii is how it sounds. Each player has its very own instrument. Avatars work together to form Dreii's unique universal orchestra, creating a unique musical landscape, inspired by archaic instruments and ancient melodies.
- Uber Swiss Design. Dreii is designed to be as universal as possible. However, in a strange way it's also very Swiss, where it was made. Clean typography, minimalism with attention to detail. Maybe that is why it has won the European Design Award.

✦ AI summary
Dreii is a colorful, casual physics-based puzzle game that players find fun and engaging when playing with friends, though it suffers from a lack of online players, no local multiplayer option despite marketing suggesting it, and minimal replay value once puzzles are solved. The core puzzle mechanics are enjoyable but can feel frustrating in single-player, particularly with timed challenges, and the short length combined with the $15 price point leaves many feeling it doesn't offer enough content to justify the cost.
So we have dreii, This game is what id call super casual but tons of fun, best played with friends or just randoms if you like, its basically a selection of levels that each have a physical puzzle to solve, either solo or with help. It won't keep you gaming for days on end but it does make puzzle solving that little bit better and gives a great incentive to work as a team, at times it cracks me up I have to say, especially on some of the more difficult stages. The only downside to this id say is it's very short and once you know the puzzles it just becomes too easy, but for what it is its a lot of fun in a small package. Its definitely worth a thumbs up and a great little game to try out. See some gameplay here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfoTZJeaw_c30 found this helpful
While the core puzzle mechanics are somewhat fun, the game can be frustrating with a single player (especially the timed puzzles where a gust of wind will destroy your progress at the last moment). As of 2020, there are zero other players online, taking away one of the key features of the game (social multiplayer with seamless matching). Despite the trailer showing children laughing together watching the game (which did influence my purchase), there is no local multiplayer as far as I can tell (taking away the most obvious way to play as a family). My email to the developers asking about this dated 31 July has gone unanswered. There are improvements that could be made to keep the game playable in this situation e.g. adding local multiplayer, a hint feature etc, but the game seems to have been abandoned by its developers. Even a simple quality of life UI feature (the ability to restart levels with one click) is absent. The only way to restart the current level (something which you will want to do often as your blocks spiral into chaos) is to leave the level, ˆstart another level, leave that level,ˆ then go back to the earlier level. I don't see this one getting fixed either.3 found this helpful
It was a very entertaining game for me, even without the aid from any friends. However, due to the nonexistent replay value and the inbalance between this game's pricing and gameplay length, I don't think I can recommend this game to anyone. These two statements might even be why this game has completely faded into obscurity.1 found this helpful
