About Fantastic Dream

✦ AI summary

Fantastic Dream is a ten-minute narrative experience exploring a man's recurring dreams of a mysterious girl he cannot quite remember. This introspective story blurs the line between fantasy and reality as daily dreamscape encounters spark an obsessive longing tinged with uncertainty about his own mind.

A short story about ten minutes process.
——————————————————————————
I dreamed of a girl.
Meet, heart, hug, kiss, with her.
I can't remember her face, but still remember her temperature.

I want to see her again.

"It's just a man's fantasy."
I warned and laughed at myself.

But since that day, I've seen her in my dreams every day.

Is it that I'm so sick inside?
Or is there something affecting me that I don't know about?
I have no clue.

It's just that I'm starting to expect,
except to seeing her every day in dreams.

✦ AI summary

Fantastic Dream is a short visual novel that divides players significantly on its storytelling and presentation. Supporters praise its emotional depth, music, and atmospheric backgrounds, while critics point to poor English localization, awkward pacing, and dialogue quality that undermines the narrative experience. Players interested in visual novels with emotional themes might find it worth trying, though the localization issues and uneven writing suggest waiting for potential improvements or trying it at a discount.

Fantastic Dream is not a game, it's an e-book that's been dumped on Steam masquerading as a game. As a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay, it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print, which poses the question, "How did something this badly written end up on Steam?". When someone hoping to become an author is unable to get published in print, they spend $100 and dump their high school fan-fiction onto Steam, under the guise of a game. This is a really weird, creepy e-book about the developer obsessing about his imaginary girlfriend... this Ren'Py kitbashed construction kit ebook is so cringey and creepy it makes me wonder if we can take out restraining orders against bad authors just to try make sure they don't inadvertently publish any more cringe. It's badly translated, too, that makes it even worse. I wonder what Google Translate thought about all this cringe. Visual novels/e-books are tedious at best... imagine the best novel you ever read, be that Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy or 2001: A Space Odyssey or Twilight (if you have terrible taste in literature), but then…

A remarkable visual novel that explores the depths of human emotions and the power of dreams. It tugs at the heartstrings, leaving players with a lasting impression. While the pacing and the MC's actions at the end might raise some questions, the overall experience is an emotional and thought-provoking journey worth embarking on for fans of deep and immersive storytelling.

Not recommended. This short kinetic novel tells a story with a bit of originality and a lot of emotion. It has pleasant backgrounds and nice music to go along with the story. Unfortunately, the English localization needs a lot of work. It made it hard for me to get invested as several sentences are poorly written. For that, this one is a skip.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
