The Dreams in the Peacock House

This felt like a literal fever dream because I kept falling asleep while playing (not out of boredom lmao, just tiredness). Due to that I unfortunately most likely missed some subtext, but enjoyed it regardless! I wish I'd examine storepages properly, so I could've mentally prepared myself for this being typing-heavy, however I survived it.. The gameplay is quite interesting; although the typing sections might take some time to get into, the overall progression structure with the episodic VN sections is very nice. Honestly the story felt personal and managed to represent some complex themes which I wasn't expecting, considering the otherwise nonsensical presentation. I absolutely loved the graphics and the music, which establish a very pleasant surreal, dreamlike, simultaneously serene and eerie atmosphere! I only wish that the music was more frequently present, since certain parts felt overly silent. Very intriguing and beautifully designed game! Also the Steam url includes "6934", congrats to the dev

An enjoyable psychological narrative game with some light puzzles (and some incredibly impossible sliding puzzles). The game is drowning in surrealism and melancholy and is incredibly beautiful for that; the art outside of this is just gorgeous, the soundtrack is lovely and the storytelling devices are well executed. Not the most profound tale of self discovery in the end but more than makes up for that in the way it delivers its message. Lovely little experience.

A 1-2-hour text-based surrealist piece. Not bad, 7/10 More weird surreal games: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45665580 part 2: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/46219602

Dreams in the Peacock House is a very short (<1 hour), surreal journey. Puzzles are simple but the narrative and visuals are strong. it's strangely moody, at times funny, always reflective.

Played this in one sitting, took exactly 1 hour but it felt a lot longer. Great little game that feels retro in all the good ways. Would have wished for some music or ambience during gameplay, got a bit quiet at some points. Other than that it's definitely worth a try if you're interested in getting a unique experience.

Pretty art!
