    I hope this game get English option sooner. Tbh I believe its narrative is on the same level of To the Moon series. This is a total story driven game. Experiences in the past that we young people never heard of, funny and sometimes deep dialogues (I really hope it does not lose any humor sense after translating), plausible twists, realistic dramas in a nursing home (or in the life itself), brilliant ideas to deliver the changing of perspective, all of these motivated me to go through its…

    (I'm not confident that my Chinese will do this review justice if I wrote it in Chinese, so I'm choosing to review it in English. Yes at the moment this game is Chinese only). It felt like "To The Moon" but it factors in the reality of Alzheimer's told in a true Chinese setting. Very well written, the graphics are also quite quirky. Overall a game that's full of personality.

    Final/Solo Mix ofc puts Transformation in Sho's fight but Uzuki/Kariya get Long Dream instead of Emptiness And which to my memory just doesn't play in the main game fights now. there's nearly double the tracks cool but they just shove them all in and scramble them & don't let you do much about it

    30 days of awesome RPG battle tracks! Normal battles, boss battles whatever. Day 2 - Long Dream (The World Ends With You) "Are you ready?" "Watch yourself!" Still one of the many bangers from this incredible game youtu.be/bnt-SEg9J9Y?...

    This is a touching, yet light-hearted tale of a retired postman trying to keep a promise to his late wife while suffering from Alzheimer's. Gameplay is simple, it is more like an interactive storybook that can be completed within a weekend afternoon. Despite the heavy topic of the challenges of dementia care, WildMonkey (the game dev) manages to make the story accessible without downplaying the mental toll on family caregivers. And as someone who has had to provide end-of-life care for a…

    Long Dream, developed by WildMonkey and published by Gamirror Games, is a poignant and beautifully understated narrative adventure that explores memory, loss, and the fragile line between reality and illusion. It tells the story of Zhao Sheng, an elderly postman who has retired from his long service and now struggles with the slow deterioration of his mind. His days are haunted by a lingering promise and a vivid memory of his late wife, Qi Mei, whom he believes is waiting for him beneath a…

    I built a horror game with my brother over the last 3 weeks: DIO SOMNUS. The concept was inspired by Junji Ito's "Long Dream". It was hard work, but we had a lot of fun paying homage to the genre! If you try it out, let me know which ending you got 😈 renasonas.itch.io/diu-somnus
