About

Dreamed Away is a story-driven action adventure RPG with dark elements set in France in the 90s. Play as Theo, a boy lost in a mysterious world. Explore a unique reality, duel against darkness and mind your choices.

Unique Combat

Instead of the traditional menu-based combat commonly found in RPGs, Dreamed Away features a unique, fast-paced combat system made of mini-games.

Challenge awaits you as every encountered enemy has different variations of dodging and time-based mini-games of increasing complexity.
With unique abilities and equipment, use strategy and skill to defeat enemies.
No random encounters.

Story

Ghosts, Phantoms and Revenants haunt Theo inside the catacombs and dark places where he searches for his sister. Always a step behind and never able to catch up.

What happened? What does it mean? Why is this place so familiar?

That’s how his journey begins.
