Slumberland rewards curious dreamers. Beyond the critical upgrades, this dream world is home to many different types of collectibles that you'll need a keen eye and a sense of adventure to discover.
A Variety of Dream Domains
Every area in the game has its own unique identity, surprises, and secrets waiting to be uncovered.
Beautiful Art and Music
The hand-drawn, parallax background and tileset art for each domain pair with their own evocative soundtrack made by Peter Berkman of Anamanaguchi. Make sure to look for a Cassette Tape in each domain to unlock that song in the Music Player!
Familiar Foes
From the simple Burrchin that will bristle at your approach to the Boo-Hoo that will haunt nearby items and chase anyone trying to steal them. Each domain's cast of enemies will keep you on your toes.
Unique Mechanics
Each domain includes its own mechanical flourishes and surprises from the Toy Trains and Bouncing Platforms of Nightlight City to the Toggle Crystals of Crystal Caverns.
Unforgettable Characters
Make sure to seek out the dream denizens living in each domain, as they will all play an important role in rescuing Slumberland. In addition, each domain is home to a Guardian who will be able to help you reach the Palace to find King Morpheus, so that you can stop the Oblivion once and for all.
Play How You Like
Players Seeking a Challenge
With the "Challenging" difficulty option, you'll be expected to take advantage of the game's precision of movement to survive with only 3 hearts. Avoid taking damage and you'll eventually Rank Up, making the enemies of Slumberland even more challenging!
Players Seeking Adventure
The "Fair" difficulty option will disable the Rank Up system and offer you double health, allowing more leniency and room for mistakes. This is a great option for players who want to focus on exploration and adventure with less focus on mastery.
Or Fully Customize Your Adventure
You can even fully adjust and fine-tune your difficulty settings to meet your needs with options like triple health, invulnerability, and time scaling. These options are always available to you in the game's pause menu.
