Evaluation
梦乡 The Dreamcatcher launched on August 21, 2020, following over four years of development. Shortly after launch, the developer released a bug-fix patch on August 28, 2020, and then a more substantial update (version 1.1.0) on October 9, 2020, which added chapter selection, extended the bad ending with new content, improved traversal, and made various art and design improvements. That October 2020 update represents the last developer communication on record. There are no unreleased DLC, no announced future content, no roadmap, and no post-launch pattern of ongoing major updates beyond that single post-launch content drop. The store description presents the game as a self-contained narrative experience with no mention of seasons, passes, or planned expansions. With no further activity since October 9, 2020, and no outstanding commitments, the game appears to have shipped as a complete product and received one round of post-launch polish before the developer moved on.

About this game
There is a saying that "what you think about in the day, you will dream of it at night." Your daily life will affect your dream. However what if the dream can also affect the environment when you are awake?
STORY:
You play as a young man who has just graduated from college and starts to earn your own living. One day in your mundane life, after having a strange dream, you wake up and find out that the things in the real life has changed. Somehow your dreams and the reality are intertwined. You need to travel into the dream worlds time after time, and make everything right again. In Sigmund Freud's theory, the dream is the fulfillment of the dreamer's wish. Then the question is:" What is the main character's wish?”
