One night, Bjørn witnesses a mysterious figure steal his parents’ dreams.
Determined to get them back, he follows the thief into a strange and beautiful dreamworld, a place where wonder still lingers, but nightmares are spreading. What begins as a search for the Dreamthief becomes a journey through Bjørn’s own fears, where darkness, loneliness, the unknown, and death take shape as creatures, places, and impossible challenges.
The Dreamthief is an isometric action-adventure inspired by the visual warmth and emotional storytelling of Studio Ghibli, and the exploration-driven progression of classic Metroidvania adventures.
The world of The Dreamthief is divided into distinct zones, each built around a childhood fear. Travel through coastal paths, strange forests, lonely deserts, frozen landscapes, corrupted castles, and the darker layers of the Nightmare Realm.
Each area is more than a backdrop. Its enemies, puzzles, atmosphere, and mechanics are shaped by the fear it represents. To move forward, Bjørn must confront these fears, not by simply destroying them, but by understanding them.
At the heart of the game is the Dream and Nightmare Rift system.
Bjørn can open and close rifts between the dreamworld and the nightmare realm, changing the world around him in real time. Environments transform, enemies behave differently, structures shift, and puzzles evolve as the boundary between dream and nightmare is broken.
Rifts are used throughout exploration, combat, puzzles, and storytelling, making them a central part of how you experience the world.
The Dreamthief combines intuitive action combat with exploration, secrets, and ability-based progression.
As Bjørn gains new powers and items, previously unreachable paths begin to open. Hidden areas, upgrades, memories, and mysteries reward players who return to earlier locations and look closer at the world around them.
The game follows a Metroidvania-inspired structure where exploration, combat, and progression are closely connected.
The Dreamthief is designed as a game that can be experienced across generations.
For younger players, it offers a magical world full of mystery, creatures, and adventure. For adults, it carries a deeper emotional layer about childhood, fear, growing up, and the dreams we lose along the way.
It is not built as a children’s game, and it is not only for nostalgic adults. It is meant to feel like an interactive storybook — something parents, children, friends, and players can discover together, while each finding their own meaning in the journey.
