About Afterdream
Afterdream draws players into a lucid nightmare where the boundaries between reality and fiction blur. Enter a lucid nightmare. A haunted camera. A forgotten house. The deeper you go, the stranger it gets…
Armed with a mysterious camera, you explore a residence filled with unsettling atmospheres and hidden secrets. What does the camera see that you don’t? The journey challenges you to reveal the purpose of your nocturnal visit in a vivid, dreamlike setting.
As you move through shadowy corridors and eerie rooms, you’ll encounter ghosts and piece together fragments of the story. Explore eerie rooms, solve haunting puzzles, and confront the dream you can’t wake from. The strange camera becomes your guide, exposing unseen layers of the environment and allowing you to interact with objects that push the narrative forward.
Puzzle-solving lies at the heart of the experience. By collecting items and photographing highlighted objects, you gradually assemble the mystery, progressing deeper into an otherworldly tale that blends exploration, atmosphere, and discovery. A dream you can’t escape. A camera that sees the unseen. Welcome to Afterdream.
