It’s a purely quality versus quantity trade-off, and right now, quantity is very far ahead of quality. Instead, it very much wants to be the sort of game that’s played repeatedly to farm for experience, as well as better gear. Dream Cycle isn’t meant to be a straightforward, linear game. The intro is a handcrafted affair that sets the stage and teaches players the game’s mechanics.īut here’s where the problems start.

The game honestly reminds me a lot of the Dishonored series in some ways, and anyone expecting it to be anything like Gard’s most famous work should absolutely not expect it to be. Dream Cycle is headed up by Tomb Raider co-creator Toby Gard, and it enters Early Access today, September 7. When it comes to getting people’s attention, having a famous name on hand is one of the better methods.
