Amy finds her brother Thomas’s journals after his presumed death and begins to suspect his ideas about other worlds and lucid dreaming may be true. She explores the boundary between waking life and dreams in search of clues to what happened to him.
This point-and-click adventure has Amy explore real-world locations and surreal dream environments, inspect objects, collect items, and solve puzzles. In dreams, she can use focus to imagine objects she has encountered, applying them to obstacles and challenges.
Dream expeditions also bring turn-based fights with strange creatures, where weapons, healing items, and other resources matter. Completing expeditions earns Echoes to spend on Amy’s skills and the items she can imagine; dream layouts can vary, and secrets and multiple endings await discovery.
Players often praise the story and its connections to earlier games, along with the pixel art and eerie atmosphere. Many enjoy how exploration and puzzles combine with dream-based item use and turn-based, resource-focused combat. Opinions on combat are mixed: some find its strategy satisfying, while others criticize its difficulty and the grinding it can require.
Amy’s brother is dead. She hadn't even seen him in years.
Thomas has always been a little eccentric. Obsessed with lucid dreaming and the concept of other worlds. All a little too fantastical for a small town vet like Amy herself.
But then Amy comes across his journals. And what at first seems like the ramblings of a troubled mind slowly begin to seem more and more plausible. Maybe her brother was right about everything. And maybe, just maybe… he isn’t actually dead.
Deep Sleep: Labyrinth of the Forsaken is a point-and-click horror adventure from veteran developer scriptwelder, and a standalone entry into the cult classic Deep Sleep series. Guide Amy deeper into the world of dreams, using the power of her mind to shape her surroundings and overcome challenges and puzzles. Explore landscapes both beautiful and terrifying in your search to uncover the truth about her brother.
But there’s a darkness lurking within the mazes of these other worlds. It knows Amy is there. And it’s very, very interested in finding her.
The game features the exploration, atmosphere, narrative, and puzzles you've come to expect and love while also adding in a sneakily complex turn-based combat system, many items to be looted and used in various ways, and a skill tree to help you overcome these nightmarish challenges.
