Explore the dreams of others!
Delve into myriad fantastic worlds!
Balance life in the Dream, and in the Waking World.
Stroll around the geometrically baffling city for Dreamers,Escher's Pearl. Pull up a seat at the Reptile Room, where they serve up distilled memories and emotions and always have joy on tap.
Parley with the myriad strange beings that make the Sea of Dreams their home. Stay clear of the mighty Shamir dream worms who eat dreams and scatter ideas. Beware the hoards of hungry Mazzikim who feast on and farm emotion. Puzzle over the nature of the mysterious Shedim. Meet, befriend, or fight entities from dream and nightmare.
Every idea an emotion however half-baked dwells somewhere in the Sea of Dreams.
So keep your wits about you Dreamer, because not everything is as it seems

I've had an idea for a game and couldn't find the system for It until I stumbled upon this on reddit, I'll still have to try It but seems like exactly what I needed, Thanks!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm so glad you like the premise of my game. It is still in development but hope to have the fully finished PDF available soon!
I've always try to design the game I wish I could play. Once I had an idea: it was a game about dreams. I know, I know - it's not the ultimate idea, but until that game was finished, that idea kept coming time to time. The game that I wanted to play wasn't there yet. Now that I've read yours, that need is gone (at least for now). I REALLY WANT TO PLAY THIS! Thank you for sharing it. I specially loved the Lore and setting.
Wow what high praise, thank you! If you get a chance to play please let me know how it goes!
Nice - like all the zany dream worlds you created for everyone to explore.
Thank you so much! Glad to hear you like what I've put together so far. More coming along!
