About This Game

Sleeping Dawn finally comes to VR! Awake in the grotesque world of Sleeping Dawn in first person, face creatures mirror of your deepest fears with your hands, dive yourself into this purely dark atmosphere and fight to dominate your unconscious fears and anxieties.

Procedural maze
Get ready to face this huge procedurally-made maze by looking for the exit. Each single game will be different from the previous one because, at your awakening, the maze will change all the paths.

You will have 4 tools to use with your hands:
  • Torch: the only source of light that allows you to rip fog and the shadows that populate the maze
  • Stick: the improvised weapon that gives the courage to face the most annoying creatures
  • Rocks: the best tool to distract enemies returning into the shadow
  • Chalk: the best friend to avoid getting lost between dead ends and crossroads
Distribute them based on your play-style but use them with caution because each is a double edge weapon.

Losing your way is as easy as losing your companions. Splitting the group is never an easy choice, but sometimes it may be necessary.
Your target is the same: manage to escape from this gloomy maze, but remember… the way out must be first opened. Two levers defended by two keepers must first be found and operated to make the exit passable.

Hypnagogia: fear became real
Keep in your mind where you are and be careful on each way you chose: even the right one is full of obstacles. Dark creatures and obscure presences will threaten your journey: how facing them or when avoiding them is your decision.
Learn from the mistakes you make, keep your fears down, study your enemies and cooperate. But remember... Time is your worst enemy: you have only few minutes to solve the mistery of the maze and find the exit.

The atmosphere is great when you first start but you quickly become aware of how the 7 enemies in the game work and the spook factor quickly wears off. The gameplay itself is limited; there isn't much you can do. Your goal seems to be to find 3 levers and get to the exit, but the way this procedurally generated map is designed along with the very limited amount of time you're given to do this makes the task seemingly impossible. You can only change between 10-20-30 minutes of time, but it's complete RNG how the maze is generated or whether you'll be close to any sort of objective that you need to find. The amount of time it takes to find stuff, while also navigate and leave markings behind leaves you with no time to actually play the game. What ends up happening is attempted speed runs, where you ignore all the scary stuff (i.e. the point of the game) once you've learned how it all works and you just run around avoiding stuff trying to get to the levers as fast as you can. This seem...

[h1]Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers[/h1] You can see my review & solo gameplay here: https://youtu.be/naqUcu1rx3E I don't recommend this game unless you have VR friends online to play with. Even then, I would say buy on deep, deep sale only. This is a horror maze / monster chase type game for VR. You can play solo, however, a lot of the fun I think is from sharing the experience with others online and having to "fight" together and coordinate your efforts. These are procedurally-generated mazes so there is replay value although you can get unlucky with the RNG. There are four tools to use and up to four players can play together online. You can use a flashlight, a bag of stones, a stick, and a piece of chalk. Each item has its use and you face different monsters, each with a different weakness. However, there is one monster that you just have to avoid or run away from. Your job is to look for the levers and get out of the maze. You can choose easy, medium, o...

Love the concept, not the execution. Performance is a little rough, animations are mostly terrible, the immersion isn't quite there, and the game just lacks a lot of polish. Played a few matches (easy/30min) with friends and we never found a single lever. Maybe we just don't know how to play, but I can't imagine finding 3 levers in 30 minutes. Honestly not sure why there's even a time limit... feel like the game would be better without one. We're all refunding unfortunately. I someone does a better version of this game because it would be really popular if done well.
