Overview

False Dream invites players into a disorienting world where reality blurs with the subconscious. As you find yourself trapped within a dreamscape, your primary tool for escape is a camera. The core gameplay revolves around identifying and capturing 'anomalies' – elements that deviate from the expected reality – by photographing them. Successfully documenting these strange occurrences is your only hope of returning to the waking world.
