Welcome in Bad Dream: Coma. A point&click game where unique minimalistic art style creates an unforgettable and atmospheric experience. Travel through the surreal and disturbing dreamland where everything depends on your actions. You can't die but you can suffer greatly... TIP OF THE ICEBERG: The game is designed in the "action-reaction" way and there are no obvious choices. Beat the game once and then be curious "What if I would do it differently". Sometimes it's something small but from time to time you'll see huge differences. The smallest things can be most rewarding. DARK, SAD AND DISTURBING WORLD: Visit the place known from the previous chapters of the Bad Dream Series. Encounter well known creatures in their new form, or find the way to erase them from your memory and turn this dream to the peacefull nap. Read less

Ciekawy klimacik, nieintuicyjna rozgrywka

Grając w Bad Dream: Coma, bawiłem się całkiem nieźle, zagadki wymagające kreatywności i czasem odwagi, wpływ niektórych decyzji na dostępne zakończenia to fajna sprawa, tym bardziej jeżeli przez przypadek zrobimy coś czego nie chcieliśmy to od razu możemy zobaczyć czy nie popsuliśmy sobie naszego wymarzonego rozwiązania historii. Niestety z racji małego ekranu Nintendo, niektóre z zagadek wymagały przeglądania zawartości …

Grając w Bad Dream: Coma, bawiłem się całkiem nieźle, zagadki wymagające kreatywności i czasem odwagi, wpływ niektórych decyzji na dostępne zakończenia to fajna sprawa, tym bardziej jeżeli przez przypadek zrobimy coś czego nie chcieliśmy to od razu możemy zobaczyć czy nie popsuliśmy sobie naszego wymarzonego rozwiązania historii. Niestety z racji małego ekranu Nintendo, niektóre z zagadek wymagały przeglądania zawartości ekranu pixel po pixelu, nie wiem kto wpadł na pomysł ukrywania mikro elementów przed graczem i to jeszcze takich blokujących dalszy rozwój przygody. Generalnie gra bardzo przyjemna a motyw muzyczny i dźwięki niesamowicie budują klimat niepokoju. Warto sobie zagrać w ciemniejsze i mroczniejsze wieczory.

Bullet Point Review

PROS

  • Has a touch of that old-school pixel hunt charm
  • Dreary, somewhat spooky atmosphere is decent enough

CONS

  • Dumb story
  • Puzzle design is mediocre at best and gets worse as the game goes on, with the last few levels being borderline incoherent
  • Moral choices in a point & click game seem like a no brainer, but their implementation here feels …

Not My Cup Of Tea

Point-and-clicks haven't really been my wheelhouse since Full Throttle - I've missed a lot of the genre classics like Grim Fandango and Myst, and fully intend to get around to them. Games like Bad Dream: Coma, however, remind me that the genre may just not be for me.

Point-and-clicks haven't really been my wheelhouse since Full Throttle - I've missed a lot of the genre classics like Grim Fandango and Myst, and fully intend to get around to them. Games like Bad Dream: Coma, however, remind me that the genre may just not be for me.

The game has an assured art style and a narrative with strong elements, but unfortunately it's too often frustrating to come together in a way that makes the experience unique. Efforts to apply dream logic mean that puzzle solving is often arbitrary, without the cause and effect that makes puzzle solving so enjoyable. Instead of applying the tools at hand, sometimes the game expects you to wander back to somewhere you've already been to see what's randomly changed. It's jarring and strangely punishing - your choices have consequences, but you're rarely given clear context as to what choice you're even making.

Stylistically interesting but functionally flawed.

A point & click game where the protagonist is taken to a world a little different from the real one, in which each action taken throughout the game has a sequence revealing whether the protagonist is good, neutral or bad leading to one of the finals. I did the route of good and bad and without a doubt the world between these two routes changes dramatically.

Picked this up for 89p on the Nintendo estore today. Was pleasantly surprised! Felt old school but not tired or derivative. I liked how it punishes you for clicking everything. I'm a veteran adventure gamer but even I'm guilty of that at times.
