The Beautiful Dream

I usually don't write reviews but this is definitely one of the best free games I've ever played!! Fell in love with the music and graphics at first sight. All high quality and full of traditional Chinese elements, which is always fascinating to me. Yes you have to try clicking here and there to get the right color and move on, but it's much better than a lot of adventure/ point&click/ HOG games I've played. Because the HINT is extremely helpful and your actions are LOGICAL! The hints may not obvious at once and a little interpretation is required, but that's exactly what makes the game more interesting. The poems are well translated and connect well to the graphs and gameplay. Honestly I am actually welling to pay for this game, if the price is not too high and the gameplay is slightly longer. Also it would be great if there could be a Chinese version and if soundtracks were available. Did I mention there's a function to take screenshots when playing and also a collection of beautiful wallpapers is unlocked after completion? If you value visual quality and background music of games and enjoy peaceful and relaxing gameplay, I would strongly recommend this game!!!

This is a very short game, took me about ten minutes to complete, but it is a very fun, and definitely a beautiful dream. I still wouldn't think this game would be free, but it is. There is beautiful music and art work, and truly takes you a romantic love story in Japan. The puzzles are fantastic, and the poetry throughput the game is marvelous. This was worth my time for sure. Download this game because it only takes 30 minutes or less out of your time, and it is worth every bit of that time. Experience this love story and just relax while playing it. If you decide to download this, enjoy!

This is a very beautiful game, with nice graphics and a mysterious story. For the people complaining that they don't know where to tap should shut up. I mean, it seems a bit random and you're just tapping places for colors and such, but it's LOGICAL once you figure it out. So in order to solve the puzzles, you have to think a little more out-of-the-box and in depth. The two main things that bug me, however, is how short it is and the tapping random places thing. I completed the whole game in about thirty minutes(not bragging, this is an issue). And people can get easily frustrated if they spend so much time just tapping. The story gives off mystery. Like, who is that girl? Do they know each other? Or did they just appear in one another's dreams? This could be a potentially good discussion and something to ponder about, but the way it's carried out makes it very hard to come up with a good theory. Like rip your hair out hard, not the fun hard that gets you thinking. It gives too much info and yet too little at the same time. Overall, good game but needs some polishing.

response required

Glowing reviews and interesting description piqued my curiosity to play the game. What I saw did look beautiful and had relaxing music. However though, the game was a frustrating nightmare to "play". I found the actual play very unintuitive and couldn't figure out how to advance in game. It was a miracle got past even the first level but that was only cuz I got upset and started tapping the entire scene like mad. The hint showed the wall was to be painted red but nowhere I tapped seemed to respond favorably. Turned out had to tap a very specific spot on the door to complete color transfer. The next level I was able to get the color white from fog and saw a lantern to store the white color in (although previous level was able to hold 4 colors without it if recall so idk why is needed). The hint showed was supposed to paint the tree pink from the animal resting below it but no where I touched was able to grab said pink color. Very disappointed to say the least...

I would give this game a 4.5 rating. This is one of the very few reviews I've ever written, but I felt this game needed for attention. Contrasted by the beautiful colors, artwork, and love story. You roam the world and paint it with colors you find. By doing so you continue to find the girl of your dreams. The music was lovely and story based upon ancient China. Only reason I could not give it a 5 star rating was because of the translations. When playing the game, use as many hints as you need. I recommend it for some parts.
