Very solid game, although I wish it had a final QoL patch. A bit limited in the technical department. + Beautiful and colourful environments. + Very cute character designs. + Fantastic soundtrack. + Hilarious dialogue. + Every character has many different builds and item combinations. + Has Steam Cloud support. It's a good game to play on the Steam Deck. + You can unlock a (limited) randomizer mode when you first finish the game. ~ The overarching story is nice but there aren't that many events related to it. I wish it was more developed. ~ There are no categories or filters and so many items and cards to use that it can get a bit tiring to navigate the menus. ~ The currency is very limited even in the late game. You can't have all seven characters fully built at the same time so you have to spend time changing items between them (not that it matters too much because you can only use four at a time). ~ If you want the 100% completion you may need to backtrack quite a bit, which is not a problem, but the characters move very slowly in relation to the size of the maps (didn't feel bad until I had to backtrack). ~ With a controller, the cursor and the camera can be moved independently but the camera is "leashed" to the cursor and stops at the border of the screen. If the map is too big you may need to move both at the same time. ~ To exit the game the intended way you need to teleport back to the central nexus area first (the exit game button changes to the teleport button when in a different area). ~ It's yet another game that seems like it could have 21:9 ultrawide support with minimal changes but doesn't. Almost everything seems resolution-agnostic. The menu backgrounds are animated repeating tiles, it has drawn vertical sidebars by design, and 90% of the UI is not in contact with the screen borders. - There is no post-game content, and the late game is limited to two long-ish boss fights, so you don't get to fully enjoy your complete character builds that much. Eagerly awaiting to see what the studio does next!

What a fantastic game, super cute and addictive. And hard! Especially if you play on Nightmare difficulty and/or with Hardcore mode enabled (perma-death). For me there are three highlights: [*] Pacing : After the first introductory chapter, you arrive at a hub area with access to four chapters to choose from. You can freely enter and leave any chapter at any time , meaning if you get stuck on a fight, you can always check if progression is easier in another chapter and grab new items, money, and leveled-up stats for when you come back. You can't go three minutes without finding new gear and cards that entirely change your team dynamic. [*] Build customization : It's so in-depth and balanced. Throughout the game you unlock seven characters and their personal 41 cards (28 common, 10 rare, 2 legendary, and 1 ultimate). Your team can be any combination of 4 characters decking 15 cards each. You can trade cards between characters at a cost of Trade Points that increase with rarity. Couple this with equipment that modifies the basic mechanics of combat, of stats, or of cards, and you get an incredible ocean of possible character builds and team synergies . [*] Writing : It's silly. Almost every single character, playable or not, is a complete airhead. So every dialogue is a funny, absurd interaction. That complements the mood of the visuals and soundtrack. I mean, you play as a band of girls battling pillows in Dream land, it's silly from beginning to end . My only complain would be the lack of some UI quality-of-life. I commend the devs for implementing a Help buttom that allows you to inspect any information during combat, but the screen where we buy items doesn't show what each character has already equipped, so if you're restructuring the whole team, there's a lot of back-and-forth between menus. Nevertheless, the issue didn't detracted from how much I enjoyed every second of my playthrough .

[Edit:] ***9/10!!!!*** Dream tactics is a fantastic indie tactical RPG with enough depth and care put into it that I'd recommend it to anyone. It has an incredibly charming story with writing that did make me genuinely laugh out loud a couple times, or at least shake my head and groan in comedic pain. The music is befitting each individual world you explore, and only the first world felt repetitive to me, though nostalgic when you revisit it. The combat can be as sophisticated or simplistic as you desire, and the card system does allow for mix & matching between your party. Though I never gave anyone anyone else's card, there were possible combos that I theorycrafted that could have worked well. Quite literally my *only* gripe with the game is being unable to undo an action (just a move before an action). There were times I misclicked during a bossfight, and it made me have to restart from several minutes back, and as a really busy guy, it's infuriating. Moreso when it's simply just my cat flopping down on my keyboard and mouse and sending an action to nowhere. That aside, I cannot recommend Dream Tactics enough! I don't play many games in this genre or even artstyle, but I was unfathomably blown away. Spectra Entertainment is a small team, but they've easily made one of the most memorable gaming experiences I've had in the last several years. Here's to your success!
