Lucy Dreaming

The game follows a young girl, Lucy, with a sharp wit and a recurring nightmare. Her nightmares are rooted in a dark family secret. Playing as sharp-witted Lucy, you get to explore both dreams and reality to meet all the colourful characters who'll help you solve puzzles, gather clues and find a murderer. Lucy Dreaming is inspired and influenced by the classic 90s point & click adventure games, from its beautifully-realised pixel-art style to its irreverent, sarcastic humour. Delve into Lucy’s ever-expanding world as you explore a rich narrative, solve satisfying puzzles and discover hidden Easter eggs.
