Recreational Dreaming

Recreational Dreaming is a casual, essentially peaceful game about exploring unusual places and shooting at glowing, tingly things. You carry a flashlight and camera, and your actions and inactions have no bad consequences.

Places and sights

The game includes a cozy cabin, an underwater swimming pool, an aurora borealis, a sunrise and an “I Ching Chamber.” You can encounter a giant TV falling from the sky, a house-sized psychedelic anemone, a mysterious cave mouth in a cliff, a room of gems that seem to glow with a shared inner light, and a mountain range whose ghost can be summoned.

Other sights include big, dopey fish, harmless stingrays, one glowing pink giant hawk, cherry blossoms fluttering through mist from a nearby waterfall, and magma balls that lead you through the earth. The world also features bubbles, snowflakes and living paint.

Things to interact with

You can pop ceramic bulbs, knock over marble columns, chew on hundreds of words, and encounter hundreds of paper airplanes in bombing formation and hundreds of numbers. The game also includes the Respooling of Wooden Objects, the transformation of material into solid light, and the opening of a void through which a massive undulating sphere is born. An ICBM and nice tunes are also among its contents.
