Toxic Dream

Toxic Dream follows Tristan after he is pulled into a realm of twisted monsters and pursued by shadows that feed on anxiety and despair. Facing fear, failure and life’s burdens, he must go deeper into the nightmare, uncover the source of the darkness and fight his fears to end the torment. The story follows his struggles with anxiety, expectations and grief as he moves towards self-discovery and empowerment.

Explore corrupted memories

You explore levels filled with nightmarish manifestations of Tristan’s fears, searching for hidden secrets and powerful items. Abilities found along the way open paths through previously explored areas and help reveal the nightmare’s origin.

Fight the nightmare

Combat has you battle enemies with weapons, items and abilities, timing your inputs to dodge attacks. You face nearly two dozen unique enemies and bosses, each with their own deadly abilities. New equipment, combat skills from a skill tree and mix-and-match ‘Souls’ let you customize your build.

Rest in the forest

A forested hub offers a quieter place to meet different characters and take on quests. You can visit a shop to buy gear and unlock abilities and skills in the skill tree. Hand-made environments, fluid enemy animations and dynamic lighting create an atmosphere of serene dread.

Choose your experience

Difficulty levels let you choose whether to focus more on the narrative or combat. Ultimate Nightmare Mode challenges you to uncover the game’s true ending, with remixed and expanded levels, extra enemies, abilities and ‘Souls’. It also includes a post-game story that reveals the truth behind the realm of monsters.
