‎Dreams is a game that has a lot of potential in the future for both the creators and the players. The large amount of lessons are easy to follow for the creators and there will only be more fun in the future for the people who love to play. In addition, Dreams' ‎‎single-player campaign‎‎ is a must if you've bought the game due to the special playstyle. The only thing that could make this game even better is ‎‎multiplayer‎‎ and more cool creations from the Dreams community!‎

This compulsive genre-crossing title combines animation studio with design toolkit and social network as it teaches game creation

Opening a game engine for the first time can make you feel like you’re in a sweaty-palmed nightmare. But Dreams isn’t like that – not only is diving into the game engine and learning how to create stuff fun, you’ll also never feel lost in the navigation and controls. Moreover, it gives you access to a bunch of minigames that you can’t find anywhere else.

Taking Media Molecule's creative ethos to new heights, Dreams is a PlayStation essential. Booting the game up each time and having no idea what awaits is an intoxicating feeling. A remedy, forcing me from the rut of my predictable gaming habits to explore an inner creativity I'm often too lazy or wound up to let free.

There are no words that can accurately define my feelings towards Dreams. It's a title that has transcended everything we know as a game, becoming something completely new. Media Molecule exceeded all possible expectations by creating this wonderful tool, that if used correctly, will serve as one of the main pivots for content creators, game-design students, musicians, animators and many others throughout this decade. Dreams may be one of the last "games" to be released for PlayStation 4, but it will forever be immortalized as one of the greatest titles ever made in history.

Dreams is possibilities made manifest, and while Media Molecule needs to have a strong hand in curating that experience, its a perfect foundation from which to grow and evolve and I can’t wait to see where it goes.

After crossing the doors of the Sogniverso we can say that, once again, Media Molecule has managed to give life to an experience that reinvents the concept of video game and declines it in a dreamlike way putting it at the complete disposal of the many, potential dreamers. Dreams is an editor as powerful as it is accessible .

Media Molecule's latest creation is a beast of creation. Dreams is a game with a lot of possibilities that you will enjoy if you like to create, even though it requires your effort and time, or if you enjoy playing in the creations of others. With Dreams, all you can imagine, you can do it.

Dreams will be everything we want, in color, in black and white, in 3D, in 2D, with a relevant story. A world just for touring, will be our world, or our adventure in another's world. We are in charge, which is certainly the culmination of everything they have achieved so far. Congratulations to Media Molecule and deserves all the success you have with what we consider to be your Magnum Opus.

Simply put, there is nothing like Dreams. It combines magic and creativity in a world that you never want to escape from. Sure, some nights I sat on my couch trying to find something to do in it but other nights I could not put it down. I wish that there was more dedicated Media Molecule content to experience as Art’s Dream is over way too soon. However, give this game time and we will soon be experiencing the same quality content made by people all over the world. The possibilities are endless and even if you never touch the best tools, you will find countless hours of entertainment in the game’s Dream Surfing mode

As it stands, Dreams is an interesting experiment. It’s encouraging to imagine the world in which this game revolutionized an industry and opens the doors to more freedom for creative expression. Until then, it is only that: a dream.

Dreams is a game that could make thousands of games. You can find various innovative creations on this platform ranging from games, videos to music and paintings. The tool is easy to use for amateurs developers but if you just simply want to enjoy yourself, Dreams might not be the best choice.

Dreams is really something special. Frankly, I'd like to see other game development tools come with curation suites like this. It would change the way we look at game design. Now if only these dreamers could get paid for their work…

Even though we seldom see something like it in the video game industry, Dreams is a revolutionary title that should be a shining example to the other development studios. However, don't forget that the future of the title solely depends on the community and only the time will tell whether it will appreciate a title so focused on creativity like this.

Dreams is so many ideas at any given time. It is ambition given form, imagination given vibrant life and unlimited possibility waiting to be shaped with your hands. Unique and inspiring, there's no other game that even comes close to reaching Dreams and its intuitive approach to creating content and an experience that you never want to wake up from.

Dreams' story is only beginning. Never before have I had the pleasure of seeing a product that is so obviously flawless, with so much potential for future growth.
