I started playing this whilst waiting for help from Big Fish (with the two Web of Deceit games) and knew nothing at all about it But I'm very impressed !! Mine is the "regular" edition with not much in-game help apart from a Hint button. [I haven't looked to see if there's a CE edition.] And you certainly have to use your imagination to solve some of the puzzles. So all good for the old brain cells I am finding it a very nice game indeed

The developer of this game is Specialbit - the same developer who brought us Haunted Hotel: Charles Dexter Ward CE/SE, a game I like very much. I haven't gotten to The Last Dream yet, but it is in my Purchase History. I look forward to it. Another game of theirs released last year on Big Fish is Stormhill Mystery: Family Shadows.There's a review of The Last Dream here.It looks like there's a "Developer's Edition" available elsewhere, but I am not sure what that entails.

I played The Last Dream in 2016 and really liked it! Realistic graphics and pesky minis, just the way I love a game to be. I was sorry it wasn't a longer CE. I played Stormhill last year, gave it my highest rating and it is slated for Replay.

I have other games already downloaded to play but you've got me interested. Downloading now! That is one strange looking little helper

I finished the game and really, really liked it. So went to look at "Specialbit Studios" website to see what else they might have made. The one that appealed to me the most (that I haven't already bought) was called "The Wild Case" .... but I think it's still in development ?? So I'm hoping Big Fish will offer it when it's completed [ And I've discovered I already own Stormhill Mystery : Family Shadows. Apparently I bought it months ago !! So I'm going to play that next ]

Specialbit's most recent release is Angelo and the Daemon. You can read about it here. Ana also announced it when it arrived at Steam. I think it will probably land on Big Fish eventually.

The Developers Edition has a short extra chapter as the wife dreaming. Does the Big Fish version have that? From what I saw in one of the BF reviews, it looks like this might be the only difference. Maybe a couple of more mini games also, going by the description on BF and what I see in my game.
I am not positive about this info though!! That information sounds right to me, oldbroad. The Big Fish version probably doesn't have the extra chapter. Mad, Specialbit posted in this forum several years ago. You can read that old thread here.

Thanks very much for that link, Marian I've looked on Big Fish and the three games mentioned that I don't yet have (Sonya, Island and Inbetween) are all available there. So I just need to wait for a another SALE now !!
