"Dreamkiller" is free on Steam this weekend. It's an FPS game where you go into people's dreams and shoot their nightmares.

I haven't played it yet (it's installing now), but for free, how bad can it be?

EDIT: HOLY CRAP THE FIRST LEVEL IS FULL OF SPIDERS.

Not a very complicated or original game, but entirely worth the price I paid so far. I get to run around in a really atmospheric world setting spiders on fire with my brain, or sometimes just blowing them up with a minigun or rocket launcher. And isn't that really what it's all about?

More reviews later?

Maybe. But the game itself is pretty self-explanatory: run into a location, blast all the spawning monsters while dodging their attacks and picking up the toys they drop, then run to the next area. Eventually you hit a boss, and shoot it a whole lot until it dies.

It's really not that engaging a game, once you start playing. But free!

What, uh...what are the spiders doing to you?

You can see my cause for concern...

You sick fuck.

(They're trying to kill you and eat you.)

Well, as long as it's in that order, I think we're fine, then.

But... dreams are sacred.

saving people from their nightmares? reminds me... I have to reread the BFG.
