By 遊戲私房菜 April 10, 2018

“「無盡夢魘」是一款詭異、恐怖並可能會讓你感到相當不舒服的遊戲。 作者是一名受精神病折磨的患者,他透過抑鬱的人物、關卡設計,讓你在遊玩的時候,能充分感受「精神病患者」腦中的世界,是怎麼樣的奇特與瘋狂;遊戲有繁體中文,沒有什麼解謎成分,主要就是冒險、看劇情,有多結局。 除了幾個點可能被嚇到之外,大多是會被詭譎的氣氛給影響,而感到緊張與不適。 不是一款適合拿來放鬆心情的作品,但有不同於其他遊戲的體驗。”

“Neverending Nightmares falls into the must-play section of the horror genre. Whether or not you find it scary, you’ll definitely be disturbed and intrigued as you seek resolution to the madness.”
4.5/5 – GameRevolution

“Neverending Nightmares is an excellent display of psychological horror that is as thought-provoking as it is terrifying.”
4.5/5 – TwoDashStash

“By the time I was done with Neverending Nightmares, not only did I have a great scary time, I felt like I understood a little bit of what Gilgenbach and others struggling with the illness feel on a daily basis. Make no mistake, it's still a horror game first and foremost, but that extra little bit of dark knowledge is unsettling. The terror feels more real, more concrete, than any other horror game I've played in recent memory.”
7/10 – Destructoid

About This Game

Neverending Nightmares is a psychological horror game inspired by the developer's actual battle with mental illness. In the game, you take on the role of Thomas who awakens from a terrible nightmare only to find that he is still dreaming. As he descends deeper through the layers of hellish dreamscapes, he must hide from horrifying apparitions and outrun his inner demons. He must discover which of the horrors he encounters are a manifestation of his own psychological state and figure out what reality will be when he finally wakes up.

  • Terrifying nightmare worlds inspired by real life struggles with OCD and depression.
  • Black and white artwork creates a distinctive moody and dark atmosphere.
  • Branching narrative features 3 completely different endings.
  • A dynamic lighting system gives the ever present darkness a character of its own.
  • IGF nominated composer Skyler McGlothlin delivers a haunting and oppressive dark ambient score.
