Dream World is an arcade platformer released in 2000 by SemiCom. Blending mechanics from classics like Bubble Bobble and Lode Runner, the game puts you in control of a magician who can clear multi-directional scrolling stages by either collecting all the gems or defeating every enemy.
How to play
Clear each level by grabbing every gem or eliminating all enemies. Your wand can create manholes to trap foes, or you can jump on enemies to pick them up and throw them as projectiles. For standard arcade controls in your browser, use the Arrow Keys to move, Z to attack or use your wand, X to jump, and Shift (Insert Coin) / Enter (Start) to begin.
Tips
- Pick your battles: Since you only need to collect all gems or defeat all enemies to clear a stage, focus on whichever goal is easier for the current layout.
- Use enemies as weapons: Trapped enemies can be picked up and thrown at others, which is highly effective for crowd control in later stages.
- Prepare for bosses: A boss fight occurs every 10 levels. Keep an eye out for rare spellbooks and invincibility potions to give yourself an edge.
