    Confused, scared or happy? All doesn‘t matter, just like a game.

    When do you realize that a dream isn't real?

  • Description

    This is a relatively complex story. It simultaneously tells three different stories: a young female explorer try to find a unknown monsters in a closed entertainment venue, a somewhat neurotic restaurant staff trying to catch a "cat," and a female scientist in the laboratory eagerly seeking experimental success and recognition. These are three different individuals, or it can be interpreted as the same person in different universes. Their commonality is that they are all striving to find something, no matter the means. However, this is not the only commonality; another is that the things they seek will also find them and put them in danger: the monster captures the female officer, the cat leaps towards the female staff, and the scientist ends up completely controlled by her own mad experiments. But such an outcome, they wouldn't know until that moment arrives. However, as the author who have god perspective, I know. Even I played their fate and weave their lives into a fourth story: "she" plays a game of hide and seek with the "things" that harm them, and me with this fourth story will hide inside.

    When a person is in a dream, it is difficult to clearly realize that he is in a dream. Sometimes during light sleep, a person will enter many level dreams. Therefore, sometimes people still feel confused after waking up, and in those few minutes you can often experience the emotions and memories brought by the dream. But if you choose to go back to sleep next, you will enter a lucid dream. Well, dreams are out of your control, but lucid dreams are. What would be the reason for you to choose lucid dreaming?

  • Scene introduction

    Indoor resort with many recreational facilities

    The story mainly takes place in the water recreation area. The scenery is somewhat like a botanical garden, with numerous pools and slides. It's evening, and the facilities are in an emergency closed state, so traces of past guests playing here are scattered everywhere. Strangely, there are fish and blue slime everywhere.

    After-work Chinese restaurant

    A restaurant with very poor business. The reason is that customers often complain, such as traces of food being eaten. Poor hygiene because there are often utensils dropped on the floor that no one cleans up, and some people even find nails in their food. Some superstitious individuals say there's a ghost in the restaurant, while only the female staff firmly believe that there's a cat causing mischief, but the manager thinks it's just her lazy excuse.

    A laboratory conducting large-scale experiments

    Here, groundbreaking experiments on the human brain are being carried out. The experiment involves potentially achieving a significant breakthrough by synchronizing the human brain with a computer, connecting neurons and computers one by one using intricate wiring. The difficulty is immense, and there are substantial risks involved. Therefore, the room primarily features a chair for the experiment subject, surrounded by computers and thick cables, some of which are as hefty as power cables.

    Closed corridor

    Depressing, familiar, a green corridor with lots of doors on both sides that feels like it never ends. This is the scene that means the character is lost. I don't know if it was a dream.

    The garden on the roof

    This scene represents a dream that the character has no control over. Set in Chinese style, the character is happiness in this scene. The character will also meet the Blue creature here, and her actions will follow it.

    Laboratory

    This scene is the key scene that controls the plot of the story. The large number of machines and workers makes it difficult for the characters to tell whether this is a dream or a reality.

    Different style scene

    Those scenes will depend on the material. Two characters will play here. Whether this part is dream or just the characters imagination is uncertain. What is clear is that the characters are happy.
