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.

Neverending Nightmares is suffused with dread, from its haunting soundtrack to its (mostly) stylistic artistry, but it fails to deliver a compelling experience. Despite its short run-time, the game often feels like it is dragging, tense buildups of tension becoming overladen with monotony. A true horror fan will thank themselves for looking this title up, but when comparing its price point to its quality, it's difficult to think of who would be thankful they played through the game.

I am in awe of the creator of this game. And while this game is terrifying and disturbing, it also gave me a strong feeling of sonder. You should get this game if you like spooky games, for sure. If you want a glimpse into the world of someone’s mind, and you’re ready to flex your empathy muscles, you should get this game. . From a purely capitalist point of view, there is plenty of value for the price of the game. The soundtrack alone is worth the price, but also the artwork, the multiple endings, and the disturbing feelings it will create in you.

Fun is not a word I'd use to describe what I felt during my time with the game for my Neverending Nightmares review. Stress, panic, and shock certainly fit the bill. This is a game that you're either going to love or hate, especially since it features three endings thanks to branching paths during some of the nightmares. I do think you have to play this one for the experience since it's unlike anything I have played before.

It was very interesting for me to play the game for my Neverending Nightmares review since it was definitely very different from all other games I had played before, and it will surely provide you with an experience that you will always remember.

The nature of the game's narrative development means it has a healthy respect for the surreal, and while it's a downbeat narrative, it's a rewarding and valuable one.
