Know somebody who might be like this game?

Summary

Back to Bed is an artistic 3D puzzle game with a surreal twist. It tells the story of Bob, an unlucky narcoleptic who has a tendency of falling asleep in his boring office and then proceeding to sleepwalk into the dangers of the big city. Luckily, Bob has a subconscious guardian named Subob, whom spawns from the mind of Bob and whose job it is to protect the sleepwalker from any danger and guide him back to the safety of his bed.

The ever vigilant Subob must guide the constantly sleepwalking Bob on a journey through a series of surreal painting-like cityscapes where the boundary between Bob's dreams and reality have vanished, as Subob is part of Bob's subconsciousness. The result is an artistic dream world that is recognizable, yet totally different from the real world, where many things are not what they seem and dangers to the sleepwalker lurks deeper in.

Interesting puzzle game with a great difficulty curve. Graphisms are okay. Mechanics are way too simple, they could have explored way moreInteresting puzzle game with a great difficulty curve. Graphisms are okay. Mechanics are way too simple, they could have explored way more options. The first few levels are attractive, but they become much less interesting when you realize that you have seen all the gameplay in less than an hour. Animations are poor. Soundtrack is forgettable.Nightmare mode is just a sad way to try to make the game seem a bit longer.There is no story, just à weird concept and world you will have to evolve in. No proper ending. No major change in the environment. Bob has no personality, no special characteristics, except that he is a sleepwalker.Don't buy it at its full price if you want to test 'Back to Bed', just wait for a discount. You won't have to wait that long...

My video review can be found here:https://youtu.be/AzGHeuTnx4oIt has nice original graphics. It can be played instantly as the conceptMy video review can be found here:https://youtu.be/AzGHeuTnx4oIt has nice original graphics. It can be played instantly as the concept is simple and levels are short. It is not frustrating and difficulty of puzzles is just right to be played by fathers with kids. The cons are the necessity of having game controller and also the fact that the game might become repetitive after some time.Pros:- original graphic style- short levels- easy to learn- suitable for kidsCons:- necessity to have controller- become repetitive after some timeI am giving it Thumbs Up and VideoGaming Father's Index 7 out of 10.

In shortBack to Bed is not the game of the century, but it will definitely entertain you if you like puzzle games.GameplayThe gameIn shortBack to Bed is not the game of the century, but it will definitely entertain you if you like puzzle games.GameplayThe game feels like Chu Chu Rocket, except that Bob (the character to be brought back to bed) is moving right from the start of each level, so it feels much more dynamic. You have to think fast to put the obstacles/bridges on time so that Bob reaches his destination safely. The mechanics are very well thought, although overall I feel the game was not super challenging, and there is not so much diversity in the puzzles.Artistic DesignFor a little game like this, the design is nice and cute. Bob's dreams give you a nice sensation of peace mixed with surrealistic elements.Play TimeIt took me only 4 hours to unlock all achievements. I think Back to Bed would have benefited a lot from a level editor, unfortunately there is none.ConclusionBack to Bed is a nice puzzle game for casual gamers. For harcore gamers, the game is probably a little too easy and short. However, if you are looking for games to complete 100% for your Steam profile, Back to Bed is perfect !

The whole point of the game is to help sleepwalking Bob get back to bed. All the while making sure he doesnt fall off the ledges, waking him and losing the current level. With 15 levels, with increasing difficulty, you play as a dog with a human face, picking up an apple and placing them in his way, to stop Bob from falling off and waking up.Pros: Very easy, simple controls. Art style of Salvador Dali to add more interest, such as the melting clock, the apple and the entire style in general.Cons: Can get boring quickly. Puzzles are a little too easy, only 15 levels.Overall: 6. Interesting style, fun take on puzzle games.

Perhaps there was an interesting idea at the beginning of Back to Bed development – optical illusions wrapped around a puzzle game. A similar idea could have been seen at the recent mobile game hit Monument Valley. However, something went obviously wrong during the Back to Bed development, and its result remains an unfulfilled desire and just a promise from the authors' keyboards.
