Key highlight

A psychedelic horror visual novel where you play a dog abducted by aliens, showing twisted dreams to your captor. Choices matter, and the fate of Earth hangs in the balance.

Who this is for

If you're curious about a dog's perspective on alien abduction and enjoy choice-driven horror, this is a must-try.

Details

Overview

What if your dog was taken by aliens on its 25th birthday? That's the surreal premise of a Dogs Dream, a psychedelic psychological horror visual novel from developer PUMPKIM.

Released on November 6, 2026, this paid Steam title blends point-and-click exploration with a narrative where your choices truly matter. You play as Cloud, a good dog who must show countless dreams to an alien captor.

But these dreams are twisted, and only your sixth sense can lead you to the truth.

Highlights

Psychedelic Horror: The game leans heavily into mind-bending visuals and unsettling dreamscapes, creating an atmosphere that's both beautiful and disturbing.
Choices Matter: Your decisions influence the alien's mood and the story's direction. Make the alien angry, and it might suck the Earth like a candy—so choose wisely.
Multi-player Support: Despite being a single-player narrative experience, the game includes multi-player features, allowing you to share the journey with friends via Family Sharing.

Who It's For

If you enjoy psychological horror with a sci-fi twist, or if you're a fan of visual novels that reward careful observation, a Dogs Dream is worth a look. The game's unique perspective—playing as a dog—adds a fresh layer to the alien abduction trope.

It's also accessible to a wide audience, with support for English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, Russian, and several European languages.
