New Dream Day Wedding Coming Soon!

[Post New]by GinaBean on Jun 29, 08 5:42 PM
The other day, someone on the forum mentioned having beta-tested the newest game in the Dream Day series. No sooner than I replied to that post, I had it in my e-mail to test as well. For those fans of the series, you won't be disappointed! Most of the game is the same as the last one, it's actually 2 games in one, and you choose your storyline. But the newest twist is the "apartment" level, where you find different items to use in conjunction with each other in order to find your item list for the next level. THAT I really enjoyed. Also new are "bonus" items, when once you find it in that level, you're given a bonus, such as having an item removed from your list or a minute added to the clock. There are only 2 mini-puzzles, so it gets repetitive after a while, but both of them are new. I think it's a pretty good guess that BFG will get this one in, considering they offered all the others.

I'm in the minority on the forums about this one but I didn't care for it. Maybe I'm just in a mood where I don't like anything, who knows. I'll have to try it again when it comes out and see. As of right now tho, I'd give it a

Feistysmom, I can see where you're coming from, we've been so spoiled with such games as HE Amazon, Madame Fate, and a few others, that this just pales in comparison. But if you're a bona-fide HO addict, it's pretty good. All opinions respected here!

Played it. The bonus item where it adds a minute to the clock was used in the last Dream Day game. I wish they would change the ring tone on the phone. They did add scenes like finding stuff in the apartment which was nice but quite easy especially after playing simular type scenes in Hidden Secrets - The Nightmare, etc. I told them they needed more then just 2 mini games. I thought there would be a new one in each gift. They had more mini games in First Home. I suggested a couple other little "tweaks" they need to do. The thing I hated the most (as in First Home) was the "Pick A Story". I always just picked any senerio without reading just to move on. LOL I had to click on one item about 10 times before it took. Also, I love the "design it" part, but they always give us such butugly choices to chose from. I got to the point in Dream Day First Home where I ended up trying to create the ugliest furniture possible..... which wasn't hard.

All in all, it's a cute game and a step up from their last game - Dream Day First Home (I did not buy the first 2 games because I didn't like them). If they fix the little problems and add more mini games, I will most likely buy it. What the creators did was copy the last Dream Day game and then added "new" game ideas that are already popular in a lot of the HO games coming out now.

Dang Edna, you're up early again today.

The only DD game I liked was First Home. Played it several times. I am surprised you didn't like it.

Not sure knoxstar. It's still in Beta testing, but looks pretty darn close to being done.

I have a question for anyone that wants to answer. I played the demos of all three Dream games, but haven't purchased any of them. Do you have to play them in order? I'm asking cause I have some coins to use at another site and can get the last one (Home) for a really cheap price. Thanks for any and all suggestions!

lilorange. you don't have to buy the DD games in order they come in. I got mine from Big Fish ( bought the honeymoom and home) but didn't buy the first one till much later. Good luck cuz I thought "home" was really good.

I've played the first two DD's, but never even tried the third one (Home). I personally wasn't crazy for them. I guess I'll give Home a try when I'm bored. LOL

Hi Gina, maybe that's what it was, being spoiled after so many wonderful games like HEA and Madame Fate. I just felt like they didn't put much effort into this new DD especially after the quality of the first 3 DD's. I have the first 3 and still play them. I'll give this one another try when it comes out.

From the ending of "Home" I would have thought they would have moved on to Dream Day Baby. At least that's what they were implying. Now I guess they are starting a new series. I don't know about that. I would have preferred they continue the old one with the baby theme, but I'll probably give this one a whirl. I just feel kind of cheated because I was looking forward to a baby one. Oh well.

Yeah sillyfeet, that's what I thought too, and I was kinda bummed about it. This latest one has the couple from the first 3 recommending your wedding planner services to two couples they know in Manhattan.

And feistysmom, let's remember that this was still in beta, so I'm sure there will be improvements made. I'm willing to give it a shot.

I guess there wasn't much of a game to do with having a baby. I mean, there could be a baby shower, but how much planning goes into that? We could be there for the delivery and play games to decide whether she gets an epidural or not. LOL

Beta simply means that it's still in testing mode, and not in its finished form. Running things in beta mode usually helps to flush out any small, overlooked glitches that might occur.

Ghost..... beta testing is where people can play a new game (Usually for just 1 hour) before it is released to the general public. The "Beta Testers" play the game and then fill out a survey sheet to let the creators know if there are any glitches in the game and/or to make suggestions on how to improve the game. Several game sites have a beta testing sign up sheet. I can't post any links or anything so you will need to check out the sites by searching.
