dreeps: Alarm Playing Game Reviews

Perfect Entertainment RPG & Alarm

Curtis R. Shideler

This app does exactly what it says: It is an alarm AND an RPG that you watch and can check in on throughout the day. Pretty fun. Would love to see the ability to customize the main character and possibly play an RPG mini game to heal him throughout the day. But cool concept and well executed ideas as is.

Exactly what it claims to be

I am really enjoying this so far. I can tell a lot of work was put into this, and I'm really digging the pixel art. It reminds me a lot of Godville, but a little less hands on. As mentioned by someone else, I would love to see some character customization options and possible mini games. Just optional things the user can do if he wants a little more interaction.

A window to an incredible world

Food please

I hesitate to call this a "game" at all, it's so much more that than. It's a portal. A window to a fantasy. All you need to cross into this universe is a bit of imagination and, more importantly, the courage to let yourself fall into it. We owe it's creators a infinite amount of gratitude for having the bravery to put this art into the world. Thank you for this gift.

Great start

It's a beautiful game that is exactly what it says. I've liked checking in on my guy during the day and seeing the awesome artwork. But there could be some minor interaction, or a much clearer "how to play" menu. Other than that it's just a fun little walkabout.

Oddly satisfying

Really neat concept and a little addictive. I like supporting innovative apps.

A portal.

Dreeps is, simply put, a portal into another world. It's hard to explain, but watching the robot boy walking through another world as you live out your own day is strangely compelling, symbiotic even. I couldn't help thinking of the meta-narrative of "The Neverending Story." Beautiful graphics, and well constructed environments help complete what is to be a revolutionary idea in gaming. Fantastic work.

10/10.

This game is beautiful beyond belief. The attention to detail is crazy, and the imaginative nature of the game is perfectly complimented by the surreal art style. That said, it isn't exactly a game. As it calls itself a "alarm playing game", it's not wrong, it does provide on the alarm front. But as it goes for a game, it's more of a practice in storytelling than a structured game. There is little to no player interaction in it, but that's the beauty of it. You can go about your day without having to check your gold mines or elixir castles, and instead the game acts as a window into this wonderfully crafted world. I would love to see some sort of inventory system added, where the robot boy could sometimes loot interesting items or clothing the character could use. This would add a bunch to the immersion without steering away from the style of the gameplay right now.

Too boring game with excellent graphics

Just looked at the walking robot during all day. That all.

Refreshing

I really like the approach. Sometimes I just soak in the atmosphere through my car speakers on my way to work. There is no stress to this game. It is simply delightful. I use to love checking up on my Eve Online character and see how he was progressing. This seems to satisfy that same itch.

Missing essential features mar great idea

This app bills itself as an alarm clock app replacement with an RPG bolted on, which is a fantastic concept. However, the alarm always turns itself off after 30 seconds! This is a huge flaw in any alarm app, since it will inevitably lead to users oversleeping due to not waking during the first 30 seconds of the alarm. Other basic alarm clock app features, such as a snooze button, are also missing. I sincerely hope the developers address these issues in an update, because I really want to love and use this app!
