Hey there!
I’ve spend the last days playing through this great game 5 times in a row
and I enjoyed every second of it. If only the NA Vita version would have a
physical release…
What is the game all about?
Reverie is an action-adventure that takes places on a
fictional New Zealand island called Toromi Island. You take control of a young
boy called Tai, with whom you’ll fight your way through dungeons, do some
side-quests, and explore the island. Per the developers, the story is inspired
by the legend “Maui and the Giant Fish”.
As soon as you start the game, you’ll see that it is also highly inspired
by games like The Legend of Zelda and Earthfall, but you’ll also see
some major differences. The biggest one is for sure the weapon. Instead of a sword
you’re using a cricket bat. Which fits very well to the setting of New Zealand.
Dungeons and bosses are very well introduced and are getting more
complicated and harder over the time. During each dungeon, you’ll unlock
further equipment like a Jo-Jo or a snorkel, which will allow you to access new
areas of the island.
Speaking of the island, there is a lot to explore and to discover. It’s
full of hidden caves, humans and other secrets. There are also 2 mini-games:
There’s a shmup inside the Arcade, and there’s also air hockey, you can play
against a microwave. You will spend a lot of time exploring the island if you
want to see everything.
The game isn’t over after seeing the credits. Beating the game will unlock
a bonus dungeon, which is by far the hardest part of the game.
The retro-graphics are very charming and the
soundtrack fits perfectly.
Overall, Reverie is for sure (one of) the best independent game(s) of 2018.
What about trophies?
There are story-related trophies, trophies tied to collectibles as well
as trophies for doing some miscellaneous stuff like rearranging your inventory.
Nothing is missable, as you can load your last save after beating the game.
If you want to get the game done ASAP, follow this video guide by IBadDriverI.
With this, you should be able to beat the game within 2-4 hours.
Where can I get this game?

are versions for PS4 and Vita, and each version has its own stack.

Yes, as it’s not only easy, it’s also very enjoyable. Plus, there are
