No Rest for the Weary
Steam

No Rest for the Weary features two worlds, the real world and the mysterious Dream World. Although quite different on the surface, both worlds affect each other and present their own challenges to the main character, Joe.
Joe needs to balance the stress of college life, dealing with his unresolved past, and figuring out more about the Dream World and its meaning. By making social connections in the real world and solving dungeons in the Dream World, Joe moves closer to understanding these two worlds and himself.


Go to class, talk to other students, and see what’s different about each day of the week. Make sure to pay attention to the people hanging around campus, they might become significant later.

Spend time after class hanging out with other characters and learning more about them. As you increase your bond with other characters, you unlock new abilities to use in the Dream World.

Fight Enemies found in the Dream World using your combat skills and unlocked abilities from your bonds in the real world.

Help the residents of the Dream World by solving dungeons and uncovering their secrets. Figure out the significance of this new world.
