Don't wake up
SteamDon’t Wake Up is a psychological horror game where you play as Eli, a young boy trapped inside dreams that refuse to let him go.
Each night pulls you deeper into unstable dreamscapes where familiar places twist into cages, corridors fold into impossible spaces, and unseen presences stalk the silence. To escape, you must navigate these nightmares, solve their warped logic, and uncover the meaning behind the dolls scattered throughout the dreams — fragments of memories Eli is not ready to face.
Above all else, you must remain quiet.
With real-time microphone detection, the dream is always listening. Every scream, gasp, or involuntary sound risks collapsing the world and forcing you to begin again. Survival is not about fighting back — it is about control, patience, and learning when to stay completely still.
Each dream introduces new rules, threats, and fears. No two nightmares feel the same, and what protects you in one may betray you in another.
Every dream pulls you further from waking. Every sound brings the nightmare closer.
Stay quiet. Learn the rules. And whatever you do — don’t wake up.
