About
Step into the space between dreams.
Dreamcore is a psychological exploration game that immerses you in the haunting beauty of the largest liminal spaces ever created in a video game. With no guides, no direction, and no escape but the one you carve for yourself, the key lies in observation and intuition. Will you keep your bearings in a world designed to make you lose them?
Dreampools: A surreal maze of endless pools, dimly lit by artificial glow. The tiled walls glisten with reflections, amplifying the stillness of the water. No sound accompanies you but the distant drip of water and the echo of your own footsteps. Narrow hallways twist into grand, open chambers, interconnected without apparent logic. The dreamlike calm is absolute, yet the unease never fully fades—an unseen presence always lingers at the edges of your awareness. 
Eternal Suburbia: A neighborhood frozen in an eerie, artificial tranquility. Row upon row of identical houses stretch into infinity, each façade a mirror of the last. But once inside, the illusion fractures—hallways loop into themselves, and the once-cozy interiors become an unsettling puzzle. Time flows in cycles of day and night, the warm hum of vintage jazz filling the air during daylight. Yet, instead of comfort, the melodies deepen the isolation. As dusk falls and the shadows stretch long, a single question takes root: are you truly alone in this place? 

Playrooms: A sequence of spaces inspired by children’s play areas, recreated with an artificial and silent aesthetic. Throughout the map, you’ll explore padded rooms, plastic castle structures, ball-filled corridors, netted tunnels, oversized blocks, and printed city carpets. Each area follows the logic of childhood entertainment but is stripped of functionality or human presence. There are no instructions, no sounds, and no clear direction; progression is entirely up to the player.


Liminal Hotel presents the definitive version of the famed “Level 188” Backrooms meme, offering a wide variety of styles within its rooms. Using elevators, you’ll traverse the hotel floor by floor, and as you descend, you’ll notice the hotel’s atmosphere becoming increasingly unstuck in time.

Dead Mall lets players loose on a nightmarish plaza with all the staples of childhood shopping, but contorted into an uncanny ordeal. Delve into its subliminal arcade, parking lot, food court, and bevy of isolated shops.
Every level in Dreamcore is a standalone experience that offers a unique blend of exploration and atmosphere. Two additional maps have already been added, and a final map is currently in development, further expanding the game’s world. Early players will receive all future maps at no extra cost.
Sums Steam only; PlayStation, Xbox, Epic publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This game is somehow both terrifying and relaxing at the same time. The music is wonderful (albeit a bit sparse in some levels) and there is always something to see and discover. It's very easy to get lost and turned around, yes, but if you're patient and alert enough, you will see each level to the end.

Easily the best liminal space game. I absolutely love the atmosphere to it
迷宫难度全面升级的阈限空间步行模拟巨作。玩完的泳池关卡和临界酒店,深夜意犹未尽。如果说《池核 Pools》是入坑阈限空间步行模拟,专攻纯粹泳池的完美艺术品;那么《阈限偏移 Liminal Shift》就是以池核为主,同时加入办公室、教室、玩偶屋等更多陆地后室层级的进阶之作;来到《梦核 Dreamcore》,泳池关卡作为当头炮,依然非常硬核,量大管饱。但我最期待的一关,是游戏封面上那个拥有整整8层楼,以英国伦敦希思罗机场T4航站楼旁的Holiday Inn智选假日酒店为原形,一比一复刻的Liminal Hotel 临界酒店。 梦核最让我惊叹的,是它庞大无比又错综复杂的立体地图结构带来的超长单关流程。随之而来的,是通关找到最终出口之前,逐渐蔓延的巨大绝望感,以及对应的,看到最终出口时极大的救赎感。这种压迫感、绝望感、救赎感,感觉通常会随着游戏关卡的流程长度、地形复杂程度、游戏通关时长的增加而随之对应上升。 这款游戏对玩家的耐心要求极高,需要玩家有几款阈限空间游戏的经验,你必须能够享受在庞大、诡异的空间中独自探索、迷失和发现的感觉,不介意、甚至享受游戏缺乏明确指引的探索感。否则,如此硬核的迷宫难度,十分容易劝退急于半小时通一关的新手,如果没有耐心,最初的焦虑,很快就会在你逐渐迷失在向左向右时,演变为纯粹的躁郁。我真的很好奇这些地图从设计师软件的全览上帝视角里看是什么样子的,我也可以想象得到,这注定会是一款口碑两极分化的作品。 从单关通关时长上来看,我最初入门的《8号出口》和《8号站台》基本上两三分钟就能通一关(比如一个站台号、一节车厢),一小时基本就可以通关并拿到全成就了。到了《池核 Pools》,单关时长大概在30分钟左右(但是场景太好看了拍照会耽误一些时间),《阈限偏移 Liminal Shift》,单关时长来到了大概40-50分钟,等到《梦核 Dreamcore》,基本完全通关一章,要花费1-2个小时。我觉得我已经算在现实生活里非常不路痴的那种了,在北京开车可以分得清东西南北,玩那些生化类的箱庭解谜也会默默的在心里边玩边勾勒地形图,很少走冤枉路。但在本作里,我罕见的感受到了那种在心里画图,画着画着开始转晕了的,渐渐深入骨髓的绝望感,而这也是这款游戏最迷人的地方。 个人推荐池核游戏游玩顺序:《Pools》→《Liminal Shift》→《Dreamcore》。我愿称之为最优秀的“池核三部曲”。 游戏中我们经常可以看到黄色的笑脸圆球和笑脸气球,它们被称为Fren,设定是一个拥有自我意识的黄色球体,它喜欢在空旷的房间里四处漂浮,把吓唬探险者当成一种乐趣。这个名字明显来源于英文单词Friend(朋友)的一种俏皮、非正式的拼写,这个名字也非常贴切地反映了它在游戏中的双重定位:表面上,它有着灿烂的笑脸,看起来友好又顽皮;实际上,当你以为它是你迷路时的指引,兴冲冲地走过去时,有时发现只是一个死胡同;还有时,它会突然从墙壁里冒出来吓唬你,然后迅速消失,完美诠释了你人生中会遇到的那种“微笑又冷漠的看客”。 而令我印象最为深刻的,是临界酒店这一关。本关中令人绝望到沮丧的迷失场景,不像是泳池关无尽的、一眼望不到头的泳池迷宫,而是你身在其中,明明看着3楼室外的电源开关近在咫尺,但是就是绕了半个小时也无法到达。可以说,临界酒店这一关将这款游戏的优缺点都推向了极致,它是一场对玩家耐心与观察力的终极考验。 这一关的设计灵感,直接来源于后室亚文化中非常经典的Level188——百窗庭,它因墙上布满了大量窗户而得名。在这关里,你将通过贯穿酒店8层楼的三四十部电梯,在风格各异的8个楼层间不断下行。随着不断“下降”,酒店的环境也会发生变化:从后现代主义、包豪斯、现代极简风格,逐渐过渡到华丽复古风格,粗野主义、复古混搭等风格,伴随着越到底层越加明显的复古黑人爵士乐,营造出一种逐级回溯、脱离时间的错位感。这种层层递进回到过去的设计,旨在模拟一种坠入深渊、离现实越来越远的梦核体验。 这款游戏的提示非常有限:细心观察、加强对环境的感知。一开始,我甚至不知道临界酒店这一关要干什么,出口到底在哪。按照正常逻辑,我的起始点在酒店的最高层第8层,那应该就是要逐层下到最下的第1层,找到出口就能通关了。但真用左右手原则从第8层下到了第1层,找了半天也没找到出口,甚至有些地方走着又上到了第2层,这时我已经开始怀疑我是不是卡关了,但是并不。当你仔细观察,你会发现,连接巨大的如迷宫般的酒店两侧的,是几个可以通向另一侧的玻璃走廊,这是整个关卡的关键。另一个关键,是开启位于酒店3层半空平台的电源开关。而这个3层的空中平台,需要从如迷宫般的2楼中找到一个看似普通的通往3层的电梯,而这也是整关里最难找的部分。因为在二层,你根本没法通过窗户看到3层空中平台电源开关的位置,以及如何能到达那里。只有你回到4层,站在某一个房间的窗户,用放大画面的方式才可以看清——原来3层玻璃走廊的电梯要从2层上来,而那个电梯,因为和其他向上的电梯完全相同,我曾经数次路过,却完全没有留意到它的特殊存在。 这时,另一个游戏里最绝的事情来了——听音辨位。游戏中,开启3层电源开关后,百窗庭会每隔三四秒,发出有规律的“滴”声。随着不停地行走,滴声时远时近,时左时右。后来当我顺着声音的方位去走时,通关答案豁然开朗:声音是从每层向上电梯的方位发出的。从8层逐级下到1层,再通过2层电梯,上到3层玻璃长廊的电梯,来到空中平台开启电源开关,然后再从3层听音辨位,逐级找到上行电梯,回到第8层,在第8层中间的玻璃长廊,迎来最后的逃离大门。 真是一次奇妙又难忘的旅程。单是设计叹为观止的临界酒店百窗庭,就值回票价。
9/10 If you are a backrooms fan, this is the game you want to get. Out of all of them, this is the one that I come back to the most often. There are 5 different "levels" and each are unique so I'll give a brief review of each: Pools: By far the best one. I love this one so much. Infinite Suburbia: Incredible. Take my money. Playrooms: Phenomenal, but is the first one to have a "mission" if you will. Hotel: Felt rushed. Probably was. Still cool though. Mall: Oy vey. At least the developer admitted it wasn't good and is fixing it. Once again rushed to death to release around the movie release (fair). The first time I played the poolrooms it took me a few hours, the mall took me 30 minutes first try as an example. If you love exploring strange places and not having any stakes (there are no monsters) this is the game for you. Bonus points if you take an edible before going in.
Лучший из лучших из жанра backrooms
Este es, sin dudas, el mejor juego que he jugado dedicado a los Backrooms, Espacios Liminales, Dreamcore etc. La belleza de los mapas, la asfixia de sentirte completamente perdido y, lo mejor, cero criaturas que te persigan durante tu recorrido. Son mapas para admirar, cumplir lo que te piden e intentar escapar. La mezcla entre frustración y emoción que sentía al jugarlo es como si realmente viviera la experiencia de querer salir de un espacio liminal. Me costó completarlo, pero se logró. Mi total respeto a los desarrolladores, creo que realmente entendieron lo que es la sensación de estar en esos mundos oníricos y laberinticos. Espero sus demás trabajos o proyectos dedicados a este universo. La verdad que se lucieron. 1000/10 Mi top de mapas: 1.- Dreampools 2.- Dead Mall 3.- Eternal Suburbia 4.- Liminal Hotel 5.- Playrooms PSDT: Espero saquen a la venta el soundtrack. La música y la ambientación del juego es maravillosa <3
