A Dream About Parking Lots is not a typical game. There are no fast moves, no adrenaline-fueled clashes, nor major plot twists. However, it has something else: a sense of lostness and the question that each of us asks ourselves at least once – "Where am I going?"
The plot of this unusual game is simple. We find ourselves in an endless parking lot, searching for our car while talking to a therapist about recurring dreams. Everything that happens in the game – from the way we move to the conversations – is shaped like a dream: quiet, hazy, with a feeling that we have experienced this somewhere before, but we don’t know where or when.
The visual style resembles old games, but at the same time, it feels modern and artistic. Everything looks as if it is covered in fog. The sounds are unobtrusive, a piano plays softly in the background, like music from a movie.
This game comes from the author's personal experience.
The game lasts a short time, perhaps half an hour to forty minutes, but the feeling it leaves lasts much longer.
On the PlayStation 5 console, the game has a platinum trophy, and it is very easy to unlock, which may attract the lazier trophy hunters. Overall, there are 11 trophies plus platinum.
