After 20 in-game days, a "flashback" option appears on the main menu which allows the player to experience an abbreviated version of the last dream they played.
Sometimes when starting a new dream, a surreal video is played instead of a playable dream. This results in the environments becoming more surreal and psychedelic. As a player plays through more and more dreams, the game adds more variety to the dreams by changing textures more often. The graph rates dreams in relation to being an "Upper", "Downer", "Static", or "Dynamic" dream. Each dream will end after ten minutes or will end early if the player interacts with certain objects or falls off a cliff.Īfter each dream, one "day" passes in the game, and the dream the player just experienced is marked on a graph. While the environments are static, the default textures are sometimes swapped and they may also be populated with random objects, animals, and characters roaming about to add variety. LSD has a set of several static and defined environments to explore including a Japanese village, a field, a city, a house, and others. By bumping into any object or walking through certain tunnels, the player will be transported to another setting. The player begins each dream in a random area they can begin exploring. The game is played in short sequences or "dreams" lasting up to ten minutes. Gameplay takes place in a first-person perspective in a 3D environment with the player's control limited to moving frontward and backward, turning, strafing, running, and looking behind. LSD: Dream Emulator is an exploration game that has been described as a "playable dream" in which the player explores surrealistic environments without any overarching goals.
