Psycho Dream

Summary

Psycho Dream is a side-scrolling action platform game developed by Riot, a division of Telenet Japan, for the Super Famicom. Set in a virtual-reality medium called D-Movie, the story follows two agents, Ryō Shijima and Maria Tobari, who enter a dream world to rescue a girl trapped there.

Players can choose between Ryō, who fights with a sword, and Maria, who uses ranged and transformation-based attacks. The game is structured around short action stages with enemies, hazards, and boss encounters, combining science fiction and horror imagery. It was released in Japan in 1992, while a planned North American release under the title Dream Probe was not completed.
