About DreamWeb
DreamWeb is a 1994 cyberpunk adventure by Neil Dodwell and David Dew, who worked as Creative Reality. It was published by Empire Interactive. You follow Ryan through a rain-soaked city, one strange dream at a time, using the mouse to walk, look and use things.
The creators later released it as freeware. This page runs the original CD edition, English (US), freeware release 1.1, with the open-source ScummVM engine, exactly as the creators released it.
