NOT REALLY A DREAM GAME
There are only few things to do in each scene and too much speaches between each action.
Not enough funny for me...

Needs more substance
Like others here, I have to agree that this game was too short. I love the first few Dream Chronicles games, but this one seemed like an afterthought. It even recycles several locations from previous games. Maybe it should have been combined with another DC game! The puzzles were okay and the visuals are as beautiful as ever, but there just wasn't enough here to make it worthwhile.

Meh...
Sorry to say, as much as I enjoyed the first couple of the series, this one is pure boring. Feels more like a map pack than an expansion pack, the difficulty didn't change by a bit, no challenge at all.

Lazy
I've moderately enjoyed previous Dream Chronicles games, though I was pretty indifferent to the one previous to this. Book of Water was truly disappointing, and gives further evidence that the DC series is continuing to slide downhill in quality.
The word that comes to mind for this particular game is "lazy." Many of the scenes in the game--and there aren't that many to begin with--are simply repetitions of scenes in previous games, with the same puzzles. It appears, then, that maybe one about half of this game is really original, while the rest is just cut-and-pasted from previous games.
As I mentioned, what new places there were, weren't that many, with very little depth to them--a couple or a few rooms, and that was it. Sometimes there would be a locked door that is never meant to be opened, which is annoying since there are so few places to visit and so few things to do. Lazy.
Finally, the puzzles. As mentioned, some are just repetitions of puzzles in previous games. Virtually all of them are simple, presenting little or no challenge. At the end of the game the puzzles simply repeat themselves, which gets old fast. One also would expect a big payoff puzzle at the end, but instead--nothing. Again, lazy.

horrible
Not worth purchasing. It only lasted about half an hour after you purchase the game. It was pathetic! I want my money back!!! The story was not half as interesting as the first few in the series. This was by far the worst of the chronicles. Save your money and what little time it takes to play it.

It was just ok
The first few games in this series were so good, that it's just hard to play a sub par one. Still pretty graphics, but the charm is missing.
