About the Game

Become the Nightmare. Master the dream. Shatter reality.

Shape of Dreams is a fast-paced action roguelite that fuses hack-and-slash combat, MOBA-style teamplay, and endless strategic variety. Journey through surreal dreamscapes where every battle tests your reflexes and every choice shapes your fate. Play solo for a tight, skill-based challenge or team up with up to three friends in real-time co-op, improvising distinct combat styles and forging powerful builds that can turn you into the nightmare your enemies fear.

Here, the dream bends to those strong enough to shape it. Wield an ever-changing arsenal of skills, modifiers, and artifacts to craft devastating combinations, break through impossible challenges, and carve your own path of progression. No two runs are ever the same, and no single “meta” will carry you to victory.

Why You Should Play

Depth From Day One | With 8 Travelers, 8 worlds, and unique boss encounters.

True Replayability | Every procedural run forces new tactics, and no single “best build” dominates. Four difficulty levels, Lucid Dream modifiers, and endless build variety keep every run fresh.

Made for Solo and Co-op | Tight, skill-based gameplay for lone warriors. Plus, synergistic chaos for squads of up to four.

More Than Just Another Roguelite | Its blend of skill-shot combat, spontaneous customization and co-op gameplay make Shape of Dreams a standout roguelite experience.

Nice art style and fun gameplay. Theres a lot of content in the skill trees and character building. Games sorta hard if you dont want to use broken items but it makes it more fun to level ur character that way

Came here after completing basically everything in Ravenswatch. I picked this up along with the Sworn title. After playing quite a bit of this and Sworn, I think this is the clear winner. It's a game that has a lot of

This game has a lot going for it, as other reviews have detailed. Unfortunately there is one major aspect why I am not able to recommend it someone, and that is the game wipes your data or resets things you have

Sadly, it's a mixed bag for me, because I wanted to play it for so long and came out somewhat disappointed. I love top-down roguelikes very much, the combat is pretty satisfying, and there are nice fresh ideas. But

190 hours and this is one of my favorite co-op games on Steam. I’m always going back and forth between this and Slay the Spire 2. Hoping for more playables in the future.
