The world is asleep. You're still on the air.

Twelve strange dream tapes wait on the shelf. Three broadcast slots need a
lineup. One tiny station has to make it to morning.

Dream Broadcast Simulator is a cozy strategy game about programming a surreal
late-night station. Read the tapes, choose three, place each one where it
belongs, tune the signal, and find out what your sleeping audience actually
wanted.

Program the night

Every broadcast has three slots: Midnight, Deep Night, and
Morning Drift. Each dream brings its own mood, slot fit, and hidden
frequencies. A comforting memory may rescue the morning. A nightmare may be
exactly what Deep Night needs. Two unassuming tapes can find a shared frequency
and turn an ordinary lineup into the night's breakout signal.

The decision is compact. The consequences are not.

Tune the signal

When the lineup goes live, you still have to land the transmission. Tune three
drifting waveforms into phase and lock the signal. A harmonic lock can lift the
entire show; a noisy one can drag a brilliant lineup back down to earth.

Read the room after every show

Broadcast results explain what happened: the score in every slot, timing
quality, audience growth, currency earned, combo effects, and a clear read on
what to try next. Mara, your station archivist, calls out the risky choices,
accidental brilliance, and strange habits shaping your run.

Build a stranger station

Spend credits on signal tools, audience boosts, and discovery equipment. Reveal
deeper frequencies, collect new tapes, encounter dream mutations, and keep
refining the station one broadcast at a time.

Archive, fuse, and challenge yourself

The Dream Journal records every discovered tape, its moods, frequencies,
broadcast history, and the lessons you have learned. In the Fusion Lab, combine
two discovered dreams into a deterministic hybrid tape with inherited traits
and its own playable identity. Your creations return to the nightly shelf and
remain available in the collection.

Want a sharper test? The rapid-broadcast challenge tracks ten complete
broadcasts prepared in under five minutes, rewarding decisive programming
without turning the core game into a reaction test.
