Dream Diary: the Four Symbols
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Welcome to open this amazing diary left by Linda's grandmother.
Dream Diary: the Four Symbols is an indie puzzle game developed by Swish Studio. The player leads the girl Linda through her dreams by the realistic reflection of a mirror.
The game has three themes, each with a large scene that is divided into several sub-levels; when the player passes a sub-level, the scene view shifts to the next level. The levels progress from easy to difficult with only one mirror to multiple mirrors. The player moves from only moving the mirror at the beginning to rotating it later on to create paths for the character to follow.
Game Instructions
The mirror is the only mechanism in this game =)
- Feel free to DRAG and DROP it to create walkable paths.
- You can also ROTATE (default with keys A & D) it while dragging.
- (The blue dots will help you position the mirror.)
- And move by left-clicking your destination.

Great game!!
COOOL Arts!!
Feels so oriental, just level6 of fire is too hard
Thanks for your love ❤
We will keep a balance between the difficulty of each level.
The Lil green guy won't move no matter how much I move the mirrors. It is unclear what I am supposed to do.
Thank you for the feedback, we will add into the game more instructions on how to play.
You can move by left clicking on the destination you want to reach and, if there is a path from your starting position to the destination, the character will move to it.
