Report an issuedreeps is an award-winning Japanese indie game that received both the "Best of Art" and "Best of Game Design" at Indie Stream FES 2015! It also was #1 in the App Store (for premium RPGs) in 22 countries, like France and Spain!
dreeps has been updated! Released in 2015, this unique pixel-based Alarm Clock Game with the killer chiptune soundtrack was released to wide acclaim. Now, we've brushed up the graphics and sounds, and even added a few new things. Hope you like the changes, and thanks for playing dreeps!
— introduction —
For those who don’t have the time to play RPGs anymore, this is a new type of game—an Alarm Playing Game!
To play dreeps, just set the alarm. That’s all. Easy, right? When you head to bed, the robot boy will sleep just like you, regaining HP and recharging for his next day of adventure!
When the alarm rings in the morning, both of you will wake up and start your day. When you go to work or school, the robot boy will head out on an adventure through fields, valleys, and peninsulas where monsters roam. Or, he might discover dungeons where strange bosses lurk... Either way, every day is a new day for you and the robot boy!
But how does adventuring work? That's real easy! After the alarm sounds, the robot boy's adventure will automatically continue as long as he has enough HP, even while the app is closed. You might miss some events, but don’t worry about it. There’s almost no text in this game.
So whenever you feel like it, load dreeps up and check on the robot boy's adventure. Or, leave it running on your desk while you work, study, or snack. Play however you want, and take it at your own pace.
Visuals and sound can give you hints to what sort of story is unfolding in this little world. But use your imagination! Take those hints and try to guess just what's happening. Oh! And don't forget that you can share screenshots of and thoughts about the game by pressing the "Share" button.
dreeps was created to give the player the ability to enjoy a story little by little, day by day. With beautifully crafted art and animations, this is a new kind of game that's easy to pick up and simple for anyone to learn.
This pocket-size adventure has been made for you by three people in Tokyo who put all their hearts into delivering a fresh and charming experience.
Thank you for playing dreeps!

8 of 15Very intuitive design and great consideration for the customer. It is definitely worth the money, but there are some great ambiguities that were not expressed in the tutorial. #1 How does the multiple alarms work? #2 Can I possibly transfer it to a new device, if I upgrade? #3 Can there be more for the user to do?
RPGs are my favorite and with this on since you just set an alarm to heal it's fun to just watch the fights take place and hope to win the only problem is that to do boss fights you have to stay up to like 11-4 and it goes up an hour each time which is hard if have school or a job and you can't stay up late or can stay awake until 4 am sad to see it end but when I made it to the end it was sad to see it was finally over
Either we need a huge expansion or a Dreeps 2. I got all the Alarms, am Level 45 and all I see are the same things. Don’t want to get bored already but is hard with nothing new for weeks always!
So I bought this when it first came out and just now got my dreep to ma level! I've beaten the game numerous times but for me it wasn't done until my little robot hit max! What a long journey the two of us took and it's sad it's finally ended. I salute my little dreep!
This game is almost perfect for me because I happen to be be very lazy and don't put much time into games. This game allows me to do what I do best (sit around and do nothing) and still level up and stuff. I would really appreciate an update though with more bosses and a little more customization. I also like how there arent any words, it lets you make your own story. If I could rate this overall 15/10. I would also gladly support the developers with some in-app purchases.
this game is da drizzle dizzle drippidy dreep son!
I admire the folks who made this- the experience stays with you even after the app is closed. It's gentle and calming, despite the little battles the robot faces (though I don't feel these battles are really necessary). It's nice to know my little side kick is living a rich life is some alternate dimension.
Do you feel like an automaton sometimes? Here is your ally. Silently trudging onward in commiseration. Goodnight.
