Feverdream Rainbow Chaser is a F2P Battle Royale Game on PS5 and the Epic Game Store. In the Playstation Store it even features a couple of PS Plus Bundles, which only a select few games receive. Either the developer of this game has been paying a lot for this privilege or somebody at Sony lost their mind, because Feverdream is a scuffed Battle Royale Game with Rainbows by a one-person developer. A game like this shouldn’t even be in the Playstation Store in the first place. Steam or Itch.io have huge F2P sections, where thousands of smaller games from Indie devs can be found. Many are real hidden gems, but there is also plenty of trash to be found (some of those I reviewed on this blog). The Playstation Store has a much smaller, more selective F2P section and Sony usually has a quality control, which prevents low effort games from entering the store unless they got a price tag (in that case obviously everything is allowed, because it makes them money). In the case of Feverdream the system must have clearly failed.
It reminds me a bit of Fun with the Fitzgeralds, which I reviewed recently, but Feverdream is actually even worse. You play as characters in some kind of dream world and with the power of rainbows you can travel between different floating islands in the sky and fight the other players.
The rainbow surfing is probably the best part of the game and even that feels pointless and boring. It’s slow and unexciting. When you think about the idea of surfing on clouds in the sky, than it actually sounds thrilling and fast. The game has nothing of that to offer.
The combat is even worse. Attacks feel super clunky and you and the other players will just move around each other, while desperately trying to get an attack in, so the matches go over more quickly. Feverdream doesn’t only look very cheap, the entire gameplay also feels very scuffed.
You might however not even get to experience this atrocity, since the playerbase is super dead. I was queuing in around a dozen occasions for around 10 mins and I could only ever find 2 matches. In order to start a match you only need to find a single other player. I think that says enough. In one match the other guy quit after a few minutes after we couldn’t find each other and he realized what kind of game he was playing. I really can’t blame him for that.
Feverdream features 12 Playstation Trophies and Epic Game Store achievements with no Platinum Trophy and 4 of them being Gold Trophies. If you boost it with a friend (good luck finding someone for this game) or a second console, it should be relatively easy. Otherwise, it will be very grindy due to the low playercount. I didn’t bother with it and I can’t recommend completing the list.
Result:
The developer of this game must have really had a Feverdream when he developed this abomination. I don’t like to hate on games, but this is just terrible. After Fun with the Fitzgeralds and Dead Grandmother Online Battle Royale this is the third abysmal F2P Battle Royale Game I reviewed in the last months. Perhaps the PS5 F2P section is actually getting worse… The combat is atrocious, movement feels boring and scuffed, the visuals don’t look good and there are absolutely no players. Save yourself the time and don’t download this game!
