What an amazing game! This rpg let's you experience anything you ever dreamed! It is based on a unique premise that makes the players come up with an end goal they want to acheive, as well as milestones along the way, and then the game master facilitates that dream by playing the part of npcs and moderating challenges. The analogy of the dream map being a "movie trailer" and then the game play is the movie is very apt. You know how it ends, but finding out how you get there is what makes it fun.
The mechanics are very simple, and easy to pick up for players new to rpgs. All dice roles are made by the players, which keeps them engaged and makes them feel like they are in control of their own destiny. Having a skill in an area related to a challenge let you re-roll dice, which avoids complicated math associated with modifiers, plus who doesn't love rolling dice!
Dreamchaser perfectly balances gaming with collaborative story-telling. It works great as a one shot introduction to rpgs. I reccomend anyone who looking for a fun game to play with a group of friends pick this up.
