Based on the animated film Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland, itself derived from Winsor McCay's early 20th-century comic strip, this 1990 Capcom game sends the boy Nemo into the dreams of Slumberland. Nemo's only attack is throwing candy, and its real purpose is to feed animals until they fall asleep, at which point he can climb inside and use their abilities.
That ability-swapping idea drives the level design. A frog jumps high, a mole digs, a gorilla climbs and punches, a lizard climbs walls, and a bee flies, and each stage is built around a mix of animals that open different paths. In most stages the goal is to find a set number of keys before the exit door opens. The soft pastel visuals and gentle music suit the dream theme, but later stages are demanding, and the final stretch is notably tough.
Tips for Little Nemo: The Dream Master
Keep feeding an animal candy until sleeping symbols appear; then it can be ridden.
Before you leave a creature, check whether another part of the stage requires its ability.
Count keys; the exit door does not open until you have collected all of them.
