A 3D platformed based on the Smurfs licence. In The Smurfs: Dreams we traverse beautiful lands, trying to wake up the Smurfs affected by Gargamel's curse. We also solve puzzles, jump on platforms and fight. The game supports both singleplayer and local coop on a shared screen.
The Smurfs: Dreams is a 3D platformer based on the license of extremely popular comic books, TV series and animated movies. The team behind the development of this project is Ocellus. They have a similar genre game in their portfolio - Marsupilami: Hoobadventure.
The story told in The Smurfs: Dreams focuses on the new plan of the sinister Gargamel. Wanting to finally catch the Smurfs, their archenemy placed a curse on the sarsaparilla bushes, causing his victims to fall into a deep sleep after eating their delicious leaves. We play as one of the Smurfs during the game. Our task is to wake up all the other Smurfs before Gargamel manages to reach the village.
In The Smurfs: Dreams we watch the action from a bird's eye view. The adventure leads us through various dream lands. Although the levels are joyful and colorful, they can turn into nightmares. The individual Smurfs have to cope with that in order to break Gargamel's curse and wake up.
While traversing subsequent locations, we jump on platforms, avoid traps and terrain obstacles, and solve ingenious environmental puzzles. We also have to face opponents, among which powerful bosses are the most dangerous ones.
On the way, we collect magical balls and patterns that allow us to customize the appearance of our Smurf according to individual preferences.
The Smurfs: Dreams game allows us to play alone or in cooperation mode on a shared screen.
The graphic design of The Smurfs: Dreams is maintained in a cartoon style.

Capsule Computers: 6 / 10 by Dustin Spencer
The Smurfs: Dreams is a functioning platformer, but never quite taps into enough of that magic to bring us an interesting experience to the namesake. They may be pretty, but these lands feel a bit vacant of charm and personality.
Worth Playing: 7.5 / 10 by Cody Medellin
Like its predecessors, The Smurfs: Dreams is a pleasant surprise. The gameplay takes the more recent platforming template and ensures it feels solid while also adding in a few twists to spice things up. There's a nice balance between being easy and having some challenge. The presentation complements this by being pleasing all around. Provided that the big traversal bug gets fixed, you're looking at a game that is well worth checking out - even for platforming fans that aren't even fans of The Smurfs.

The biggest surprise? I’m actually recommending a game about Smurfs. Whether you love or loathe the IP, there’s no denying The Smurfs – Dreams is a solid 3D platformer. While it borrows heavily from other games, there’s enough originality to make it worth checking out, especially for collectable platforming fans. The co-op mode adds to the appeal, making it a great option for playing with someone else. If you love platformers, I honestly recommend giving this a try, even if you’re not a Smurfs fan. I’m as surprised as anyone to say that! Still not convinced? Check out the free demo on the eShop.
