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.

Game Ratings for The Smurfs: Dreams Video Game.
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.
Pure Dead Gaming: 8 / 10
The Smurfs: Dreams is a delightful and heart warming game that successfully captures the magic of the Smurfs franchise. Its vibrant visuals, whimsical soundtrack and fun gameplay all combine to make the best Smurfs game to date in my opinion. Whether solo or with a friend, jump into the dream worlds, and embark on a magical journey. It’s a dream come true for any Smurf enthusiast!
WayTooManyGames: 7.5 / 10 by Leonardo Faria
Levels are a bit too long, and the platforming could have been a bit better, but all in all, The Smurfs: Dreams is a pleasant surprise. With great visuals, a spectacular orchestrated soundtrack, and quite a lot of content, I simply wasn’t expecting to like this little guy as much as I did. In a console full of platforming juggernauts such as the Switch, it might be hard to justify purchasing it if you’re not exactly a fan of the Smurfs franchise, but I’d still recommend it to any platforming fan.
