Much as in Peter and the Wolf, you'll want to hide when that orchestra starts playing. If that isn't enough to scare you, the sound effects are bound to give you a chill. You're also being tracked by a monster who seems keenly aware of where you are at any given moment. There are some puzzles - which mostly involve looking for keys or other missing objects - but a lot of the challenge comes from just being able to figure out how to get from point A to point B when you're not tall enough to see over the furniture.

With Teddy as your glowing guide and your 2-year-old motor skills, you must explore a dark, dreamlike version of your home to seek out memories to help you find your mother, avoid the monster that seems to be lurking around every turn, and figure out just what's going on. Awakened and upset, you set out in search of Teddy and your mother, only to find that the house looks very different at night than it did during the day. Later in the night while you sleep, Teddy is removed from your crib. After escaping a playpen, you meet Teddy, a talking, walking, glowing stuffed bear. AMONG THE SLEEP gives players the perspective of a child who's celebrating his second birthday with his mother.
