Description
*Symon* is a point-and-click adventure game that takes place inside the dreams of a paralyzed patient. The puzzles are procedurally generated, so it can be replayed many times. There is not a single walkthrough, the key is understanding Symon’s mind. Each dream world is populated with characters and objects that represent his past; each time he returns to the dream state, the puzzles are different. Through exploration of the pensive and sentimental dreamscape, he rediscovers repressed memories and tries to reconcile his troubled past.
The game requires the player to think differently, stepping out of the normal boundaries of conventional adventure game logic. *Symon* places a heavy emphasis on dream-logic, using memory and concepts of synesthesia to form the connections required to solve the puzzles.

Oh you silly man eating plant, you didn't learn the first time nor the second. By the third I would have thought that you'd just hand over what I want.

Actually I dont mind having no ending because I think this game was meant to be endless and pointless. Symon is inside a hospital aimlessly dreaming about the past and what he could have done to make it better, but all that would never actually come true and all he can do now is to just regret about them for the rest of his life. There is no such thing as a happy ending in this journey. I think this no-ending concept worked pretty well.

"Hmm, my music box is playing melancholic music... I'll just dip it in the sink to make it play happy music!"
As for the rest, love the idea of the game, but you can see through it after a puzzle or two.

It's a good game. Pretty sad. But i found the puzzles to be a little repetitive.
