Dreamhealer is a roguelite deckbuilder and sanctuary management video game, where you assume the role of a young Healer (Curandera) who embarks on spiritual journeys to heal her community through dreams. While most narrative games focus on specific characters, this project aims to tell the story of a community through its mechanics. When the adults leave to defend the ancestral lands from an invasion, only the children and elders remain. In this context, players take on the role of a prodigious girl who can heal through dreams and has taken on the role of a healer at a young age. Guided by her grandmother, the protagonist conducts collective healing ceremonies, experienced as explorations of the dream realm to alleviate the ailments of the sleeping patients in the sanctuary. By combining management concepts applied to a healing site and roguelite deckbuilding mechanics for each foray into the dream world, players can embark on exciting and adventurous journeys while delving deep into the history of the community they are helping to heal.
