Quickly, the mother returns with a gift, but the mother doesn’t tell who the gift is from. The mother’s angry tone frightens the toddler, whose fear is presented as blurred vision. The conversation is muffled and partly kept from the player as the mother raises her voice, refusing the persons request to see the child. The celebration is interrupted by a visitor at the front door who is hidden from the player. The story begins as a toddler is having his birthday celebration at his home with his mother. There is no denying that it can be tough to stand out from the pack but Among the Sleep manages to do this by putting you in the shoes of a stumbling two year old child. This fact alone might not sound particularly unique in a medium where first person horror games are in abundance. Among the Sleep is a first person horror adventure game.
