40 Winks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
40 Winks is a children's platformer game published in 1999 by Eurocom Entertainment Software and GT Interactive Software for the Sony PlayStation.
You play as either Ruff or Tumble, a brother and sister who are sleeping and trying to free 40 Winks from a man named Nitekap, and his evil accomplice, Threadbear. In the storyline, "Winks" are small, white creatures which make dreams, and "Hoodwinks", which are green and of a similar size are what are reponsible for nightmares.
Throughout the game, the player has to collect moon-shaped tokens, which are used to scream at dreamly apparitions, and z-shaped tokens which stop the particular character from waking up. Floating cogs are also collected as a means of opening doors. The character travels through such dream worlds as haunted houses, ship wrecks, planets and prehistoric lands. The player is also able to transform into various types of beings, suggested by Ruff & Tumble's mother during the film featurette before the gameplay begins.
A version was planned for the Nintendo 64, but later cancelled.
