Description

A Dream of Burning Sand is an action-adventure-platformer game. Amani is an assistant librarian and would-be sorceress trying to save her world from the Burning King. Nina is a girl who after a traffic accident gained the ability to travel to another world in her dreams. Together they face skeletal warriors, ghosts, ghouls, thieves, phantasms, and a variety of hostile wildlife.

History
