SID brings the concept of the game back under the control of the players involved, at once combining the natural ease of conversation and storytelling with the self-contained, individually directed experiences offered by film and modern video games.

A new type of adventure game that turns storytelling into play. Sleep is Death has few peers and enormous potential. [June 2010, p.100]
PC Format
A breath of fresh air. [July 2010, p.96]

Sleep Is Death could definitely use some refining, but if you're willing to struggle a bit with its obtuse interface, the game's potential entertainment is practically limitless.

Ultimately, Sleep Is Death is as gripping or uninteresting as those playing it; its a digital canvas for people’s imagination and a window into their personalities.
Read Full Review >LEVEL (Czech Republic)
A successful videogame experiment which requires a creative community to make new stories and two players who enjoy this “30sec” adrenaline adventure. [Issue#191]
GameZone
In fact, the one thing you won’t do in this game is sleep, as the time-limit tension makes every storytelling collaboration a nerve-wracking, but often rewarding experience.
