14!''The Dreamy Rainbow Series''
15'''''Tropes that apply to the entire series:'''''
16* AllJustADream: The premise of the series, though it's more like a nightmare. [[spoiler:The third game is apparently an exception.]]
17* BodyHorror: [[spoiler:Pinkie Pie appears as a sort of walking corpse very briefly at the very end of the second and third game.]]
18* {{Chiaroscuro}}: Most of the dream sequences have heavy foreground lighting.
19* {{Creepypasta}}: A sort of SpiritualSequel to ''VideoGame/LunaGame'' -- like it, inspired by creepypasta stories.
20* InterfaceScrew: Many through each game. For example, at the end of the third game, the player's cursor will momentarily shake out of control.
21* {{Jumpscare}}: Usually of Pinkie Pie.
22* {{Minimalism}}: The game's backgrounds and music are not very complex. Much of the dream takes place in grey and red areas with black platforms, while the music is often little more than a few notes or heartbeats.
23* MoodWhiplash: Immediately at the start of each nightmare scene.
24* NightmareFace: [[spoiler:Pinkie Pie and Twilight in the third.]]
25* NightmareSequence: The setting of the first two games; [[spoiler:the third was stated to be something Rainbow Dash was actually experiencing.]]
26* PsychologicalHorror: Seems to be what Rainbow Dash is going through, as all of this happens in her dreams.
27* PsychologicalTormentZone: The [[DyingDream nightmares]].
28* SpiritualSuccessor: To the VideoGame/LunaGame series.

31!!''Dreamy Rainbow''
32
33* AWinnerIsYou:
34-->''Well Done... Die Now!''
35* AsceticAesthetic: The entire setting is very minimalist and two-toned.
36
37!!''Dreamy Rainbow 2''
38
39* AddressingThePlayer: Without you even ''entering'' your name in. The game gets it from your user's name on the computer:
40-->''Well... (USERNAME)?''
41* {{Angrish}}: Not {{Angrish}}, per se, but something along the lines of inane, garbled gibberish:\
42'''''[=YESB3ZWXSiGRVBMUSiHLVDSDYZSBHBWFGAW5NiSAG=]'''''
43* {{Foreshadowing}}: Starting up the game during the daytime will just have it remain on a scene of Ponyville in the day. This quote tells the player what they should do:
44-->''"You should really come tonight."''
45* FreezeFrameBonus: Towards the end of the game, a final Pinkie Pie duplicate appears, [[spoiler: but this time she is bloodied and mangled. Static cuts the game off before the player can get a good look at her. This Pinkie appears again at the end of the third game, but it's much easier to see her appearance.]]
46* HeartbeatSoundtrack: Plays through much of the dream.
47* SelfDuplication: Pinkie Pie appears several times in front of Rainbow Dash before disseminating.
48
49!!''Dreamy Rainbow 3''
50
51
52* TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: The game ends with a black screen that says "END", which is then scribbled out and replaced with "NO!" in red text before the game shuts itself off. The player then loses control of their mouse for a few seconds, before a Notepad file appears, once again using the [[AddressingThePlayer name of the player]] and stating that "she" is coming.
53* JumpScare: [[spoiler:When Pinkie Pie--with a maniacal expression--quickly sneaks up on Rainbow Dash, which then cuts to a closeup of Twilight's NightmareFace.]]
54* HeartbeatSoundtrack: Again a large majority of the soundtrack.
55* HellishPupils[=/=]BlackEyesOfCrazy: [[spoiler:Pinkie Pie and Twilight.]]
56* {{Homage}}: Princess Luna appears by Rainbow Dash at the end of the game. She then walks away and disappears, as a likely reference to the [[VideoGame/LunaGame Luna Game series.]]
57* NothingIsScarier: The scene at the gala abruptly cuts off to a creepy, moving picture of Pinkie Pie, then to a completely black area, with no music. Rainbow's expression changes to one of fear.
58* OhCrap: When Rainbow Dash's facial expression shifts from normal to increasingly frightened/terrified This is the only time in the series this happens.
59* TagLine:
60-->''"No escape!"''
61-->''"The first two games were only a dream...But the third one......Is going to reality!"''
62

64-->''[[AC:Don't go...\
