zi>Back to Bed is an artistic 3D puzzle game with a surreal twist. Bob is an unlucky narcoleptic who has a tendency of falling asleep in his boring office and then proceeding to sleepwalk into the dangers of the big city. Luckily, Bob has a subconscious guardian named Subob, who protects the sleepwalker and guides him back to the safety of his bed.

The ever-vigilant Subob must lead Bob on a journey through a series of surreal painting-like cityscapes, where the boundary between Bob's dreams and reality have vanished.

The first ever game from Bedtime actually started out as a student DADIU project, which even won the 2013 IGF Student Showcase award! The game concept is simple enough, to act as the subconsciousness of the sleepwalking Bob, guiding him away from dangers in MC Escher inspired landscapes.
