Summary

Redream is a Dreamcast emulator for playing games from Sega’s Dreamcast library. It runs on Android, Linux, macOS, and Windows. The homepage says games can be rendered at 1080p or 4K, and that players can add games without setting up a controller or supplying BIOS or flash files. Redream lists widescreen codes, automatic cover art, save states, and cheat support. The homepage says more than 95% of the Dreamcast library can be played from beginning to end; the download page puts that figure above 96% and says that portion can be played at no cost. The download page also describes Redream as free to use on supported platforms. Premium is a one-time upgrade that works across those platforms, with pay-what-you-want amounts of $6, $8, $10, or $20. Premium adds high-definition rendering, multiple save-state slots per game, and a custom Discord server role. The homepage says the package is under 4 megabytes and can deliver smooth 60 Hz on decade-old desktops and mobile phones.
