In Strawberry Shortcake Adventures in the Land of Dreams, players will guide Miss Shortcake through the Land of Dreams to build new night visions for her friends Orange Blossom, Ginger Snap, and Raspberry Torte. Strawberry Shortcake must make it through eight levels in such environments as Strawberryland, the Dreamboat, the Land of Dreams, and the Dream Factory, while avoiding pits and enemies including Berry birds. Along the way, Strawberry Shortcake can obtain special powers by unlocking dreams that contain a specified skill. She can also plant seeds in the Fantasy Garden Bonus Area to reach high places and collect bonus items. Players are challenged with a more difficult task each time a new friend asks for Strawberry Shortcakes's help.
