Dream House was a Commodore 64 game created by Joyce Hakansson Associates, released in 1984 by CBS Electronics.
Dream House was an unusual game for its time: the player was designing and, afterwards, testing the house of his dreams. From the sinks to the wall colors, from the roof to the appliances, nearly everything was a choice for the player.[3] One of the rooms even featured a secret passageway. Players can choose from a colonial farmhouse and other realistic properties.[3] Every house had a living room, a kitchen, two bedroom, and a bathroom.[3] The game hard realistic features for the era including a weather vane and a windmill on the barns.[3]
