Didn’t really click with this story unfortunately I don’t really feel like it got going

An unremarkable story. The Doctor and Vicki, after escaping a pirate attack, wander in a jungle with dangerous dream mist.

And that’s about it really. We wander for 25 minutes. Then the realization is comes that the jungle isn’t real and it is all a dream. We wake up and problem solved, basically.

It’s just not very unique. It tells us very little about the dream mist, yet we have to understand all these twists about it. The connection to the dream and Steven is still not quite clear to me, and I don’t think that’s a fault on my side.

Maybe it would have helped if the guide-character in the dream had a bit more of Steven’s personality and quirks. Maybe he has a giant pet panda. Maybe a fear of being alone, maybe the enemies could be Steven-related. Something that hints more to it being Steven’s dream. That wouldn’t entirely fix the twist, but make it a bit more fulfilling.

For now, It’s just a bit of wandering with an unearned twist. Nothing too special. Let’s move along to the next one.
