Why do I always dream up the best games

I just had one of the best dreams I've had since a long time. The time span of the dream itself took about two or three weeks. Although some of the stuff that happens in the dream itself was absurd. It started off with some sort of experiment game. I was teamed up with 3 other people and we were in a group of 4, where we would travel around to difference places in this plane like vehicle. I never recall taking off, but I remember always waiting for it. It just kind of got us from place to place. So we traveled as a group of like 60. All of us doing some sort of challenge and the winner of the challenge in your group get's priority sleeping. We had to sleep outside for this experiment. This portion of the dream focused on just the whole sleeping experience. By priority sleeping I mean, you get a blanket basically and you make all the rules. The first night I won and had the blanket. While sleeping outside we had this small narrow metal phone booth like thing cover about 80% of your body. There was also an opening at the top of the structure that worked very similar to the plastic window blinds, but was made out of metal. Just so happened that the first night was raining, everyone except my booth had their blinds opened. And we thought there was no way of closing it because it was our first night and it was dark and we couldn't see anything. The booths were wide enough to just cover on person. So that night I was the only one that didn't get wet from the rain and had a blanket. In the morning I found the switch to close the roof of these booths. It alternated from whoever won the challenge that gets a good night sleep. We would accumulate items as days went on so in the end we had gotten ourselves a few pillows and another blanket. The blanket was big enough to share between 3 people if everyone snuggled up together. Again with the leader of the night making up the rules, we had to confirm that it was okay to share the blanket. I had a good team so we were always able to share the blanket. Stuff would happen in the middle of the night as well that the other 3 would have to deal with, which the leader gets to sleep through. Each booth had a phone, and sometimes they would ring randomly in the middle of the night to tell you to do something, or brief you on the challenge for the next day. I remember spending about a week and a half doing this and how we were saying it'll take us a good couple of days before we all adjust to these extreme sleeping conditions. I actually woke up and got some water and went back to sleep and my dream changed slightly where the challenge was the main focus of the dream now. This part of the dream was the best part because it took place in a really big old school. Like imagine Hogwarts like school if you can. Well we took this airplane like vehicle to this place and we were not staying there long, we were just doing some night patrol for the school. This whole dream was like borderlands though, and the guns were like nerf/laser/paint guns rather than real guns. I assume I was the hunter as I had a Bloodwing, it didn't really attack people more so just found them for me. the people that was a part of my group was the siren, soldier and berserker, I started off this challenge with a regular pistol. I also had only two holsters for guns. It just all out turned into a huge team death match style game that spanned over the whole school. The guns even had stat windows so you get to compare which was better. So I'm running through playing and we were just owning up everyone else that played. You were able to find guns in lockers, garbage piles, trash cans, in desk. Pretty much anywhere you can think of in a school to hide them. The other players that you beat, they have to drop their guns as well, so once you beat them, their weapons were up for grabs if they were better than yours. We got to about the end where we fought against this one guy that didn't follow the rules and I was going to just lay a beating to him physically because he was such a dick. I had a laser machine gun, double barrel nerf pistol and two paint guns (By paint think a water gun replaced with paint, not paint ball) There are no rules of how many guns you can hold, as long as you can hold it. So I had my two gun holsters, one in my hand and then another one in my pocket, The paint guns were a colour of red and green. So I end up chasing this one guy down for about 30 minutes cause he was running away from us. It was some intense game of hide and seek then destroy haha. I was really adamant about finding him, and the other guy was about getting away. Both our teammates didn't care too much. He had the ability to turn invisible so he was able to get away a lot. I finally caught him before he turned invisible and shot him with my green paint gun, which just so happens to glow in the dark as well. So I made sure to cover a his shoes with a fair amount so I can track him down. So he ran off while invisible and then I met back up with my group, told them that I have him beat now as he can't run away anymore. Now playing this game in a dark school was awesome. Cause the light switches for a completely level of the school was conveniently placed at the top/bottom of the stairs of each level. The paint is invisible on all surfaces except the players when in light. So when I turned off the light you just see this trail of glow in the dark paint to where the guy was hiding, I found him in some bathroom, where I had to tackle this invisible form. It was weird cause he was physically there but you couldn't see him so you're just struggling with nothing, it looked really weird. So in the end caught him and that ended our game, and it was nearing dawn now at this point as we were walking down this corridor all 60 of us as we were heading back to that mystery vehicle. While carrying our guns still we saw at the other end a bunch of kids and one person decides to shout out something like "We are the zero hour patrol, state your purpose here" and these kids were like 9 and started freaking out and the teachers had to talk to us about not scaring kids. I woke up right before bordering the vehicle, but the last thing I remember was this school had window wipers for their windows. Except they didn't work too well because it was the trees that moved and wiped the windows.
