In 2004, Japanese freeware developer Kikiyama created a game titled Yume Nikki (Japanese for "Dream Diary") in RPG Maker. The result was a surreal, abstract Art Game with elements of Psychological Horror about lucid dreaming which gained a dedicated cult following in its heyday. Much of the appeal comes from the fact that everything in Yume Nikki, from the story to the imagery, is left up to the player to interpret.You play as Madotsuki, a hikikomori shut-in who refuses to leave her apartment. There isn't much to do beyond sleeping, but that's where the game really kicks off. Madotsuki enters different worlds in her dreamscape and explores them, interacting with strange, alien-like creatures and collecting "Effects" which appear in the form of eggs. The goal is to collect all 24 effects and drop them off in the nexus, after which the ending will be unlocked. There isn't really a definitive plot to speak of, only vague implications of a background story, and very little (if any) instruction is given to the player.The current version of Yume Nikki, 0.10, was released in October 2007 along with an English translation of the effects and menus. Download, and have fun playing this in the dead of night!For French tropers, the game was fully translated in Molière's language and is available for download here.Despite being a small, minimalistic game, Yume Nikki became very influential in the indie game sphere. The surrealism combined with the lack of dialogue and defined plot made the game very popular for theorists and creators of fan works that run with many different interpretations. The simplistic design has also inspired a whole slew of fangames that take the formula and apply it to their own dream worlds (enough to have their own very active wiki), and more broadly, it was one of the games that popularized the Explorer Horror genre; even outside of direct fangames, many indie titles, particularly of the horror variety, openly take inspiration from this game, such as Doki Doki Literature Club!, Undertale, OMORI, and the LISA trilogy.In February 2013, yumenikki.net (no longer active) began offering merchandise. The most notable of such products was a manga, created by Hitoshi Tomizawa of Alien Nine fame. Here, Madotsuki is a girl who finds herself trapped in the dream world, and collects the effects while exploring in an attempt to find a way out. Soon, a sinister plot by eldritch forces is unveiled, and it becomes apparent that Madotsuki is far from their only victim.Other works included a novel and an album of remixed songs. The manga and novel are not intended to have bearing on anybody's interpretations of the game, rather, they are merely their own creators' ideas.The game got a Steam release on January 9, 2018, still free of charge, as a lead-up to the next Yume Nikki project. At the end of the countdown, a new 3D adventure game called YUMENIKKI -DREAM DIARY- was announced and would be supervised by Kikiyama. It was released on both Steam and Playism on 23 February, 2018. Unlike the original, this one is a 3D exploration and puts more emphasis on puzzle-solving and light platforming. Here, Madotsuki must collect eggs hidden behind the worlds of the nexus. Playism later released a 2.0 version for the game, which adds new content to the game, on 24 May, 2018. A port for the Nintendo Switch was released on 21 February, 2019. Here's the teaser trailer and the gameplay trailer.Not related to Mirai Nikki.

Pop-Cultural Osmosis: While the game has always been relatively well-known in the indie game sphere for its surrealist content, quite a few works that it has inspired have gone on to overshadow the game itself. See how many people only know about Uboa as "the character that inspired W.D. Gaster".

Ambiguous Situation: There's no dialogue of any kind, nor anything that might even pass for an Info Dump. All the player is given is a series of surreal, disjointed open worlds to explore and a set of effects they can use to interact with those worlds. Naturally, fan interpretations of every little thing abound.

The residents of the Settlement locked their doors for similar reasons.

Mythology Gag
 Yume Nikki (Video Game) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Madotsuki's drawings in her diary are taken from Kikiyama's original sketches. Monoko assumes her multi-armed form at the end of the city area when you find her in the corner. The achievements use the sprites from the original Yume Nikki game, complete with border from said game. The music room still exists in the mall. You get the flute/recorder effect from the same NPC although you can't change the border of your menu by asking the Toriningen at the counter. The area where you can find the Toriningen party is accessible although the Toriningen aren't there. The radio even plays the original music from that encounter. The opening has Madotsuki, on her way home from a convenience store, encounter a pool of blood on the ground before the screen fades and a "thud" is heard. A nod to Madotsuki's suicide at the end of the first game. Upon clearing a door, an Effect egg appears next to it. Madotsuki has the Nexus hung on her wall in the real world. Closet Madotsuki is found on a platform to the right of where you obtain the lamp effect. The Pain Blob is used to destroy the barricade in the Dream within a Dream segment of the school so you could reach Monoe. You enter Kyuukyuu-kun's room the same way you did in the original game: Through a zipper in the wall that had to be mutilated. Returning to the stairs and entering the door past Kyuukyuu-kun lets you meet FACE again. When fleeing from the Shadow in the apartment, some obstacles thrown at you are the Nenrikiddo, which would transport you to Hell in the original game. The Ao Oni game uses the style of the FC world and Madotsuki resembles her FC sprite. Monoko, Monoe, and Poniko are given FC sprite versions. The rooftop of the mall can be visited, albeit getting there requires some research. When you approach the broom next to the exit, music from the Witch Flight event, which took place on the mall rooftop in the original, plays. The entirety of the secret ending, which has Madotsuki taken to Seccom-Masada's spaceship, complete with Masada playing the ending theme and the bed.

Empty Shell: Nearly all of the characters Madotsuki sees in her dreams are this, being nothing more than fragments of her imagination. Madotsuki herself may also be one, as she lacks any personality other than what's shown in her dreams, forcing you to fill in this void and come up with your own interpretation.

Cut and Paste Environments: Some rooms seem like part of a larger area, but are actually entirely separate from it. Examples include the secret room Hell's Crossroads, which is smaller and simpler than its more major counterpart, and the second Wilderness area, which serves only to connect the Teleport Maze and the Famicom World. A case of Tropes Are Not Bad, as this trope is used to induce Mind Screw and Empty Room Psych.

Game-Breaking Bug: Parodied in the 8-bit dungeon with a particular event where "talking" to a seemingly-nondescript wall tile will cause it to bring up a dialogue box with nothing in itnote Normally, dialogue boxes in the dungeon bring up a string of cryptic numbers, and repeated interactions with it will cause the graphics to corrupt and the game to eventually "crash" 8-bit style, followed by Madotsuki waking up.

Adapted Out: Many areas from the original game were removed from the remake. Examples being Hell, the Numbers World, the Grafitti World and the White Desert. The same goes for a majority of the effects from the original game.

The Hero Dies
 Yume Nikki (Video Game) / int_382a6399
comment
The Hero Dies: In the ending, Madotsuki jumps off her balcony and dies, but even this is ambiguous. In fact, some cite the fact that dream world jellyfish appear near Madotsuki's blood pool as proof that Madotsuki didn't die, or that the real world was ALSO All Just a Dream (as in another layer in her dreams). Although, others say they are shinigami or messengers of death and others say that they symbolize that Madotsuki wouldn't be able to escape her dreams even in death Either way, it is still unclear if she ACTUALLY died and what is seen is left up to speculation.

Nightmare Fuel Coloring Book: The White Desert certainly evokes this style, being completely white with black "drawings" and splashes of red here and there, and containing a lot of Body Horror creatures drawn in a childish style. The creepy portraits you can glimpse in the sewers qualify as well.

Fan Sequel: Interestingly, Yume Nikki seems to have spawned a sort of "genre" referred to as Yume Nikki Fangames. However, knowledge of the original game is seldom required - if anything, they are more like "games in the same style", and the resemblance to the original game wavers between fangame to fangame. A list of fangames with their own pages can be found here. Neftelia is a similar game in premise and spirit, but also takes its own direction to become something unique but in the same exploration genre of sorts. For the rest of them, this wiki is a very comprehensive reference database, with screenshots, guides, download links and categorization by languages available.

Narrative Filigree: Or whatever the gameplay equivalent would be, considering there's practically no narrative to start with. Even considering that, though, most of the twenty-four collectible effects your character can get have little to no gameplay purpose, only changing Madotsuki's appearance or aspects of the environment in inconsequential ways.

Ambiguous Time Period: The Famicom in Madotsuki's room suggests that the game could take place as far back as The '80s (though one of the dream world is a clear homage to EarthBound Beginnings, which was released in Japan in 1989), but it could otherwise be set anywhere between then and the Turn of the Millennium (when the game was made).

Gainax Ending: The last chapter ends abruptly and leaves much unexplained. After Poniko stabs Madotsuki's diary, Mars-san erupts as a giant from the window symbol on Madotsuki's shirt. Masada restores Madotsuki by throwing the effects, after which Madotsuki walks to the stairs in her veranda so she can truly wake up.

Foreshadowing: One may notice a recurring bloodstain on the ground in the dream world. Several are located near the recurring Mouth Monsters. Also, in the flying broomstick event, if you try to get off of your broom in mid-flight, you end up falling to your death. Well, at least you wake up before anything seriously detrimental happens. But you don't at the end of the game. NASU is a game about catching eggplants, and when one (inevitably) hits the ground the game ends. At the end of the game Madotsuki hits the ground and the game ends.

Homage: One of the areas of the game is rendered in an 8-bit style reminiscent of EarthBound Beginnings. Even the Effects menu transforms to fit the motif. Furthermore, the Pink Sea and its buildings resemble that game's Magicant. The NPCs in the Famicom world bear a striking resemblance◊ to those from Bokosuka Wars. Remember when your game would crash because the cartridge wasn't inserted correctly or was dirty? There is an event that simulates that. One particular event - possibly the same one - has the game start glitching if the player checks one tile over and over again, eventually leading to a 'hard lock'. This one is in reference to a similar glitch in EarthBound. The turtleneck-wearing Seccom Masada and his minimalist spaceship with its large view port are quite possibly inspired◊ by Carl Sagan and Cosmos.

Saved for the Sequel: One of the selling points of the remake. Characters that were planned to appear in the original game are finally going to see the light of day in the remake.

Mood Whiplash: Right as Madotsuki was thankful for meeting a normal person in her dreams, Poniko turns into Uboa without any provocation. So it's surprising even to players who wondered what would cause her to transform.

Ascended Extra: It seems Monoe is getting a larger role in the remake, judging by the teaser and◊ some◊ screenshots. One of the sewer creature drawings appears in one of the Ghost Town homes and that creature appears in the flesh in a downscaled Mural World. Recognizing that it's what the drawing depicts when the ghost person in there is giving a hint is part of the puzzle.

Non-Human Head: With the Eye Palm effect on, Madotsuki dreams that her head is a hand with an eye in the palm. Blinking returns her to the central hub. Another effect replaces her head with a functioning street lamp. The Toriningen resemble tall girls with the heads of birds. Eerie, silly birds.

Broken Bridge: Effects are sometimes needed to access hidden areas, such as using the Kitchen Knife effect to cut through a conspicuous part of a wall, or equipping the Midget effect to enter a tiny hole in the ground. Interestingly, only one-of-two effects are absolutely necessary to use at least once to complete the game: the Umbrella and Yuki-Onna effects, which douse a burning doorway so Madotsuki can reach the Poop Hair effect.

Nothing Is Scarier: The message boxes, which appear before the "Glitch" event, are unsettlingly empty. So is the entire dungeon area, which is dark (necessitating the use of the Lamp effect if you wanna see where you're going), and the room where the event occurs is an eerie, nondescript dead-end. See also the Empty Room Psych example above. This also applies anywhere no NPCs can be found in.

Developer's Foresight: Madotsuki can't pinch herself awake when she's been turned into a snowman, a severed head or a traffic light. Why? No arms! Turning yourself into a snowman (without using the Yuki-Onna effect) and going down to the fire by the Storage Room's entrance causes her to slowly melt.

Dream Within a Dream: There are five beds that can be found in Madotsuki's Dream Land, and one of them allows her to access the Staircase of Hands; which bed does this is randomized every time she falls asleep. Following a path after that allows Madotsuki to enter a Spaceship and meet Seccom Masada. After that, Madotsuki can sleep in yet another bed inside the spaceship, only to wake up in the same place, just as the spaceship crashes on Mars. Due to this, some fans have speculated or interpreted that all of the game is just a dream.

No Antagonist: Due to the game having a vague plot at best and only one enemy type, there is no real antagonist in Madotsuki's quest to find all the Effects. There are many frightening monsters in the nightmare world, but almost none of them actively try to harm Madotsuki- the only exception, the Toriningen, are more scattered enemies than an overarching antagonistic force.

Swallowed Whole: Stepping in Big Red's mouth causes him to swallow Madotsuki and send her to the Windmill World.

Deconstruction Game: Gameplay-wise, the game takes non-linear exploration to its logical extreme, basing itself entirely on traversing Beautiful Void and little else.

Hatsuyume: Interestingly, the new iteration of NASU seems to reference this Japanese tradition about a lucky dream featuring Mount Fuji, a hawk and an eggplant. The background features a mountain that is most likely Mt. Fuji, and the eggplants are being carried by what seems a hawk. It all ties in with the central theme of dreams, of course.

Creepy Child: Madotsuki could be interpreted as this. She is a quiet Hikikomori who has no qualms about stabbing numerous innocent creatures to death within her highly disturbing dreamscape.

Earn Your Happy Ending: In contrast to the original, the game takes a page from a popular fanmade alternate ending and has Madotsuki finally getting the courage to leave her apartment after facing an assortment of truly bizarre nightmares as the main ending.

Ambiguously Related: Poniko calls Madotsuki the daughter she aborted, and Poniko states to have dyed her hair blond, but with her being an Unreliable Narrator and that account contradicting earlier scenes with Madotsuki in teen years, their connection is still up in the air.

Video Game Cruelty Potential: You can stab virtually anything with the Kitchen Knife effect, which sometimes gives you money. There's a reason some depictions of Madotsuki are gleefully homicidal.

Random Event
 Yume Nikki (Video Game) / int_f9a49c92
comment
Random Event: Triggering the Uboa event is a 1-in-64 chance. The element of surprise makes it all the more terrifying. The Mars event has a 1 in 6 chance, contrary to most events having 1 in 64. A particular event in the White Desert has a whopping 1 in 3600 chance. Though this is generated for each step, so walking around for a few minutes will usually trigger it. It's called Takofuusen (octopus balloon), by the way. Some believe it's actually this. Warning! Squick! A more straight example is money, which randomly drops from killed foes. The "KALIMBA" event on Madotsuki's TV has a 1/8 chance of appearing when the TV is switched on in the dream world.

Video Game Cruelty Punishment: Stabbing a sane Toriningen will make her hostile. Stabbing one of the sane ones in the number world might cause the area where you get the Severed Head effect to be larger, with more Toriningen chasing you. Also, if you make one Toriningen mad, they all get mad, and will stay mad until the next time you wake up.
