Braingirl:Effects

Across the many locations within the dream world, there are 2 effects, as well as 2 items that Mikan can acquire.

These effects may alter Mikan's appearance, grant unique abilities for cosmetic or practical purposes, or affect interactions with certain elements throughout her dreams.

Items on the other hand don’t alter how Mikan looks, however they can also be used by her in practical ways.

Do keep in mind that Braingirl is a work in progress; as such, this page is subject to further changes across future versions.

Trivia

• In the menu, Effects have a rhombus shape next to their name, while Items have a circle/dot instead. Notably, Instructions have a right arrow instead.
• If you wake up while Marble Soda’s speed boost is still active, the speed boost will continue to be active for some time. This is most likely unintentional.
• When Marble Soda’s speed boost wears off, the screen shakes a little to indicate that.
• Marble Soda can be purchased multiple times.
• Entry Ticket cannot be equipped in either the dream world or the real world, similarly to Yume 2kki’s Key.
• All of the currently obtainable effects and items can be acquired in the Terminal Room if Debug Mode is on.
