The '''Dark World''' is one of the 12 original locations accessible directly from [[The Nexus]].<br />

It is an extremely dark, openly-looping world that is difficult to see without using the [[Effects#Lamp|Lamp effect]] to light it up. Doing so reveals the intricate floor patterns that can be used to navigate. The patterns on the floor mostly resemble designs of Aztec or African masks.


==Points of Interest==
'''Dark World''' (also known as '''Illusionary World''') is one of the twelve [[Yume Nikki:List of Locations#Original Locations|original locations]] accessible directly from the [[Yume Nikki:Nexus|Nexus]].
*This world is very dark, so it is difficult to see characters or objects without using the [[Effects#Lamp|Lamp effect]].
*The [[Effects#Knife|Knife effect]] can be found here. It is picked up off the ground between the two floor patterns that look like hands.
*There are 3 Pissipissini that roam this world. They are barely visible in the darkness.
*The [[Following Ghost]] is also found here. Unlike the other ghosts, it does not give any effects, but will follow Madotsuki erratically if he sees her.


==Interpretations==
==Features==
If the worlds in ''[[Yume Nikki]]'' are intended to be representative [[Madotsuki]]'s thoughts, feelings and memories, then the Dark World would be the representation of a more 'darker' side to Madotsuki's personality. In addition to being literally dark, the fact that the knife rests here links the theory of Madotsuki possibly being violent or a murderer, and that this world reflects her remorse or being guilty; the darkness may point towards Madotsuki's intention to conceal or hide her guilt and misery. Perhaps the ghost "haunts" Madotsuki rather than follow her. The ghost and the Pissipissini may represent the souls of people she has killed and their presence there may suggest an everlasting guilt. The fact that the Pissipissini cannot be stabbed by the knife reinforces this.

Doing so reveals the intricate floor patterns that can be used to navigate. The patterns on the floor mostly resemble designs of [[Yume Nikki:Indigenous Imagery|Aztec or other Mesoamerican]] masks, and the music is ominous but relaxing.


It may also be notable that the Dark World is one of main worlds - the 'original locations' - which suggests that Madotsuki's 'dark side' is more central to her personality than, for example, the yearning to be free hinted of by the [[Events#The Witch's Flight|event that takes place on Mall rooftop]], a deeper location.
Once the map is fully lighted, the [[Yume Nikki:Effects#Knife|Knife]] effect will be much easier to find here. It is picked up off the ground between the two floor patterns that look like hands near the center of the map. A white gate to the [[Yume Nikki:Wilderness|Wilderness]] can be found, contrasting with the darkness. There are three [[Yume Nikki:Pissipissini|Pissipissini]] that roam this world; they are barely visible in the darkness and barely react to the player. A ghost named [[Yume Nikki:Follony|Follony]] is also found here, but unlike the other two ghosts ([[Yume Nikki:Nopperabou Ghost|Nopperabou Ghost]] and [[Yume Nikki:Fleebie|Fleebie]]), it does not give any effects, but will follow Madotsuki erratically if it sees her.


==Connections==
In [[Yume Nikki:Old Versions|previous versions]] of the game up until version 0.09, the floor patterns are gone and Fleebie is found in the area, giving the [[Yume Nikki:Effects#Triangle Kerchief|Triangle Kerchief]] effect.

Dark World (also known as Illusionary World) is one of the twelve original locations accessible directly from the Nexus.

Features

It is an extremely dark, openly-looping world that is difficult to see without using the Lamp effect to light it up. Doing so reveals the intricate floor patterns that can be used to navigate. The patterns on the floor mostly resemble designs of Aztec or other Mesoamerican masks, and the music is ominous but relaxing.

Once the map is fully lighted, the Knife effect will be much easier to find here. It is picked up off the ground between the two floor patterns that look like hands near the center of the map. A white gate to the Wilderness can be found, contrasting with the darkness. There are three Pissipissini that roam this world; they are barely visible in the darkness and barely react to the player. A ghost named Follony is also found here, but unlike the other two ghosts (Nopperabou Ghost and Fleebie), it does not give any effects, but will follow Madotsuki erratically if it sees her.

In previous versions of the game up until version 0.09, the floor patterns are gone and Fleebie is found in the area, giving the Triangle Kerchief effect. Additionally, a purple gate leads the player to the Face Carpet Plaza.

Directions

Nexus → Dark World

Trivia

  • The tiny Knife rests on the ground in this unlit, looping location of massive size. Some fans thus suggest that Madotsuki wanted to hide it away.
  • The fact that the somber Dark World is available to be entered from the Nexus, while various mellow dream locations are harder to reach, has led to speculation regarding Madotsuki and her personality, backstory, or mental state.
  • In previous versions, Fleebie could be found wandering the area and would grant the Triangle Kerchief effect upon being interacted with.
