There are 24 proper '''effects''' in ''[[Yume Nikki:Yume Nikki|Yume Nikki]]'' (not including the Instructions). Each effect changes [[Yume Nikki:Madotsuki|Madotsuki]]'s appearance and some provide special abilities.
The main objective in ''[[Yume Nikki:Yume Nikki|Yume Nikki]]'' is to collect the '''24 effects''' found throughout [[Yume Nikki:List of Locations|the dream world]]. Some effects grant unique abilities that can be used to access certain [[Yume Nikki:events|events]] or locations; the rest are mostly cosmetic.


Gathering all 24 effects is considered to be the primary objective of the game, and only when all effects have been gathered can the player see the game's [[Yume Nikki:The Ending|ending]] by leaving them all in the [[Yume Nikki:The Nexus|Nexus]] and waking up.
Effects are found by interacting with objects or [[Yume Nikki:List of Characters#Effect NPCs|certain characters]]. All effect-givers are unique, each appearing only once in the dream world. They can be collected in any order, except for the Poop Hair effect, which requires either the Yuki-onna or Umbrella effect first. It is also recommended to get the Lamp effect early, as a couple other effects require passing through dark areas.


The effects are scattered throughout the [[Yume Nikki:List of Locations|dream world]], and some are easier to find than others. Some are found by touching particular objects whereas others are received from interacting with [[Yume Nikki:List of Characters#Effect NPCs|certain characters]].
Effects can be dropped in the [[Yume Nikki:Nexus|Nexus]] by pressing ''5''. They appear as eggs and are removed from the menu. Once all 24 effects are dropped, the player can access the [[Yume Nikki:Ending|ending]].


While most of the effects are purely cosmetic, there are a few events and locations that are unreachable without them. They can be collected in almost any order, except for the Poop Hair effect, which requires either the Yuki-onna or Umbrella effect first. It is also recommended to get the Lamp effect before attempting to get the Knife or Witch effect, which both require traversing dark areas before getting them.
The name of each effect may be [[Yume Nikki:Translation Differences|different between translations]]. The names used by the ''Uboachan'' fan translation are preferred due to its historic use by most (English-speaking) players. The names of the English Steam translation and mobile release translation are stated below each header, as well as the original Japanese. The effect descriptions are written with Uboachan first, Steam second, and mobile last (only if it differs from Steam).


Descriptions and names in this article are given in the order of fan translation first, official translation second (if different), and original Japanese third.

Effects can be equipped when sitting on the chair for the first time, a main cause of [[Yume Nikki:Glitches|glitches]]. Equipping an effect while in the chair and then riding it will cause the effect to stack with the chair. This results in the passive effect functioning and any effect action (besides sitting down) working as normal.

'''Speculation:''' It's possible this was intended to be the appearance Madotsuki takes on in the [[Yume Nikki:White Desert|White Desert]], as there is no counterpart FC World sprite. If this is the case, then it's likely that it was dropped since it could cause confusion as to whether the White Desert was ''really'' white, or whether the effect was a result of a problem with the player's perception of it (as is the case with old monochrome photos).<br />
Allowing Madotsuki to retain her hues makes it clear that the player's vision is normal and that the world is white.
 
Another idea is that this is an effect that you get from the White Desert that makes Madotsuki (and possibly the room you are in) [[Yume Nikki:Monochrome|monochrome]].

*There are some [[Yume Nikki:Unused Content#Unused Effects|unused effects]] that remain in the files of the game, despite never being implemented in any version.
*When the Steam release of ''Yume Nikki'' first came out, the translation mislabeled many effects with different names, such as the Fat effect being called "Get Fat", the Flute being named "Whistle", the Severed Head being called "Talking Head", the Demon effect being called the "Devil" effect, and the Instructions being called "Game Info". This was fixed 12 days after the original release. The mobile version of the game also features some different names, such as the Midget being named "Dwarf", the Medamaude being called the "Evil Hand", the Nopperabou being called "Faceless", and the Severed Head being called the "Chopped Head".
*The Midget effect has an unused graphic for eight midgets. This graphic also has an FC World counterpart.
**Some of these incorrect names still appear in the [[Yume Nikki:FC Worlds|FC World]] menu, and when dropping the effect eggs in the Nexus.

*In older versions of the game, the spirit headband had a different function: the 1 key would make you gradually less visible, and the 3 key would make you gradually more visible.
*When the English Steam release of ''Yume Nikki'' first came out, the translation used different names for the Fat, Flute, Severed Head, and Demon effects as well as the Instructions, respectively dubbing them "Get Fat", "Whistle", "Talking Head", "Devil", and "Game Info". This was changed 12 days after the original release; the update additionally touched up the descriptions for many effects (including those that were not renamed), ranging from minor grammatical fixes to changing the tone of the text.
*Effects are a common cause of glitches. View [[Yume Nikki:Glitches|the Glitches page]] for more information.
**Some of these incorrect names still appear in the [[Yume Nikki:FC Worlds|FC World]] menu and when picking up dropped effect eggs in the Nexus. Curiously, the incomplete version of the FC World menu only contains the incorrect names for the Fat effect and the Instructions. Additionally, the FC World menu misspells Midget as "Miget" when all 24 effects have been collected.
*In 0.10 and 0.10a, the Witch effect has a bug where, if the player floats with the broom in the Pink Sea, the [[Yume Nikki:Number World#Bed Room|Number World Bed Room]], or the second [[Yume Nikki:Neon Tile Path|Neon Tile Path]] area, the player's footsteps can still be heard while moving around.
**This is due to the fact that every map contains two copies of the same tileset: one for the regular footstep sound effect and one for the broom. 0.09 included the full code for switching between the two tilesets in every map. This was simplified in 0.10, but the three aforementioned maps were not updated.
**The maps still contain leftover data for 0.09's method, and attempting to trigger them with cheats instead corrupts the graphics to the tileset indices changing between builds: the second Neon Tile Path area replaces the pyramids with [[Yume Nikki:Henkei Shita|Henkei Shita]] heads from Footprint Path A (with the full tileset changing to that of [[Yume Nikki:Snow World|Snow World]] when sitting down), the Number World Bed Room's tiles are replaced with those of [[Yume Nikki:Forest World|Forest World]] (except when sitting), and the Pink Sea turns completely invisible due to the game attempting to call blank divider tiles, leaving only a black void.
*In 0.10<!--Someone please check other versions-->, the Triangle Kerchief effect's cheek pinch animation always uses the graphic for the invisible state, even if you wake up while visible.
**The animation for waking up in this state also lacks the sprite transparency that the effect's invisible state typically has.
*In versions before 0.10, some effects had different 1-key actions:
**The Knife effect originally had Madotsuki stab the air instead of switching which hand the knife was in. Despite this action sharing its animation with the effect's actual function, it does not affect NPCs as if they have been stabbed.
**The Triangle Kerchief originally made Madotsuki progressively more transparent when the 1 key was pressed, and less transparent when the 3 key was pressed. Toriningen could also still see and trap Madotsuki if she became fully transparent with the effect.
**In 0.04, the Umbrella and Blonde Hair effects lacked 1-key actions altogether, though they gained their respective actions in 0.06.

Effect eggs in the Nexus.
The effects as they appear in the manga.

The main objective in Yume Nikki is to collect the 24 effects found throughout the dream world. Some effects grant unique abilities that can be used to access certain events or locations; the rest are mostly cosmetic.

Effects are found by interacting with objects or certain characters. All effect-givers are unique, each appearing only once in the dream world. They can be collected in any order, except for the Poop Hair effect, which requires either the Yuki-onna or Umbrella effect first. It is also recommended to get the Lamp effect early, as a couple other effects require passing through dark areas.

Effects can be dropped in the Nexus by pressing 5. They appear as eggs and are removed from the menu. Once all 24 effects are dropped, the player can access the ending.

The name of each effect may be different between translations. The names used by the Uboachan fan translation are preferred due to its historic use by most (English-speaking) players. The names of the English Steam translation and mobile release translation are stated below each header, as well as the original Japanese. The effect descriptions are written with Uboachan first, Steam second, and mobile last (only if it differs from Steam).

Notes: In most cases, this allows you to move characters out of your way without using the Knife effect to kill them. This may be in tune with the Maneki-neko being loosely associated with Guanyin, who is revered in Japan as Kannon (観音), the goddess of mercy and compassion.

Pseudo-effects

These are actions that work like effects, but are not counted as a collectible effect and are not required to finish the game.

Instructions

Tutorial（ゲームのせつめい）

See the instructions again / Review the game's tutorial. / Open the tutorial.

The instructions appear as a menu item like the 24 effects. Using it displays a basic tutorial on how to play the game. Madotsuki starts with this effect and can use it in any area, including the real world.

Instructions.gif Instructions2.gif

Chair

Madotsuki chair faceset.png

The chair in Madotsuki's dream room can be ridden when Madotsuki sits on it. Instead of writing in her diary, sitting at the desk and pressing Z (facing the desk) will let Madotsuki scoot the chair around her bedroom. She can ride the chair almost anywhere in the dream world (albeit very slowly), but will not be able to get off it until she returns it to her desk. Some areas are also inaccessible with the chair:

Effects can be equipped when sitting on the chair for the first time, a main cause of glitches. Equipping an effect while in the chair and then riding it will cause the effect to stack with the chair. This results in the passive effect functioning and any effect action (besides sitting down) working as normal. The aforementioned areas remain inaccessible as Madotsuki is technically still in the chair, with the exception of Docks A, which can be entered from the Sewers if the Midget effect is equipped while in the chair.

Crick in the Neck

Looking Left.png

The only involuntary effect. Madotsuki has a random chance of waking up with a crick in her neck, constantly looking left. She can still sit down on the floor or the chair, but she is unable to write in her diary or play NASU. Going back to sleep and waking up again should solve the problem. If all 24 effect eggs have been dropped in the Nexus to trigger the game's ending, the neck crick will not occur.

Look left sit.png

Although Madotsuki will not dream that she has a crick in her neck, there is a matching FC World sprite that is unused, suggesting that it could have been an actual effect at some point.

Trivia

  • The Frog effect is the only effect that can be found in two separate locations: Forest World and Dense Woods B.
    • The Severed Head effect can technically also be obtained in two different areas, albeit they are variants of one world, them being the normal and big variants of Guillotine World.
  • There are some unused effects that remain in the files of the game, despite never being implemented in any version.
  • The Midget effect has an unused graphic for eight midgets. This graphic also has an FC World counterpart.
  • All the effect names in Japanese are written in kana, even if the words are usually or only written in kanji. Such effects are written in kanji within the game's database.
  • When the English Steam release of Yume Nikki first came out, the translation used different names for the Fat, Flute, Severed Head, and Demon effects as well as the Instructions, respectively dubbing them "Get Fat", "Whistle", "Talking Head", "Devil", and "Game Info". This was changed 12 days after the original release; the update additionally touched up the descriptions for many effects (including those that were not renamed), ranging from minor grammatical fixes to changing the tone of the text.
    • Some of these incorrect names still appear in the FC World menu and when picking up dropped effect eggs in the Nexus. Curiously, the incomplete version of the FC World menu only contains the incorrect names for the Fat effect and the Instructions. Additionally, the FC World menu misspells Midget as "Miget" when all 24 effects have been collected.
  • In 0.10 and 0.10a, the Witch effect has a bug where, if the player floats with the broom in the Pink Sea, the Number World Bed Room, or the second Neon Tile Path area, the player's footsteps can still be heard while moving around.
    • This is due to the fact that every map contains two copies of the same tileset: one for the regular footstep sound effect and one for the broom. 0.09 included the full code for switching between the two tilesets in every map. This was simplified in 0.10, but the three aforementioned maps were not updated.
    • The maps still contain leftover data for 0.09's method, and attempting to trigger them with cheats instead corrupts the graphics to the tileset indices changing between builds: the second Neon Tile Path area replaces the pyramids with Henkei Shita heads from Footprint Path A (with the full tileset changing to that of Snow World when sitting down), the Number World Bed Room's tiles are replaced with those of Forest World (except when sitting), and the Pink Sea turns completely invisible due to the game attempting to call blank divider tiles, leaving only a black void.
  • In 0.10, the Triangle Kerchief effect's cheek pinch animation always uses the graphic for the invisible state, even if you wake up while visible.
    • The animation for waking up in this state also lacks the sprite transparency that the effect's invisible state typically has.
  • In versions before 0.10, some effects had different 1-key actions:
    • The Knife effect originally had Madotsuki stab the air instead of switching which hand the knife was in. Despite this action sharing its animation with the effect's actual function, it does not affect NPCs as if they have been stabbed.
    • The Triangle Kerchief originally made Madotsuki progressively more transparent when the 1 key was pressed, and less transparent when the 3 key was pressed. Toriningen could also still see and trap Madotsuki if she became fully transparent with the effect.
    • In 0.04, the Umbrella and Blonde Hair effects lacked 1-key actions altogether, though they gained their respective actions in 0.06.
