[[File:Kimg011.jpg|thumb|240px|The effects as they appear in the [[Yume Nikki:Official Manga|manga]].]] | |||
''' | 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. | ||
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. | |||
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]]. | |||
''' | 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). | ||

===Chair=== | |||
[[File:Madotsuki chair faceset.png|right]] | |||
The chair in [[Yume Nikki:Madotsuki's Room#Dream Representation|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: | |||
*[[Yume Nikki:FC Worlds|FC Worlds]]. [[Yume Nikki:Pirori|Pirori]] in the [[Yume Nikki:Barracks Settlement|Barracks Settlement]] will not teleport you, and the [[Yume Nikki:Static Maze|Static Maze]] and [[Yume Nikki:Static Tunnel|Static Tunnel]] warps both do not function. Due to this, the main area of [[Yume Nikki:White Desert B|White Desert B]] is also inaccessible. | |||
*[[Yume Nikki:Sky Garden|Sky Garden]], as she can not go up the Stairway to the Sky. | |||
*[[Yume Nikki:Windmill World|Windmill World]] and the [[Yume Nikki:Docks A|Docks A]], as the slope into [[Yume Nikki:Big Red|Big Red]] is not traversable. | |||
*[[Yume Nikki:Staircase of Hands|Staircase of Hands]], as she can not sleep in any of the dream world's beds. Thus, she is also unable to reach [[Yume Nikki:Underground World|Underground World]], the [[Yume Nikki:Spaceship|Spaceship]], and [[Yume Nikki:Mars|Mars]]. | |||
*[[Yume Nikki:Witch's Island|Witch's Island]], as she can not sit on the [[Yume Nikki:Traincar|Traincar]] seat to travel there. | |||
*[[Yume Nikki:Number World#Stairway|Number World's stairway]], as she can not go up the stairs there. The path can still be entered by using the Knife effect on the [[Yume Nikki:Zippertile|Zippertile]] prior to getting to it with the chair. | |||
**[[Yume Nikki:Mini Hell|Mini Hell]] can also still be entered with the chair despite requiring the Knife effect if the Toriningen is stabbed prior to using the chair. However, this may be difficult, as the now-hostile Toriningen may be tricky to outrun with the chair's slow speed. | |||
*The [[Yume Nikki:White Desert A|White Desert A]] areas containing [[Yume Nikki:Monoe|Monoe]], the [[Yume Nikki:Eye People|Eye People]], or the [[Yume Nikki:Severed Heads|Severed Heads]], as using the Knife effect is required to get to all of them. | |||
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. 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=== | |||
[[File:Looking_Left.png|right]] | |||
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. | |||
[[File:Look_left_sit.png|right]] | |||
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. | |||

**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. | |||

*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.

**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. | |||

*In versions before 0.10, some effects had different 1-key actions: | |||

Latest revision as of 12:43, 24 November 2024
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).

Practical Uses:
- Attract NPCs - Can be used to move NPCs that block your way or find NPCs hidden in the area.
- Provoking a reaction from certain NPCs and the environment.
- Summons UFOs at the top of Mars.
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.
Chair
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:
- FC Worlds. Pirori in the Barracks Settlement will not teleport you, and the Static Maze and Static Tunnel warps both do not function. Due to this, the main area of White Desert B is also inaccessible.
- Sky Garden, as she can not go up the Stairway to the Sky.
- Windmill World and the Docks A, as the slope into Big Red is not traversable.
- Staircase of Hands, as she can not sleep in any of the dream world's beds. Thus, she is also unable to reach Underground World, the Spaceship, and Mars.
- Witch's Island, as she can not sit on the Traincar seat to travel there.
- Number World's stairway, as she can not go up the stairs there. The path can still be entered by using the Knife effect on the Zippertile prior to getting to it with the chair.
- Mini Hell can also still be entered with the chair despite requiring the Knife effect if the Toriningen is stabbed prior to using the chair. However, this may be difficult, as the now-hostile Toriningen may be tricky to outrun with the chair's slow speed.
- The White Desert A areas containing Monoe, the Eye People, or the Severed Heads, as using the Knife effect is required to get to all of them.
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
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.
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.
