Yume Nikki:Dense Woods

Madotsuki in Dense Woods A

The Dense Woods is a moderately large deeper location with many connections to other areas, although which exits are available depends on where you entered from, as the thickly growing trees and foliage restrict access to most locations of the map.

It is a vast forest with many narrow passageways through the trees. Cutting through the woods is a mysterious road, and deep within the dense woods is a spooky lake that can only be reached by train. The darkness of the area suggests it is explored during the night time.

There are many effects to be gained here, including the frog, the stoplight and the witch effects.

Points of interest

Dense Woods A

• There is a vending machine here.
• Rain falls in this area. It persists even when you leave the area, just like the rain summoned by the Umbrella. To stop it, activate and deactivate the umbrella effect.
• To get to the Infinite road, travel along the road until you see the Jellyfish. After interacting with it, travel to the East. Once you leave this way, you will not be able to backtrack to Dense Woods A.

The Infinite Road

• The road loops endlessly to the east. To escape, travel past the five purple-red creatures at least once, then travel west. You will know if you were successful by the appearance of a blue, sixth creature standing alone. Travelling past them two full times opens the manhole to the White Desert, and travelling past them five full times changes the appearance of the character that appears under the manhole.

Dense Woods B

Madotsuki in Dense Woods B (Frog Path)

(The Road)

• The Stoplight effect is found here. The road to the west is blocked off by traffic cones. Interact with the nearby dead body ('Shitai') to gain the stoplight effect.
• Off the road is a passage to a manhole (That terminally leads to the place where The Thing with the Quivering Jaw is. Whether this is open or not depends on how long you travelled on the Infinite Road.

(The Frog Path)

• The frog here is one of the two frogs that can give you the Frog effect.
• Interact with the Jellyfish to be transported to the Teleport Maze.

The Dark Woods

• The area is quite dark. Lighting it with the Lamp effect makes it easier to navigate.

The eyes in the trees follow Madotsuki as she walks along. This is based on the common cartoon representation of scary woods with eyes watching from the darkness.

The Train

See: The Train

The Witch's Island

• The Witch effect can be obtained here by interacting with the leafless tree with red eyes.
• There is a chance of a certain NPC spawning in the small pool on this island.
