Navigational map

Features

The Cog Maze is a teleport maze consisting of floating gears of various sizes, serving as platforms. Rotating Phillips-head screws on each platform act as portals between other gears.

A slightly shorter screw on a platform to the northwest leads to the Construction Frame Building.

Another screw leads to a slightly darker area, with a bent screw, which upon interaction show a small cutscene to inform the player that the shortcut from Urotsuki's Dream Apartments to the Forest Pier was now open.

Another shorter screw exists deeper inside the platform maze but currently teleports you to itself - effectively a dead end. A platform in the west constructed of three cogs with one screw in the middle contains a walking mannequin, which will take you to Nail World.

Directions

The Nexus → Red Streetlight World → Gray Road → Sprout World → Green Neon World → Construction Frame Building → Cog Maze

Trivia

The "Daydream" image found in Cosmic World was once located here in the dark area. It replaced the original one while the building area wasn't present.
The Menu theme #9 previously found in this area by interacting with the Bent Screw used to replace the one in the Forest Pier, as an egg, when the area was no longer available.
