Yume 2kki Sorted By Yume Nikki Worlds
Last edited: April 3rd, 2024
Catalog of 2kki worlds based on what worlds from Yume Nikki they resemble or reference. Mostly just for fun. Loosely based off of the Yume 2kki:Yume Nikki page. Thanks to Oh0kaYthen86 and WikiOdd for the suggestions.
Galleries are sorted alphabetically with YN worlds first, then 2kki worlds second. Worlds currently without an image of their resemblance will have a placeholder instead.

- Notably, Closet Pinwheel Path is directly themed around closets like the one Closet Madotsuki is found in.

- Marshmallow Shallows has a hidden room with a Floyag-like creature.
- The path from Surgical Scissors World to Neon Caves may be a possible reference to the Infinite Road, being a paved road with several of the titular scissors looming over the path in a similar manner to the Floyags.

| Dense Woods A | Surgical Scissors World |
|---|---|

Sea of Trees
Docks
- Yume 2kki's own Docks, Rice Field, and Streetlight Docks resemble Yume Nikki's Docks. Like the original, these areas all have anglular, maze-like pathways over water as their main theme and design.
- Forest Pier contains a Docks-like section with these elements as well.
- Streetlight Docks has a fishing NPC similar to the Docks' Fisherman.
- Nightfall Park has a small subsection resembling the Docks, which also contains a Strober-esque NPC. (see below section)

If she "catches" her, she'll put the hat on her head and run away, rather than trap her in a dead end. Her inclusion in this area puts her in a similar role to the Toriningen chaser that can be found in Face Carpet Plaza.
