The free-to-play adventure game Yume Nikki is now available to play for free on Steam. Kadokawa Games also launched a new countdown site for a Yume Nikki project that will be revealed on January 25.

An RPG Maker tour de force, and a divisively controversial work for fans.

You are free to explore the various dream worlds at your own pace.

If you check certain characters or items in the game you will collect an “Effect.” These “Effects” can be used to change the main character’s appearance.

Some of these “Effects” have special actions or animations which you can activate by pressing 1 or 3 on the number pad.

Yume Nikki is a very unique title that has become one of the most well-known indie games to come out of Japan.

It is unlike any other RPG especially in the fact that there really is no action or dialogue to speak of. This gives the game a very dark and foreboding atmosphere. Can you make it to the secret ending?
