.Flow is one of the most well-known fangames of the original Yume Nikki, made by lol. It's one of the darker spin-offs infamous for its eerie atmosphere and copious amounts of body horror and hospital imagery, centering around a girl named Sabitsuki (さびつき) as she enters her PC dreamworld to explore her mind and collect effects. .Flow is one of the more traditional fangames that stays true to the gameplay elements of the original. Effects are collected in a gloomy, sublime dreamscape and the user is left to interpret the events and lack of explicit storyline. The only differences that seem to set this game apart from Yume Nikki is the more concrete subject matter (the deeper aspects of the landscape seem to have a more pristine resemblance to human body parts, where as Nikki's environment requires more interpretive thinking to analyze) and the inclusion of three endings instead of one. The main plot of the game is similar to the original Yume Nikki's, in that it's a sandbox game with very few exploration restrictions. You must collect the twenty-five effects to unlock two of the three endings and three boxes to achieve the third.

Overpower is a Brazilian game developed on RPG Maker 2000, originally released in 2002 and developed by E.F.N. Most of its assets come from the Runtime Package (RTP), and its sense of humour is typical of the early 2000s Brazilian internet. Despite that, the game had high narrative and gameplay ambitions. You start the game by choosing one out of four characters. Each character has its own narrative line, and their stories eventually cross each other. The game also has an alignment system that, although simple, can have surprising consequences. For example, depending on the circumstances of your death, instead of a game over your party can be sent to either heaven or hell, where there's an opportunity to be brought back to life, for a price. The game also features an extensive magic system, with 11 different Schools of Magic. According to the "LEIA-ME!!!" file, Overpower: A Saga de Bulgar was supposed to be the first of at least three chapters. The other two were tentatively titled "A Saga de Dark Elf" and "A Vingança do Rei Dragão". There were also plans to let players transfer their save files between chapters. Despite its ambitions, Overpower has yet to receive a sequel.
