Yume Nikki is a 32-Bit freeware game created by Kikiyama, a Japanese solo game designer. The game was made using RPGMaker 2003. The game is regarded as one of the most original applications of RPGMaker 2003, and the start of a possible new genre of games. "Yume Nikki" means "Dream Diary" in Japanese, and the game follows a young girl named Madotsuki as she dreams. The goal is to seek out and acquire all 24 'Effects'. The game otherwise has no plot, and nearly the entire game is left up to speculation.

This is your first day working at C.C. & C., Inc, the Best Office Ever. In between completing the weird tasks you're given, you must safely navigate the office hallways. You're not sure what makes the hallways so spooky. Maybe it's the weird noises made by the old building. Or the invisible monsters who chomp your head off if you linger for more than 20 seconds... With only your trusty revolver on your side, you must find a way out of this hellish place.
Sincere Deceit is a fangame based on the indie title OFF by Mortis Ghost. You play as The Batter once more, dropped into a world slowly falling apart from a mysterious force corrupting it. It is your job to decide whether to fight against this force, or let it consume the world around you. Follow either of the two voices guiding you, or choose to cut your own path to find out the truth of what happened. Sincere Deceit is a horror game at heart, and thus deals with many heavy topics, such as violence/cruelty, gore/body horror, suicide, cult indoctrination, jumpscares (both visual and audio based) and some flashing on the screen. This is not a game for the faint of heart.

A visceral body horror Yume Nikki fan game that ceased development in 2018. Fleshchild is a semi-episodic exploration/adventure game, similar to and inspired by Yume Nikki. You follow a baby eldritch abomination-type entity named Vis as it "grows up" at the behest of its parent, a giant red eyeball who lives in a sewer. The game has two main segments: Reality, and Dreaming. Reality: Vis explores sections of Ashvale city to find whatever body parts its parent requests for the night. Gameplay in reality involves exploration, item collection, solving simple puzzles, and maybe killing people for body parts. Vis can get advice from its fellows in the sewer, alongside Visybil, who can provide more information on the objective and plot. Dreaming: Vis explores their dreams as they sleep during the day. Gameplay in dreams involves exploration and item collection, and later on will include puzzles. The dreams end abruptly and without warning, so thoroughly exploring one THEMED location (such as the entirety of a hospital) before moving to the next will reward Vis with the best experience each dream has to offer.
Somnium is a Yume Nikki fangame. Unlike most fangame, in Somnium you can't choose the daydream you explore. The game has no effects, but instead you obtain memories.
