In it you play as Madotsuki, a young woman who seems to live in a high rise, one room flat…somewhere.

Yume Nikki is an exploration based experience, created in RPGMaker 2003. This long preamble is basically me saying “I am so biased about this game it’s not even funny, so I may as well own up to it” the score is high but I want to convince you I’m not entirely crazy It did however turn me on to the RPGMaker scene, for that I am always grateful. It sounded like the beginning of a creepypasta. I found the stories and storytelling fascinating and it was in this period that Yume Nikki was released.Īround 2009/2010 I heard about this game, nobody really knew who made it beyond the username “Kikiyama”, it seemingly had no real plot or dialogue and was full of strange and surreal imagery. Slenderman, The Rake and The SCP Foundation all started in this period. The beginnings and -arguably- heyday of creepypastas. For me that period was my early-mid teens, 2008-2011 ish. For some it was the early 2000’s era, Linkin park lyrics in that little flavourtext area on your MSN or AIM chat window may bring back some memories, for others it was when Homestuck was in one of its “actually good” phases. An age where we were (even if peripherally) involved in “something”, some kind of fandom or niche in internet culture.

I suppose for many of us who grew up in the internet era, we find one period particularly nostalgic or familiar. 'It's captured a segment of the internet's imagination for 10 years, maybe I can help ramble about why?'
