General Yume Nikki wikipedia article. Please avoid following the “additional links” listed because I feel that two of the sites in particular (Madotsuki’s Closet and Yume Nikki Wikia) misrepresent the game by presenting much of the game’s extensive fanon as canon.

A blog article about Yume Nikki that I feel decently represents my own thoughts on the game.

First Person (entry type):
H E L L O.
there has never been a computer in the dream before. i know, because i’ve been keeping a dream journal for a while now.
it’s like that, though. sometimes i go to the spaceship and sometimes i don’t. And sometimes it crashes and sometimes it doesn’t.
so now there is a computer, with a website. this website. maybe if i write something here, there will be a response. from my subconscious, i mean. because that’s where i am. and that’s where all of you are, too. to me, anyway. and then i’ll wake myself up and see if the computer is still here when i fall back asleep.

maybe you have a name. or not. or maybe you will next time.
Third Person: 150+ words
Madotsuki walked across the field, shivering as her boots squeaked over the snow.
(She was dreaming under the warm covers of her bed. She wasn’t cold at all, not really. It was always interesting, the way her brain allowed the little details to make sense even if the entirety – a field of snow, a bed sitting unmade in the middle of it, the little snow-creature wandering across Madotsuki’s path without noticing her – did not.)
It was slow going; she decided to get on her bicycle and save herself some time. The snow whipped across her face as she pedaled along, braids streaming out behind her head.
(The bike came from nowhere – she just decided and there it was, ready for her to ride.)
She rang the bell just to hear the echo. What a solitary place this was, compared to some of the other dreams where neon creatures crowded her out of rooms or shadow men bumped into her on the streets of an endless city of gray.
She saw a door in the middle of the snow and realized that she had wandered across the field for so long that she ended up at the beginning. That tended to happen if she wasn’t paying attention to where she was headed. Without a direction in mind she would inevitably have to start the entire trip over – or maybe the door was the destination this time? She couldn’t remember.
She opened the door, rode through, and let it close behind her.
(There was always a chance of finding something new on the other side.)
