Yume Nikki is an RPGMaker game that was created on June 26, 2004 by a developer known as KIKIYAMA. The game is centered around traversing the dream world of Madotsuki, the ultimate goal being to collect all 24 effects hidden within these dreams. It focuses more on exploration rather than battles and leveling up, the latter being seen in most traditional RPGMaker games around its time. Its bizarre yet mesmerizing visuals, storytelling, music, and such rendered it a unique experience! KIKIYAMA is also an incredibly reclusive developer; any questions that the player may have about the game or its meaning are left unanswered, leading to many theories and interpretations. It is because of these reasons that Yume Nikki gained a cult following on the Japanese textboard 2channel. When translations were introduced, this following expanded even beyond Japan. Despite how long ago the game was created, fan-made content is still being made to this day! Countless and countless of fangames have been created, many of which I love as well! It has even inspired other popular games such as Undertale and the LISA series. Yume Nikki truly is a work to remember!
