Overview[]

Amihailu in Dreamland is a Yume Nikki based game produced by Noyemi K. The game stars Amihailu, a 19 year old graduate of the Military Academy in New Soleknaya. The player must use key items to solve puzzles and progress the game so they can explore new areas with the friends they meet in the dreamland. Triggering certain events will cause Amihailu's head to feel clearer, and also open up new areas for exploration.

Gameplay[]

Amihailu in Dreamland is a Yume Nikki fangame, where you explore an odd world in a fashion free from danger for the most part. There are a few areas where this game is different, however:

There is dialogue and text in the game (otherwise solving the puzzles would be impossible)
The focus is more on puzzles and storyline than effects and wandering. Though players can get lost in the game like any other FG, thanks to Amihailu's inherent unreliability.
The player cannot exit and enter the dreamworld freely
Some events may have different outcomes depending on whether your partner is in the party, or if you triggered another event previously. Additionally, your choices in certain main sequence events may affect item placement and how events play out" - taken from Amihailu in Dreamland's readme.

The game focuses heavily on observing key elements in dialogue and your surroundings, and exploration, rather then just wandering around.

There is also the option for one of your friends to join your party. In the 1.00 and 1.05 updates, the game included some new content that makes strong references to Nightmare Castle, including the new meadow world and tech lab areas and an effect for Amihailu.

Plot[]

The game opens with the main character, Amihailu returning home and finding herself all alone, after a brief search for her friend Mikhail, she instead decides to get some sleep, awakening to find herself in an area she does not recognize, her mind is foggy and she is unable to remember what she was doing before she arrived, so Amihailu begins her search, trying to find out where she is and how she ended up there, as you explore, more areas open up and characters become easier to understand as she regains her clarity.
