Overview
Dreams of Dead: Scary Wonderland or DoD is a Russian Yume Nikki fangame. The current version of the game is actually a Demo Version, which had been discontinued for many reasons. Currently a remake of this game is in progress. DoD is an exploration adventure horror game with a few puzzles. It features some scary and dark themes, so the creators have rated this game as appropriate for age "14 years or older".
Gameplay
The "exposition" part at the beginning at the game is linear, it is necessary to progress through the game to the main part, where you can dream and wake up. After this part, you wake up in a hospital room. You can save by using your roommate's diary and you can sleep in the vacant bed to go to the "Dream World". The "Nexus" here is a bit unusual, but you do start off in a nexus, because it does have 4 different available doorways which lead you to separate dream locations.
Plot
The first part is linear; mostly like the story part, the object of this game is exploration. You are playing as a girl named Aya (Айа) (Not to be confused with Aya from Hallucigenia), who is in a hospital for some reason. This game has "borrowed" some sound effects and graphics from Yume Nikki. A good example of this is a Toriningen standing at a desk found in the beginning of one of the dreamworld Nevertheless, it also has plenty of original artwork and sounds.
