Overview

Oversomnia is an English Yume Nikki fangame created by Wamby. It was made for Dream Diary Jam 2 in RPG Maker 2003.

Gameplay

Oversomnia is a traditional fangame. The player enters the dream world by sleeping in bed and saves by using either the closet or the phone in the room. The latter also allows the player to view stats (how many times the player has slept, the number of effects gotten and the number of events triggered) and change the menu theme.

Unlike many fangames, there is a NPC (seated behind a booth next to the Nexus doors) who will provide hints and temporary item abilities for a fee. It has a Bestiary too, which offers a little bit of information about the NPCs, available by reading the book next to the phone.

Plot

You play as a boy named Irving, and your goal is to explore his dreams while collecting effects. According to the creator, Irving is part of a "dream club" whose three members gather or otherwise use other means to share the dreams they have. Therefore, unlike many protagonists Irving is willing and able to leave his room as he pleases.
