Yume Nikki is the PERFECT example of video games as an ART FORM.
This game changed my life, seriously. Once you plant the seed in your head, that this world is the dreams of the player character, the game becomes a solemn hike through the harrowing, enigmatic, and traumatizing memories of Madotsuki. You'll be immersed for hours, exploring, basking in emotions, trying to figure out what it all means.
And the game never tells you.
This game has me exploring thoughts I'd never considered before. It tapped into my fears of what could happen in my own life... but I feel like I've come of of this experience stronger.
One of the greatest art pieces of our time.
