Text Dream

On certain days the game will not place you in the dream world. Depending on your actions and seen events in previous dreams the game will choose to play either video or a text dream, containing a black screen and rows of white kanji. Text dreams automatically end after ten seconds and will always result in a center position (0; 0) on the graph.

Some of the text dreams appear to be shortened versions of entries from the dream journal, while others are not. Several in-game location may contain references to certain text dreams.

Below is a gallery of all existing 48 text dreams. Many of these translations are not yet confirmed.
