Mata, Itsuka.

About

Mata, Itsuka. is a Yume Nikki-inspired fangame where you wander two surreal dream realms. You move around Katsuki’s and Shun’s abstract spaces collecting effects that alter the environment or your perception. The gameplay loops on exploration and experimentation with these effects, which range from changing gravity to distorting visuals. No dialogue or story guides you, just shifting puzzles and shifting landscapes. The game leans into the same eerie, disjointed charm as its predecessor, though it’s shorter and less polished. It runs on PC and has a small but dedicated following. Released in 2014, it remains a niche entry in the dream-game subgenre. Players who enjoy wandering cryptic, shifting worlds may find it worthwhile.
