'''''.flow''''' is a [[Freeware Games|freeware]] ''[[Yume Nikki]]'' [[Spiritual Successor|fangame]] created in the RPG Maker 2003 engine by a Japanese developer going under the alias "lol". Like ''Yume Nikki'', exploration, surrealism, and atmosphere are the basis of the game, but unlike ''Yume Nikki'', this one has a LOT of disturbing content and horror elements added in. It is an incomplete game, with "lol" being known only by a twitter and a [[Pixiv]] account. As of 0.1, the game now has an end game that leads up to an ending that increases in length as one continues to explore.

''.flow'' stars a young girl known only as [[Meaningful Name|Sabitsuki]], who uses her computer (in one way or another, whether it be the internet or artificially-induced dreaming) to explore a surreal world while collecting special abilities known as 'effects'. These 'effects' change Sabitsuki's appearance, varying from witch clothes to a corpse. Notably, some such as the whistle and the pipe shall affect NPC's, although most [[Goggles Do Nothing|do nothing]].
 
Various versions, both English and Japanese, can be found [http://dotflow.wikidot.com/downloads here]. Version 0.15 can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20120327142254/http://loda.jp/lol_rust/ here]. The author also has a [http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=269411 pixiv account,] a [http://lolrust.deviantart.com/ deviantART account] and a [http://twitter.com/lol_rust twitter page].
 
Notably, much like [[Yume Nikki|the original]] there are no provided explanations to what is seen or discovered in the game. Fans [[Epileptic Trees|are left to speculate]], with no names given to anything other than the protagonist.
 
[[I Thought It Meant|Not to be confused]] with the 2006 freeware life simulation game ''[[wikipedia:Flow chr(28)video gamechr(29game)|FlowflOw]]''.
