Line 71:
* Referenced a few times in ''[[Warhammer 40,000]]'', especially where Chaos magic is prevalent and ''especially'' on some worlds in [[I Don't Like the Sound of That Place|the Eye of Terror]]. Out in the physical universe there is/was Nostramo, a world caught in eternal darkness. The people there evolved to [[Eye Scream|not have irises]], only pupils, and it was so demoralizing to the populace that the major source of population control wasn't disease, war or neglect, but [[Driven to Suicide|SUICIDE.]] That is until it was subject to [[Earthshattering Kaboom|Exterminatus]].
* According to the Warcraft RPG sourcebook (at least, the pre-[[WoW]] one), the lands of the night elves were said to be in a perpetual night.
* In the ''[[Planescape]]'' setting, the Beastlands is an Outer Plane with three layers; Karasuthra is always night, while Krigala is aways day and Brux is always dawn (or dusk, depending on who you ask)

** ''[[Mario Party]]'' with Horror Land, Boo's Haunted Bash and King Boo's Haunted Hideaway in 2, 4 and 8 respectively.
** The ghost house levels in both ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' feature this. Even if you only get to see that it's night for about five seconds in the outdoors parts at the very end of the levels.
** [[Meaningful Name| Twilight Town]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.
* Most [[Survival Horror]] type games:
** Likely every ''[[Resident Evil]]'' location in the series, at least in the first few games.
Line 154 ⟶ 155:
* The NES game ''[[Nightshade]]'' takes place in a hard-boiled setting where it's always night.
* Most missions in the ''[[Thief (series)|Thief]]'' series take place at night (obviously required to give Garrett darkness in which to work best). There are a few missions taking place in daylight, but they are fairly scarce.
* The Rogue Isles in
* Pharaoh Man's levels in ''[[Mega Man 4]]'' and ''[[Rockman 6: Unique Harassment]]'' take place at night. Despite this apparent disadvantage, Pharaoh Man still manages to give Mega Man a good fight.

* Played straight and averted in ''[[Marble Hornets]]''; in Entries #16 and #18, J goes the house during the night; {{spoiler|he gets attacked the second time for his trouble.}} In Entry #23, he goes to a different house during the day to avert this. {{spoiler|It doesn't quite work.}}
* ''[[RWBY]]'': The Grimmlands -- originally the domain of the God of Darkness until he and his brother ragequit Remnant after Salem instigated a revolt against them by humanity v1.0 -- is perpetually shrouded in darkness, and is vaguely lit by red and purple light from no particular source. The darkness isn't caused by heavy cloud cover, because the night sky and Remnant's moon are visible.
