I Just Got This Game And I Am Confused

[Penelope 0105]

Aside from the infamous Uboa easter egg, I never knew much about this game, but I got interested after finding out the game is free. I found myself roaming through endless worlds with almost nothing happening, and I got bored and confused as hell. I think I have to collect 24 effects or something, but there isn't any arrow or map telling me where to go. I generally am not good at games like this.

I think there is two things needed to say:
1) The meaning of this game is how beautiful it is, it's not about finding your way and move on, it's about exploring and learning the main character and her inner world
2) If you are not entertained... drop this game, it's not your kind of game!

If the game has to be given a genre, I would call it an exploration game. Because this is what this game is mostly about: exploration.
You roam around Madotsuki's dreams and learn about her as you do so. Eventually you get your own take on what Madotsuki's story is based on your own interpretation of her dreams and get a theory out of it.

No, you are not confused, the game is that, there nothing interesting in this game, it's just random paint arts with unentertaining mazes

As everyone has been saying, it doesn't really have that much of a purpose- it's more like abstract art. However, if you do want a reason to complete it, there are 24 effects you can collect by exploring all the worlds. And if you get them all, a special secret ending will occur! It takes time and lots of exploration though, so it's really up to you.

If you're looking for direction, play another game.
However if getting lost feels nice, play yume nikki. Pick a door and just go.
For a more streamlined experience though, look up how to get the Bike and the Medamaude/Eye-Palm effect. The bike makes you move faster and the Eye-palm moves you back to the nexus (where all the doors are)

Not gonna lie, this was me. I was walking around for 30 mins and have no idea what to do lol. I thought there would be a linear story of some sort, but I guess this game is more like of an exploration type.
