| - Yet it is possible that if A is linked with Allan, then A is in fact a boy, though Allen does not exist in the newest update of NostAlgic. A is a presumed hikikomori who consequently refuses to leave his/her room. A's gender is debated, though there is an effect that gives him/her a feminine side-ponytail with a green ribbon. A's item screen includes the word "boku", the informal japanese way for a male to refer to himself. A's bedroom is a small, cozy space with blue walls and a picture of a house on a hill. There is a blue bed towards the bottom of the room, which can be interacted with to access the dream world, and a single desk with a notebook on it, where the player can save. Next to the desk is a light switch that can be turned on and off. The door to the right, presumably leading to the rest of the house, cannot be accessed, but the door to the top leads out to a wide balcony looking out on a sunny day -- a contrast to the gloomier balconies in both Yume Nikki and some of its better-known sequels, such as .flow.
