Congratulations, you’ve just beaten Nocturnal Illusion! ^_^ 4. Frequently Asked Questions Q: I’m lost and I can’t find anything else to do. A: One of the main flaws with this game is you have to wander around a lot. When you get stuck like that just keep going to every room and looking at everything until and event happens. Q: Why are some of the pictures blank/deleted? A: Two scenes are censored from the game. The Red Riding Hood, and the illusion girl scenes. The reason being is both the characters are or are assumed to be under age. Without the pictures, it’s hard to get by these points without randomly clicking on the screen. If you want to, there’s a patch around on the internet that restores all the cut scenes. Q: How many different endings are there? A: 11. 1) Choose Maya. 2) Choose Miwako. 3) Choose Misao. 4) Choose Yura. 5) Choose Sari and stay a man. 6) Choose Sari and turn into a demon. 7) Choose Yukina. 8) Choose Arisa and take her out. 9) Choose Arisa and leave her there. 10) Choose the mistress and leave the mansion. 11) Choose the mistress and stay in the mansion.
