Overview
A complete guide describing which items and how you need to interact with them to progress during Somnium sections and the locations of all hidden items.

The hidden item is in the sink. Not sure about when it appears, but I collected it just before I picked up the gun.

This path unlocks Mizuki cured route (meikAI).

The hidden item is lying on one of the benches. Just pass the control booth and you should see it a little bith further ahead.
Day 3: Sunday – PSYNCIN’ IN THE VaiN
This path will unlock the rihAI route.

TIP: Whenever you get a negative TIMIE, spend some time looking around the Somnium for objects which have low time cost interactions and use them there. A choice between 2×10 seconds or 2×30 seconds can make a huge difference in some cases.
If you spent too much time looking around, simply memorise the object and restart the Somnium or the easier way would be to save your game just before you start exploring, then simply load that same save file.
In PSYNCIN’ IN THE VaiN a good example would be the Door right behind your starting position. Interaction Open costs only 5 seconds.
This hidden item took the most time to find, but is actually one of the easiest. Instead on interacting with the TV, go past it towards the left corner. It appears once you are close enough.
Day 3: Sunday – PSYNCIN’ IN THE VILLaiN
- Forklift – Drive
- Portal A – Put Your Hand In
- Warehouse Door F – Go In
- Control Panel A – Input Fighting Game Combo
- Warehouse Door B – Enter
- Warehouse Door D – Open
- Warehouse Door D – Enter
- Control Panel B – Raise Lever
This hidden item appears after you have cleared a path for Iris with the crane. Once you Enter Warehouse Door B you should see a crane to your right. Walk past is towards the cleat (I believe that’s how that metal thing for tying boats is called.), the hidden item is on one of them.
Day 4: Monday – PSYNCIN’ IN THE CURTaiN
From my understanding there is no one definite way to finish this Somnium. I did three runs and focused on different objects and still managed to clear it. That said the choices you have to make during the interruptions matter, otherwise you waste valuable time.
- Winter Iris – Pick
- Phone starts ringing – Ignore
- Picture – Fill Out
- Ceiling Fan – Blow On
- Phone starts ringing again – Ignore
- Pot – Wear (This interaction is not necessary to progress, but is part of an achievement.)
- Liquid – Stick Hand In
- Book (Under the Ceiling Fan) – Tear
- Book (On the low table) – Tear
- Giant eye appears in the window – Close Curtain
- Skull – Throw
- Book (On the stereo system) – Tear
- Book (On the cupboard) – Tear
- Book (A little bit further on one of the shelves) – Tear
- Someone starts banging on the door – Lock
The hidden items appears once you’ve dealt with the giant eye. Once you regain control of Aiba look to the left behind the green barrier, it should be on one of the shelves.
Day 4: Monday – PSYNCIN’ IN THE SWaiN
This path unlocks Mizuki’s route (syougAI).
- Icy Floor – Lie Down
- Oil Drum – Roll

- Ota – Encourage
This path uncloks Ota’s route (jikAI).
- Icy Floor – Lie Down
- Plate (Closest on the right side) – Breathe On
- Forklift – Sortie
- Ota – Motivate
The hidden item is behind the green shelves. You’ll need to approach the right side forklift, turn right towards the wall and there you should see a small enclosed space between the wall amd the green shelves. Follow along it until you hit a dead end. The hidden item should be right there.

- Gate 3 – Investigate (You’ll get a 1/3 TIMIE, use it on any following interactions that need 60 seconds. If there’s a x3 TIMIE instead of the 1/3 one you can alternatively interact with Monitor F and select Listen To Iris, I got a 1/4 TIMIE this way.)
- Gate 3 – Dig

The hidden item appears after you have completely restored the diner, in other words after the correct interaction with the Envelope. It is under the right side table closest to the Odoroki-Man Sticker.
Day 5: Tuesday – PSYNCIN’ IN THE MOUNTaiN
TIP: Since this whole Somnium is very dark and you can’t see very well you might find the Map funtion useful here.
- Flower Bud – Worship
- Rock 2 – Worship (Not necessary to progress, but you’ll need a TIMIE for the very last interacton, otherwise you’ll run out of time and won’t get Day 5: Hitomi A entry in your album. I was lucky and got 1/4 TIMIE on my first try, but you might need to try other interactions to get at least 1/3 TIMIE before continuing.)

This hidden item is fairly easy to find. Once you reach Hole In Tree 1 to the left of it you will see Rock 2, move past it and continue in the same direction. At this point there should be some familiar shimmering in the distance and once you get to it there will be a regular rock and a hidden item peeking from behind it.
