However, Nights rebels against Wizeman's plans, and is punished by being imprisoned inside an Ideya palace, a gazebo-like container for dreamers ' Ideya.

Nights is a Nightmaren created by Wizeman to steal Red Ideya ; however, Nights betrays Wizeman and is sealed in the Ideya Palace until Elliot or Claris Dualizes with them to get the Ideya back.

Unlike Nights, Reala is cruel, brutal, clever, and completely loyal to Wizeman.

Actually Reala is speaking in Japanese slang ; translated he says, " Let's go, Nights!

Wizeman is the creator of the Nightmaren: Nights, Reala, Jackle, Clawz, Gulpo, Gillwing and Puffy, as well as many minor maren seen in the levels.

Nights into Dreams ... is split into seven levels or " Dreams ", each divided further into four " Mares " and a boss battle.

It is possible to complete some of the levels ' goals by wandering around the landscape of Nightopia as Claris or Elliot ( pursued by an egg-shaped alarm clock which will wake up the child and end the level if it catches the player ), but the majority of the gameplay centers on Nights ' flying sequences, triggered by walking into the Ideya palace near the start of each level and merging with the imprisoned acrobat.

The gameplay as Nights is not completely 3D: players can only fly in the 2D plane of the screen, with their actual motion through the level determined by the automatic camera angle at that point in the Mare.

The Christmas Nights levels are included as an unlockable bonus, playable after the main game is completed.

Nights is an unlockable character in Sonic Riders, Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity and Sonic Shuffle.

A minigame version of Nights into Dreams ... is playable utilizing the Nintendo GameCube-to-Game Boy Advance connectivity with Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II and Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg.
