[[wp:Immersive_virtual_reality|Immersive virtual reality]] — This is an opportunity to put an unusual twist or meta-commentary on top of the normal gameplay. Also, VR levels can be used for training. A truly immersive VR headset will probably engage the muscle atonia that is used in REM sleep to avoid dreamers physically acting out the movements they are making in their dreams. This means that if someone forcibly places a person in a VR space, without providing a soft exit within the space, they will be trapped. Perhaps at some point Konoko must escape a VR space by figuring out how to crash the level so that the headset shuts down and frees her from the physical restraint.
