Like in Yume Nikki, there are 24 effects. Each effect changes Sabitsuki's appearance, and some provide certain abilities. None of the effects are needed to progress through the game, so they can be collected in any order that you want (Not counting the "Empty Boxes", because you have to be Rust to access those areas, and the instructions that you already have.), but many optional events and locations are unreachable without them.
The effects are scattered throughout the world, some being easier to find than the others. Gathering all 24 effects is apparently the objective of the game. Some effects are found in certain locations, whereas others are received from interacting with certain characters.
Very few players achieve the goal of gathering all effects alone, so walkthroughs exist mainly to help find each one.
