* ''VideoGame/TenEightySnowboarding'': Usually, a stage's time will change depending on the difficulty level.

** In the ''TabletopGame/{{Eberron}}'' setting, the main layer of [[LandOfFaerie Thelanis]], the plane of the fae, is known as the Moonlit Vale because it's always night there, with the light provided by the moon Rhaan, which is always full.

Added DiffLines:

* Almost all the action in the ''VideoGame/TexMurphy'' games takes place at night, in true FilmNoir fashion. It is revealed in the third game that this is because of [[AfterTheEnd the post-apocalyptic nature of the setting]]; following the events of WorldWarIII, the ozone layer is basically shot and it's become downright ''dangerous'' to be out for long in the day, so the day-night cycle has been inverted (i.e., everyone sleeps during the day and conduct business at night).
