Black to move
18...Kh8!?
Here we go again!
19.Rc2 Rg8 20.Rcd2 g5 21.Bd4 Rg6 22.Nc1 Rcg8 23.Nd3 Qf8 24.Re1
This was a good opportunity to block the g-file with 24.g4.
24...g4 25.fxg4 e5 26.Be3 Nxg4 27.Nd5 Bd8
Now Black is clearly better and his pieces cooperate wonderfully well.
28.Nf2 Bh4 29.Ree2 Nxe3 30.Nxe3 Bxf2 31.Qxf2 Bxe4
Game over. Black won after some mutual inaccuracies, presumably in time trouble.
The basic ingredients of the Nievergelt Manoeuvres are already familiar, for instance from Stonewall-like structures.
In that case, however, ...g7-g5 immediately hits the doubled pawn on f4 and threatens to open the g-file. With the true Nievergelt Manoeuvre, you may hope to just create a half-open file in the long run. To refresh your memory - repetition is an important pillar of learning.

Black to move
15...Kh8!
You won't have any problems at least considering the possibility of this move any more, I hope.
16.Ne2 Rg8 17.Ng3 g5
You see the difference. There's immediate concrete tension: Black threatens to take on f4.
18.Qf3
White allows the f-flle to be opened without undoubting his f-pawns.
18...g4 19.hxg4 Nxg4 20.Rc1 Qf8 21.Bh3 Nf6 22.Kh2 Rb8 23.e4
If White got in e4-e5 and f4-f5 he'd be in great shape. Now, however, it's Black who has the chance to sacrifice the exchange.
