Nier

NieR for the PlayStation 3 is a 2010 action role-playing game developed by Cavia. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, the game follows a father’s journey to find a cure for his daughter, who is afflicted with a mysterious disease. While its technical aspects, like graphics, were often criticized at the time of its release, the game has since gained a cult following for its deep and emotional story, unique world-building, and particularly its acclaimed soundtrack. The gameplay blends elements of hack-and-slash combat, RPG progression, and different perspectives, often shifting to top-down or side-scrolling views. The PS3 version of the game, known as NieR Gestalt in Japan, features an older protagonist who is the father of the sick girl, while the Japanese-exclusive NieR Replicant featured a younger, brother protagonist.
