NieR

Fable III

Fantasy setting

You lead a revolution against your tyrant brother, then sit on Albion's throne yourself and must weigh promises against a shrinking treasury. It pairs cheeky British humor and easygoing combat with an industrial-era fantasy kingdom that reacts to your morality.

Tactics Ogre: Reborn

Yakuza

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Lore and world history

A story-driven urban fantasy RPG from Wadjet Eye Games and writer Richard Cobbett that blends narrative with an undead life-simulation. Managing your time, learning skills and making decisions shape your path through a mysterious city.
