Dolls Nest

PC Female protagonist Corelike Doll Mecha Mechamusume
While the gameplay is modest in difficulty and the weapon balance is jank, this is probably my favorite example of Niheian world design in gaming, hands down. The world feels ineffable and overwhelmingly massive. Sometimes enemy placement is sparse. Sometimes rooms are huge for no reason. That very liminality is precious in this genre.
