It tells the story of some of the characters and events that lead up to the game.

Imagine being able to just sit down and play #NieR scores on your piano! 🎹

A lack of talent and a misspent youth keep this dream far out of reach for me, but I love that these books get published ♥️

Maybe one day…

Mario is an absolute mushroom fiend in this book. 🍄

Every page is either him with a fistful of shrooms; or completely miserable without them...

@thevglibrary I'm finding myself in a Civilization mood and I would love to read "Civilization or Rome on 640K a Day" but unlike many of Prima's books I can't find a trace of it online, even physical copies are scarce on the usual second hand sites.

Do you have an idea where I could find it digitally or physically (preferably from within Europe)?
