Parasitorium

N.E.R.D. is a sci-fi sandbox game set in a secret biological research complex where scientists have created parasites that grant their hosts the ability to shapeshift into any appearance and gain superhuman physical and mental abilities. The player oversees a series of controlled survival experiments involving adult female volunteers who have been infected with these parasites. Drawing inspiration from games like 60 Seconds! and 60 Parsecs!, the game combines resource management and narrative progression as you observe how the infected volunteers behave and develop under extreme conditions. The gameplay features numerous dialogue branches, character interactions, and quest-based challenges across multiple locations including a mining complex, with a large cast of customizable characters and branching storylines.
