In NieR Replicant, players have a seemingly endless array of side quests to complete across the game's varied regions. In the city of Facade, players will encounter several side quests that can be accepted from the city's inhabitants.

In the quest "The Tangled Message," players are tasked with assisting a guard with relaying several messages across the city. The guard explains to the players that because of Rule 56.908, citizens of Facade must interact with others on a regular basis in order to strengthen community solidarity. It is worth noting that before players are able to unlock side quests in Facade, they must first rescue the Prince from the Barren Temple and return him to the city.

To start the quest, Nier Replicant players must speak with the city guard located in the center of Facade. In order to quickly reach the guard's location, players can jump into any quicksand river in the city and they will be teleported to his location.

The first message that players will be tasked with delivering is "The Masked People respect their rules" to "the person guarding the left side of the exit."  In order to find the correct recipient, travel to Facade's entrance via the sand river and speak with the guard on the left with the speech bubble over his head.

The second message that players deliver is "The Men of the Mask work for the king" to "the king's right-hand man." Players can find this recipient by using the sand river to travel to the king's mansion. Once at the location, players must speak with the guard that is to the left of the door.

The third message that players must deliver is "Child Care can be difficult" to "the person taking care of the children." To find the correct recipient, players should first purchase the map of Facade, which is available from the vendor at the entrance to the city. When looking at the map, players must travel to the north of the city to locate the correct recipient.

After speaking with the lady looking after the children, the next message that must be delivered is "Only nobility may enter the Treasury" to "the southeastern guardian." Players can find the correct recipient on the lowest level of the city guarding a door in the southwest corner of the map. When looking at the map, players will find this NPC next to the grocer vendor icon where players can purchase watermelon.

The final message that players must deliver is "quicksand" to "the long-winded person." Players will find this NPC in the northwestern corner of the map, next to a small sand waterfall.

Once players have delivered the final message they can return to the guard in the center of the city. After speaking with the guard, players will receive 10,000 gold which will come in handy when purchasing the large amount of bait required for the game's numerous fishing quests.

NieR Replicant is now available for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
