There was a dungeon crawler called Oreshika that released on the PS1 in 1999. The main gimmick is that your family is cursed to die every two years, so you breed new children with Gods who carry on the task of removing the curse. These children take on aspects from their parents. There was a PSP remake in 2011, and a sequel on the Vita in 2014 - only this one was released in the west. It's decent.
Anyway, the coolest thing is the adverts. The original 1999 one is short, stoic, very Japanese - a man and his son are looking out over the sea, dressed in funeral suits, having just buried the grandfather. The father relays the grandfather's last words to his son - "go forth and live on".
For the 2011 and 2014 release, they tracked down the exact same actors, now older, to do the new adverts.
