Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice is the third video game in the Disgaea series by Nippon Ichi. The game takes place in a Netherworld school called the Evil Academy. In this demon school a good student is one who engages in evil activities such as truancy never showing up to class and getting in fights with others. Disgaea 3 is a tactical RPG; most of the game involves battles on isometric maps upon which the player controls a group of characters. Maps often feature "geo blocks" with statistical effects on the battlefield that unlike in previous games can be stacked or stood upon. Many objects in the environment including these blocks and characters themselves can be lifted thrown or destroyed.
