Video Game Reviews of Koudelka
Customer Review: Unfortunate
Summary: 2 Stars
Koudelka was a game that I really wanted to love. I picked it up during my old game store raids as a kid, during the golden era of RPGs (1994-1999).
Koudelka sat shining on a shelf at my locally-owned video game store. As a unique blend of role playing elements set to a gothic timeline, I was immediately hooked. When I got home and popped the disc in, I was so ready to dive into this unique world.
Unfortunately, I never truly had the chance. The graphics were only decent for the time, with even lesser-known titles showing much more polish. The music was very disappointing, especially given Hiroki Kikuta's wonderful tunes in the Mana series. What really ruined the experience for me was the battle system. It was jagged, slow, and quite bland - the polar opposite of Sacnoth Games' intentions.
As a person who bought and beat almost all of the role-playing games of the PSX era, this one stands out as a true let-down. Out of my 21 RPGs for the original Playstation, this is the only one I did not beat. It stands among my otherwise proud collection, a sad sign of good intentions scarred by poor execution.
Description of Koudelka
On Halloween, 1898, a troubled yet determined medium named Koudelka is driven by the spirit of an unknown woman to the ominous Nemeton monastery. Once a place of worship, it evolved into a prison where the sentenced died horrible deaths. There, along with Edward, the adventurer, and James, the bishop, she will discover horror, danger, and adventure in the ruined and haunted abbey. Either they will solve their mysterious quests, or they will die trying.All Games
