On january 1 1996 The U.S. console gaming world was quietly taken by storm with the release of King's Field a pc quality 1st person (Real Time) RPG. The critics raved but Rpgs really hadnt caught on very strongly in the U.S. at that point. The franchise still stands alone as one of the most moody & fear provoking in rpg history. In KF you are stranded after a shipwreck with only a dagger & a herb to start with. Where am I? Whats that moving in the distance? These are likely the 1st 2 things you will wonder as the game begins, but much is to be discovered. Roam around 1st person in a full 3D enviroment finding items to help with your quest. Items include magic filled crystals, weapons, armors, money & more. Speak to other characters trapped on the island to expose an interesting & deep story line.(the tale of the gods Gura & Seath) Fight monsters consisting of a wide variety of killer plants, skeletons, knights, spiritual beings, demons & evil soldiers in real time by hacking, slashing & casting devastating spells. The (now old) graphics have a muted artistic look at times & a stunningly detailed look at points as well.(the demon lords look very detailed for the time). Make your way through the vast amount of areas, some are themed like the ice cavern, the arena, grave yards & the fire cave. The pace of the game & musical themes being mostly classical based help in setting the "tone" of the game. This is a very well developed game with practly no load times, none after you start playing. With that as part & the music in the background, the game tends to flow in almost a constant pushing forward into new areas. Save spots are common & you will want to save fairly often. This game is fairly unique & may take more than a couple of minutes to get used to the playing mechanics but is well worth the time.(play at least an hour to really give it a chance) If you utilize the items you find the game isnt very hard, but will likely seem hard when you 1st start. Remember its an RPG & your only level 1 & will likely die a couple of times before you get to the 1st save(even though its pretty close to the starting point of the game) You fight & raise character levels like any standard rpg. The game has the nice feature of molding your character to your playing style. For Example if you melee fight alot your character gets extra strong & if you use magic you get better with the element class of spells cast on top of becoming generally better with magic. All the spells are cast realtime in full 3D. Nice early PS lighting effects & seldom any real slowdown. All melee & bow combat is hit detection based(like tes Oblivion) not random stat rolls(like morrowind) so the better you get at the game the better you do. All rpg fans should try this game out & its a must play if you like 1st person RPGs. This game was the main reason i bought a playstation & i still go back & play it 1-2 times a year. There are 3 U.S. games in the franchise. If you've played KF & like it be sure to check out similar games from Fromsoftware(the developer) of KF. Try KF2 & Shadow Tower on the playstation & Eternal Ring & KF4 on the PS2 My numerical ratings 1-10 higher is better. Game play 9 slight bit of slowdown at times & no analog control support. Graphics 8 this game is close to 12 years old, but it looks ok to good. Music 10 some tracks are better than others but the worst is ok Fun factor 9 no game has the feel of KF EnjoyVollständige Rezension lesen

I have not figured out why but a lot of people do not like Kings field. Me personal I love every game in the series. As well as the other games ascii made. (shadow tower, eternal ring, echo night, and evergrace. These are my favorites in that order) I would recomend this game to people that love RPG games and first person. Tis is like a huge first person RPG game. The game is slow and takes time but it can suck you in. The graphics in kings field 1 are not the best in the world but good music and gameplay can suck many hours of your life away from you but afterwards it will be a fond memory of killing and triumph One great thing about this game its Cheap. I guess it does take a certain game player to play because though its one of my top 10 games ever almost all the magazine companies bashed this game and gave it horrible reviews. Buy it for a penny and if you don't like it you can list it and make your penny back.Vollständige Rezension lesen

This game provided an experience that had never been seen before on a console, and hasn't really been seen since. Blending first person action with RPG elements and excellent gameplay, it took about 30-45 minutes to get used to it, but once you do, everything you do feels like a great achievment in a wonderful adventure. Hard to put down, and easy to come back to, this is another very unique game that should NOT be missed by anyone.
Game plays great no scratches

This game is hard to find at a reasonable price, so I was happy to find this listing. It's just the disc, which is all I needed, and it's in perfect condition. It's yielded hours of gameplay with no issues so far.

One of my most favorite ps1 games ever

Good condition, great price, awesome game. As a kid all I remember about my parents and brothers playing this game is that it gave me nightmares. Now that I own it, it's obviously because it is very challenging and it involves a lot of dying. A ton. If you're looking for a challenging retro game, this one is a really wonderful choice.
No issues
