There are some cut scenes scattered throughout, but a lot of the story is told through what the player finds as they explore. Not the kind that makes your heart stop around every bend, but the kind that makes you progressively feel less and less at ease. But King’s Field provides just the right kind of horror for me. I don’t like horror games because I’m a big wuss. The scenery, music (or sometimes the lack thereof) and even the barebonedness of the mechanics all work together to create a very ominous, eerie field of play. They’re RPGs at heart, but I would say that they hinge on horror. It’s got atmosphere coming out the wazoo. The one thing that the King’s Field series really has going for it is its atmosphere.
