I played them in chronological order very recently, King's Field 1 (JP with a fan translation) was really good with a great complex labyrinth i had to map out. Woah, so negative impression from people, hopefully i didn't listened to any of you when i asked the same question as OP. While there are better games to play today, I still think they are worth going through if you want a little more of that From Software magic (jank?). I'm planning to go through the series (Shadow Tower included) in order slowly as I don't have a whole lot of time and I have backlogs, but the series only looks like it improves so I'm excited. When I beat the final boss, I did a fist pump, grabbed the controller, turned around, and accidentally fell down a hole to my death. Ledges, like the Souls series, are still public enemy #1. While the gameplay is clunky I found it serviceable and enjoyable enough. However, it has great atmosphere that you can get sucked into. It's clunky definitely shows it's age (it takes 4 seconds to turn 180 degrees IIRC!). I personally loved it and played it to completion blind with the fan translation, but I'm willing to admit I'm a special kind of person. King's Field 1 (JP) was the first and only King's Field game that I've played so far. The game isn't extremely long, mechanics have been refined from the first 3 entries, and the frame rate isn't hot garbage. If you want the 'easiest' to get into, Kings field 4 is you answer. It's the slowest and hardest one to play.Įdits: why do you hate me mobile? Autocorrect is having fun today

However I would completely avoid Kings field 3.ģ has a horrible frame rate, has very questionable level deisgn, and the game over stays it's welcome. If you are willing to play the others Kings field 1 (Japan) as well as Kings field 2 (KF1 in the west) are worthy to try next. If you want the 'easiest' to get into, Kings field 4 is your answer.

You explore the game world picking up keys, finding switches and secrets, and unlocking new ways to explore. Your character levels up and you get new gear and magic. It's a first person RPG mixed with some metroidvania elements. It takes a lot of patience and dedication to play them.Īround 3 or 4 years ago I sat down and marathon'd the whole series. Combat and the over all pacing of the game is painfully slow. Be aware these games are very hard to get into.
