Also known as Folksoul, this was the first game I ever got for PS3. I've always liked it since it had a very magical feel without relying too heavily on standard fare fantasy. In fact the environments are absolutely gorgeous, very rarely do I respond to scenery but Folklore definitely got that right.

It made good use of the SIXAXIS controls. The game had its hard and easy parts, most of which could be solved depending on what monster you were trying to kill and with what. Most of the puzzle solving besides a maze level was really about finding the right "weapon" to attack with.

I recall the game not selling many units in the US, but it was still quite good in my opinion. There was also a good deal of DLC that made the game last a lot longer and expanded on the story which happened to be quite mysterious as is.


Actually, this was the game that got me into Abingdon Boys School (though I think a few other DJs like them better than I). I remember loving the song and always wanting the soundtrack, but there was no limited release with the game sadly. It also had a reversible cover that was pretty nice, too.

Either way, I liked a lot of the abilities and how costumes effected the gameplay. I had a lot more fun playing as the girl than the male. Just curious is anyone else likes this game or is interested in playing it?
