Dimension PSX (PS Extreme), Cover and Cover Story - Feb. `96:

*The environment you're exploring feels like a real world with living
breathing inhabitants.
*The graphics are remarkably stunning, with amazing texture-mapping and
transparencies.

day, let alone a week.

P.S.X. Magazine:
*King's Field is a true adventure worthy of RPG Fans looking for a
thrill.
*With King's Field you have the ability to travel outdoors and up many
floors. The areas you explore range from an abandoned mine to the ruins
of an ancient castle. This game will make you feel as if you are really
there.
EGM2 (8 Page Review - Feb. `96)
*Finally, an RPG on the PlayStation. It's about time!
*King's Field isn't your average RPG. It has a first-person perspective
and is very Doom-like. However, when you're fighting the creatures, you
don't just aim and shoot. You have to hit them when they're most
vulnerable.
DREAMS OF AVARICE
King's Field is a lavish three dimensional world of rendered splendor.
Hundreds of hours of game play are offered in this magical island
paradise(-lost). Villages, towns-folk, secrets, and traps will have you
exploring for weeks -- that is if the enemies under the rule of the evil
demon Necron don't stop you first!
