  1. Worth Playing
    90
    It's a solid experience with a somewhat steep learning curve...and a surprisingly deep skill system.
  2. Game Chronicles

    The story is innovative, and so is the attunement system and the character advancement system.
  3. Gamer's Hell

    The game plays well, and although the character abilities aren’t particularly original (elemental attacks, etc.) this is more a criticism of the whole genre, and Kult has a refreshing system to learn and use them. The story is a strong point too, which for an RPG is probably the most important aspect for most players.

    It works, but we have a sense of been there and done that. What keeps the game interesting and compelling is watching the growth of the main character.

    Heretic's innovative design deserves applause. [July 2005, p.73]

    The saving grace of this game is its affordable price mark.
  7. PC Format
    55
    Does little to enliven the usual trail of hacking, slashing and opening boxes. We're pretty sure it shows the world's worst character creation screen: you can change your hairstyle and, er, your clothing. [Christmas 2004, p.122]

    Well, probably one of the bests RPGs ever and I'm not saying that just because I'm from Slovakia like the authors (3D People). Kult Well, probably one of the bests RPGs ever and I'm not saying that just because I'm from Slovakia like the authors (3D People). Kult has IMHO very sofisticated storyline and great character leveling and skill system which I've never seen before, as well as the ability to access Dreamworld - alternative dimension which is inhabited by spirits. It brings a fresh breeze into this genre. Althrough character generation may be unsatisfying as you can only play as a female, it enables the storyline to develop very well. This game is 1000% worth playing!… Expand

(oh, and character generation is simple but this is a *story* driven game - i didn't hear anyone marking down games like final fantasy vii which have no character generation screen at all!!!)… Expand

    Dull, boring game in which the protagonist looks like she jumped out from a soft porn scene to a religion themed diablo anticlone. Is thereDull, boring game in which the protagonist looks like she jumped out from a soft porn scene to a religion themed diablo anticlone. Is there any reason why we have to play a female character? Other than badly drawn boobs to attract 12 year olds like Nitin K. down here? Well I'm not from Slovakia and my voting isn't effected by nationalist feelings. This sucks.… Expand
