An adaptation of the SIXAXIS into the movement of the mouse for this game will be wild! It's an hidden gem of a game in the PS3 library, unique and fun. It's a short game, but it has my heart because it was my first PS3 game rented in a Blockbuster.
Sadly, the studio that made this gem closed down. I remember playing it and being enamored with the murder mystery story combined with a monster collectaton. A bit rough on the edges, but had so much potential as an IP with a mix of creatures/yokais and 3rd person action combat. It deserves to be remembered.

I really like the story and combat style of this game I also remember they had some region locked monsters which were different for Japan and the UK version. Folklore was available only on ps3 and I’ve never completed the story so it would be great to immerse into that game once again

One of the very few games with summoning+action combat. I really liked it back in the day. It also had a song by Abingdon Boys School, similar to Gundam animes of the time. I also loved graphics/character designs/vibes of this game. Would love to relive it.

Never really had a chance to play that game, but i remember my girlfriend telling me about that game when we first met, once she tried to boot it on PS3 but gyro in controller was broken so we couldn't make it past the first fight. I really would love to play that game to understand what my gf was so passionate about.
