  • Summary: The tune of Japanese Taiko Drums and the Dark Hymns of children are heard throughout the night. Residents wander like ghosts, and hungry demons creep in the darkness. The Heian-kyo Period of Ancient Japan where mysticism and magic will require you to reach deep within your soul to uncover the mysteries of the undead. A dark 3D adventure that comes to life in stunning detail with atmospheric lighting, shadows, and special effects. Battle Demons in Real-Time combat using magic, summons, and traditional Heian weaponry. Uncut & Uncensored- See the Directors Original Vision of Horror. You are prey to some of the most visually stunning and imaginative monsters ever seen. [Agetec Inc.]… Expand

    It definitely makes one hope there's a "Kuon 2." [Holiday 2004, p.92]

    Freakiest of all though, are those sunken-eyed ghoulish geishas that pop up every five minutes - more chilling than any slathering zombie. Brrr.

    Overall, despite the admittedly sloppy combat, Kuon manages miraculously to be even less than the sum of all its parts, diminishing and lowering the playability of the game as a whole.

    As mentioned : great atmosphere, music and graphics. The game is REALLY scary but a little bit slow and an interesting story. If you like that kind of survival-horror game you must buy it!! Enjoy it : )… Expand

    Somewhat creepy but slow battles, frustrating controls and repetitive. a game ought to be fun first before it can be scary.
