Saint Kotar, as I’ve said, has these interesting ideas that never fully formed. They also said a cat was the King in Yellow, so things were a bit muddy. They introduced them as an actual character, and literally twenty minutes later we killed him by strapping him to a pendulum saw. For example, they brought up The King in Yellow, a rather famous book of short horror stories. There were times where something bizarre happened, or an actually intriguing concept was brought in. The mystique around this strange town actually hooked me for that hour I spoke of. The most interesting part of the story itself is the setting, I would say. This also makes it hard to care about these characters. There are a few good voices, but they are mostly drowned out by the bad. Most of the time I’d laugh at the way a line is delivered, or mock it. Not to mention the fact that the voice acting, most of it at least, is abysmal. If that was the point, I’m afraid that doesn’t excuse it, for I just didn’t care what happened to anybody, leading to me not caring what happened next. The two main leads are both annoying and just outright abhorrent at times.
I am confident in saying that I don’t think any of the characters in Saint Kotar are likeable or even interesting. Of course, I can’t forget to mention the characters. What is worse is that there were points that felt like they’d lead to something worth talking about, but it only amounted to nothing. I was interested in possibly the first hour, wondering where it might lead to, but it didn’t lead to anything exciting or even intriguing. Unfortunately, I found the story to be wanting. In doing so, they march themselves right into a horrific nightmare filled with strange events and even stranger characters. Two men of more monotheistic belief, Benedek and Nikolay, are here to search for the missing sister of Benedek, Viktoria, who is also Nikolay’s wife. Saint Kotar takes place in a town called Sveti Kotar, where the people worship Ancient Gods. Saint Kotar is a narrative driven point-and-click adventure game that tries to tap into such horrors, but can it pull it off? Two Religious Men That being said, there’s plenty to enjoy in the horrors of religion, from the dogmatic fervor to the gods’ horrific wrath.
Growing up, I never really considered myself religious, so the idea of horror pertaining to religion only gets to me if there’s something truly wicked.
