Review by Rizal, [5/10]. "Overall, Koudelka has the potential to be something special, but fall flat on its face in terms of execution."

Review by Dale Weir. " Sadly, for all its ambitious intentions and grand accomplishments in graphics and sound, there really isn't anything else to hold the game up in between the impressive CG scenes and dialogue."

"Overall, Koudelka falls short of expectations in the gameplay department, but the beautiful CG work in the game's movies definitely makes the experience a memorable one." Review by Ike Sato with screen shots and overall score.

Review by J.T.Kauffman including photos. "In the end, though, an intriguing story and quality cutscenes are not always enough to keep a player going through a game that is lacking in other aspects."

Review by Erik Reckase, [C]. "It seems to me that Sacnoth took one game (a great-looking gothic horror adventure) and combined it with another (using a sorry excuse for an RPG engine), resulting in an unpleasant gaming experience."

"A lot of the problems found in PlayStation games these days can be blamed on the system's now-ancient hardware, but you can't blame the hardware for Koudelka's poor RPG elements. The sub-par battle system and control are just enough to out-weigh the excellent story, voice acting, and environments." Review by Jimmy Payne.

Review by Jake Alley, [3.5/5]. "Despite the fundamentally contrasting natures of these genres, the end result is surprisingly well done."

Review of the game's soundtrack by Daniel Kalabakov. "While I know that this album is not fit for everyone's taste, and that it surely doesn't topple his earlier works, I still must say that it is a wonderful piece of art."
