Well lads and ladettes, we finally reached the end of this experience of a game.

Let's finish up on the Yang quest first --- which by the way, all I had to do was -walk- on that last room that I died in in part 7, and no ghosts appear. I get that it's a game mechanic, but good lord.

So, we finish up Yang quest, and then immediately head into the Kuon quest. Now I did choose 'maximize items' just to see what it was (holy crap), but you are very well prepared regardless on the Kuon quest. It's like the game finally throws you a bone after all this nonsense. The Kuon quest is not long, and as we mention, doesn't tie a lot of stuff up.

So what is Kuon? Kuon is a -very- unique horror game. It's got a lot of good ideas: I like the general story (although it's told poorly), I like the idea of the spells, and I like the idea of the 3 quests. Unfortunately, it's just presented really poorly. It takes a game that could easily be a solid 7-8 with solid gameplay and controls, and makes it a 5, no higher.

As I always say, I am glad I played this game --- it was an experience and it was unique --- but I will never have the hankering to play it again. It's just so frustrating to do so. Thanks for watching!
