One of the lesser known titles of 1998, a year bulging at the seams with excellent games across all platforms, was Atlus' Kartia: Word of Fate. Despite having artwork by reknowned FF artist Y. Amano, Kartia just wasn't good enough to compete with the like of Xenogears, Zelda OOT, Final Fantasy... Read full review »
I wish this game received more recognition.
The reason why I bought this game was because the characters of this game was designed by Amano. He's responsible for designing all or most of the characters in Final Fantasy series. (I bet you heard of that series...)
This game is a simulation game more than an rpg game. It's very...

Long, hard, and pretty
Although this was the first game of the genre that I had ever played, I thought to go into it with an open mind.
By doing so, I discovered this interested little gem known as Kartia. I was overly impressed with the high quality 2-D graphics on a 3-D tile based backround.

What a strange little game.
Few times have I been stumped by a game. Not stumped as in I was stuck at a point in the game, but stumped as in "What the hell kind of game is this?". Behold Kartia, one great big mess of a game.
I didn't buy this game. I was at a friends house, saw the wierd pictures on the cover and...

Great strategy game
This game was pretty good. I like pretty much all games by Atlus. This one had a great appeal to me because I love strategy games. While the game play was pretty much linear, it was still an extremely fun game. The graphics and sound were not spectacular but I believe that game play is much more... Read full review »
The main point....
I think the entire game is boring. Don't get me wrong. I don't hate the game; I love it!
I just think the graphics were a bit underdone. (That means they were simple old school graphics.)
At the store I got Kartia at, Walmart, the following games also caught my attention: Final Fantasy...

Strategic RPG that you'll either love or hate.
Kartia: The Word of Fate, is an RPG that is more a strategy based game than a traditional role-playing adventure that you might pick off the shelf. Kartia is a turn based adventure that allows you to move each of your players on the screen and have each perform different functions to an opponent:... Read full review »
Love It or Hate It
Having read the other opinions on this game, I clearly see that this is a "love it or hate it" kind of game. For me personally, and a few other people I have talked about this game with, it is definately a "love it" game.
To avoid disappointment, I think you have to know what you're...

just plain sucked
Atlus in my eyes is a great game development company, with ogrebattle, TacticsOgre, and other style games like that. So i figured Kartia would be the same way. Boy was i wrong. I put the game in and probably play it for a total of 5 hours. It was crappy. The storyline was really lame and basic. The... Read full review »
Kartia, The Word of Oh who the heck cares?
I'm embarrassed to say that I played most of this game.
At a time when I had nothing else to play.
I felt so dirty.
I'd actually read some good reviews on this game before I started into it and discovered how truly boring a game can make itself.
I don't usually...

Kartia: The Word of Trash
Kartia was one of the worst games I have ever played. The storyline was bland and boring. There was no real innovation in the game either. Everything had already been done in one game or another. The game was short too. Each battle was a chapter and the conversation was the most boring part about... Read full review »
The Truth about Kartia
Here's my two cents folks - This game is not in any way worth buying. Why do I say this you ask? A few reasons. First, the so called multiplayer component of this game is nothing more than a few small levels of minimal strategic variance. The pregenerated armies are nothing more than an outright...

Kartia: The Word of Fate
From some of the visionaries behind the Final Fantasy series, Persona, and Soul Hackers comes this strategy/role- playing game where players use magic to control their environment. Kartia is named after a card game that the game's characters use to conjure all sorts of magic. You'll freeze rivers, raise or lower ground, and clear fields to give your army a tactical advantage. And you'll also be able to create your own weapons, armor, and phantoms to go with you into turn-based battles--some of which comprise over 20 characters. In Kartia, you'll choose between two characters whose unique, intermingling stories come to different endings. As a bonus, players can trade special items from the game with friends via a standard memory card.
