Koudelka (Video Game) | comment |
Koudelka is a hybrid Survival Horror/Eastern RPG videogame, released in 1999 for the Playstation. The game was followed by a Stealth Sequel Shadow Hearts, which in turn spun off into the eponymous series.The game is set in Wales in 1898, and follows Koudelka Iasant, a young gypsy girl with magic powers, who investigates the mysterious Nemeton Monastery after experiencing visions about it. She's later joined by an unlucky thief Edward Plunkett and Vatican bishop James O'Flaherty, who searches for a certain Tome of Eldritch Lore. | |

Blatant Item Placement | |
Koudelka (Video Game) / int_175543cd | comment |
Blatant Item Placement: Koudelka follows this out of necessity, but it's made slightly jarring by the fact that the game is, by comparison, extremely stingy about armor. | |

Multiple Endings | |
Koudelka (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Three endings, with bad ending being canonical. Non Standard Game Over: Fail to collect Koudelka's Pendant before the Final Boss, and it will immediately kill the party in the most gruesome manner possible. Bad/Canon ending: Collect Koudelka's Pendant, but lose to the final form of the final boss: The party is beaten, but James sacrifices himself to kill the monster. Good ending: Collect Koudelka's Pendant, and win against the final form of the final boss: The boss dies, and Elaine's soul appears to reunite with her body before she dies. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Koudelka's amulet that she loses while scaling the monastery's roof. Finding it is vital to being able to actually challenge the Final Boss. | |

Stat Sticks | |
Koudelka (Video Game) / int_41658cfc | comment |
Stat Sticks: This is how Koudelka treated non-missile weapons, in fact against the hidden boss Gargoyle (which guarded the sword Sacnoth), the method is to boost someone's stats: Play the long enough and you get Gargoyle's Claw. Equip it on someone and arrange the formation so that wielder is in front. The Gargoyle's Claw will increase the wielder's stats by huge numbers, since the Claw is breakable just have the wielder defend. The Gargoyle will keep attacking the wielder for weak damage while your other heroes keep hitting the beast until it dies. | |

Koudelka (Video Game) / int_5ac34441 | comment |
Call a Rabbit a "Smeerp": A fourth-wall-breaching example. The player can rename any item in the game, be it equipment or consumables. Want the cast to be healed by vials of crystal meth, or attack enemies with the Chuck Norris Gun? Have at it. | |

Play Every Day | |
Koudelka (Video Game) / int_5ad39c3a | comment |
Play Every Day: To a degree it shows up in Koudelka, only the game goes by hours played rather than days. Increasingly more useful equipment is automatically given to the party the longer the player keeps playing the game, until it finally ends with getting the Gargoyle's Claw, the most powerful weapon in the game. | |

Meaningful Name | |
Koudelka (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: "Koudelka" is a Czech name (originally a nickname) meaning "tow-headed," or blonde. It's not unreasonable for it to have migrated west among her Roma forebears. In game, she tells Edward that her nickname as a gypsy was "Szlato", meaning "treasure". | |

Guide Dang It! | |
Koudelka (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: The game has several secret items, which can be obtained only by having a specific number of items in your inventory, and saving the game with second-perfect timing. For example, saving game exactly at playtime of 22:22:22 with 10 items in your inventory nets you Roger's Cane, the most powerful weapon in the game. That's over twice the amount of time needed to finish the game normally, by the way. To get any ending besides a Non Standard Game Over you need to fish a key item out of a fountain three discs after it fell in. If you miss it, you can still recieve it as a Random Drop, but finding out about that is another instance of this trope. | |

Breakable Weapons | |
Koudelka (Video Game) / int_af8974a3 | comment |
Breakable Weapons: The gist of combat system. Every melee weapon will eventually break, forcing the character to fall back on their fists. Most weapons break randomly between 15 and 30 strikes, while secret weapons will last somewhere between 100 and 255 uses. Guns and crossbows do not break, but hold limited amounts of ammo, forcing the character to waste a turn to reload. | |

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The main trio doesn't get along very well. Koudelka sees Edward as too naive, while Father O'Flaherty initially believing them both to be thieves. They start travelling together only for safety. | |

Gameplay and Story Integration: While most firearm drops appear in your inventory fully loaded, one specific rifle can be picked up that is missing two bullets. Specifically, Bessy's rifle, which she used in the cutscene prior to kill her husband and herself with one bullet each. | |

Emergency Weapon: Bare fists, what else. It's the only "weapon" that will never break, but most attempts to fight off man-eating horrors with your bare hands will go as well as you'd expect. | |
