Synopsis

Folklore is a 2007 action role-playing video game developed by Game Republic and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 3. Set in Ireland and the Celtic Otherworld of Irish mythology, the game follows two protagonists: a young woman named Ellen and a journalist named Keats, who work together to unravel the mysteries of the quaint village of Doolin by seeking the memories of the dead in the Netherworld. Announced at E3 2006 and originally titled Monster Kingdom: Unknown Realms as a companion piece to Gaia's Monster Kingdom: Jewel Summoner, the game was co-directed by Yoshiki Okamoto. The first playable demo was released on the Japanese PlayStation Network in May 2007. A month later, the soundtrack album, composed by Kenji Kawai and Shinji Hosoe, was released. On the review aggregator Metacritic, the game received a generally positive reception. Game Republic proposed two sequels for the game to Sony, but Sony did not greenlight the projects due to low sales.
