Summary

Experience the critically acclaimed masterpiece with its renowned Sumi-e ink art style in breathtaking high resolution. Take on the role of Amaterasu, the Japanese sun goddess who inhabits the form of a legendary white wolf, on a quest to defeat Orochi, an eight-headed demon and tyrannical monster responsible for turning the world of Nippon into a ruined wasteland.

Okami HD is nothing short of a masterpiece. This game is so unique in the action/adventure genre even with being heavily inspired by The Legend of Zelda series. I have now beaten both this game, and it's sequel, and I'm just going to say, they are beautiful. You can really never go wrong with Okami. I played this game a lot when I was younger on the Wii, but I didn't know the slightest bit of what to do. I just ran around doing what I thought was fun at the time, and never got close to beating it. Now, I can say proudly that I've beaten the game and loved every bit of it.

Okami HD is truly breathtaking, both visually, and in it's story and soundtrack. The remastered graphics are fantastic. Going back to the original version is pretty hard now that I've played the remaster, though that isn't really a bad thing. Okami deserves more credit than it's given, and more players than it has. It's story is both unique and full of character. From the characters, to the adventures, to the side-quests, to the landscapes you traverse through, it's all unique, and there will most likely never be a game that has what Okami has to offer (did I mention the story is nearly 30 hours?). The soundtrack is by far among the best soundtracks I've ever heard, right next to, maybe even surpassing Celeste's gorgeous soundtrack. I'd buy this game for the soundtrack alone if I didn't know the game itself was good. That's just how good it is.

If you've never played Okami, you're in for a treat. If you have played Okami, but haven't played the HD remaster, you're in for a treat. If you've already beaten this version, go play the sequel (OkamiDen) if you can get your hands on it, as it is fairly rare.

Genuinely one of the greatest games of all time. I had a blast going through this game.

A bit too easy and boring to hold my attention.

While the story feels too long at points it's very enjoyable at times. The combat feels fun to play and the brush is a fun mechanic. And the art style is amazing. Must play.
