Consigliato vivamente a chi cerca un must have o anche a chi vuole intraprendere un grandioso viaggio di fantasia.
I initially stumbled upon this little known game back in 2006 on my friend's Playstation 2. After an hour of gameplay, I was utterly hooked, but unfortunately didn't get a chance to play anymore. During the intervening 12 years between then and now, despite university, career, marriage, child taking evermore of my time, I keep on thinking back to the brief experience I have with this game and each time secretly vowed to complete what I started all those years ago. With this complete remake of Shadow of Colossus by Bluepoint Games, my opportunity has finally come to continue where I left off.
The premise of this game tells a simple tale of a boy warrior named 'Wander', who accompanied by his trusty steed Agro, must traverse a foreign and mysterious land to slay colossal magical beings of immense power and stature in order to bring a girl back from the dead. There's no text heavy exposition of the story, or longwinded backstories, instead the game relies on crafting a world that shows rather than tells, whilst leaving some questions to the imagination. As you explore the vast landscape in search of these Colossi, the game simply oozes atmosphere in a subtle and serene way. I really felt like a lonely traveller, who is never quite sure of what is beyond the next hill or down the valley, but know that the peace will inevitably be shattered upon discovering the next Colossus foe. When this occurs, the game switches up to 6th gear and presents an exhilarating fight that easily rivals and exceeds the final boss fight found in any other game. Defeating these Colossus is more like an environmental puzzle, requiring you to evade been squashed whilst finding a route to climb to the top of the Colossus to deliver the fatal blow. The Colossi are varied in their appearance and behaviour, and a different strategy must be devised for each encounter. I was surprised to find that fighting each Colossus to be a really satisfying game experience, with a challenge that is not brutally unforgiving (not Dark Souls/Bloodborne), whilst presenting enough visual clues toward a solution. This is a refreshing change from many modern games that either require mindless grinding down of an enemy health bar (ahem..Destiny), or walking simulators that leave little room for player imagination (e.g. Uncharted series, Call of Duty series to name a few).
For a 12 year old game, the graphics have been completely rebuilt. The result is simply fantastic as I notice subtle details such as the footprints in the sand, or the water dripping off Wander's clothes in the rain. Strangely enough, looking at this game now is just how I remembered when I first played this back in 2006. Perhaps this reflects the masterful work done by the developer Bluepoint Games, showing their ability to update the graphics for a modern era whilst preserving the feel of the original game.
Lastly the sound effects and the accompanying music is beautiful, and shows that in this case, less is more. During the majority of your traversal across the the desert or the grass plains, there is only the sound of the wind and the hooves of your horse with no music. I found this to only heighten the sense of loneliness and the mystery in this land. Once the music kicks in at appropriate moments, it plays a soothing yet mournful melody, making me question whether my decision to slay these magnificent creatures, and in many instances left me with a sense of regret and guilt.
Finishing this game took me around 9 hours, which is the perfect length for someone like me with very limited free time to enjoy gaming these days. For those looking to get more enjoyment time, there is a 'Timeattack' mode and 'Hard difficulty' that offers greater challenge leading to a range of in-game rewards such as cosmetic items, picture gallery etc. There are also items to collect around the world that require exploring every nook and cranny. My only objective criticism is that once your know where to find and how to defeat the Colossi after a single playthrough, the challenge and the wonder is gone, which will no doubt detract from further playthroughs. However for me, this game is not about offering excessive playtime, instead it offered me an experience and a journey. I probably won't play it again, but I don't need to, the game has left its mark on me and I am sure I will fondly reflect on these memories for years to come.
