Ōkami was one of the last PlayStation 2 games released prior to the release of the PlayStation 3. The game's name is a pun, as " ōkami" can mean either "great god" ( 大神) or "wolf" ( 狼) in Japanese. The gameplay is modeled on The Legend of Zelda, one of director Hideki Kamiya's favorite series. Clover Studio switched to a cel-shaded style to reduce the processing, which led to the Celestial Brush concept. The game was planned to use more traditional realistic rendering, but this had put a strain on the graphics processing of the PlayStation 2. It features a sumi-e-inspired cel-shaded visual style and the Celestial Brush, a gesture-system to perform miracles. Set in classical Japan, Ōkami combines Japanese mythology and folklore to tell the story of how the land was saved from darkness by the Shinto sun goddess, named Amaterasu, who took the form of a white wolf. ![]() After the closure of Clover Studio a few months after the release, a port for Wii was developed by Ready at Dawn, Tose, and Capcom, and released in 2008. It was released for PlayStation 2 in 2006 in Japan and North America, and in 2007 in Europe and Australia. "great god" or "great spirit" also 狼, "wolf") is an action-adventure video game developed by Clover Studio and published by Capcom. They do not respond to either of those access techniques, but they do have healing powers when entered.Ōkami ( Japanese: 大神, lit. While they allow her to restart at that point if she runs out of both Solar Energy and Astral Pouches and die, they do not create a save file and thus she must save at an Origin Mirror before exiting.Ī few areas of the game have small swirling pools that vaguely resemble Mermaid springs or Waterspout geyser sources. By walking through them, Amaterasu's memories are stored and she can recover them if she die. " Golden Gate" checkpoints often appear before encountering bosses or other dangerous situations. There are two other types of objects within Ōkami with similar properties to the Origin Mirrors. Kamui (Ezofuji): This one can only be accessed via Mist Warp.Wep'keer: Near the entrance from Kamui.Kamui:In an alcove near the entrance to Shinshu Field.Another one is found in a rocky area use Mist Warp to reach it. North Ryoshima Coast: On the left hand side of the river.South Ryoshima Coast: Near the entrance to the City Checkpoint.City Checkpoint: On the east side of the bridge, near the entrance to Taka Pass.Sasa Sanctuary: Near the entrance to the inn.Kusa Village: At the entrance to Taka Pass, near the Merchant.Taka Pass: Near the entrance to Agata forest, opposite the Merchant.Agata Forest: In the cave where Madame Fawn's house is found.Shinshu Field: Near the Guardian Sapling.Kamiki Village: Between Kushi's brewery and the exit to Shinshu Field.However, given the power of the mirrors, it seems entirely possible. This is not shown in Ōkami, as all the Origin Mirrors Amaterasu discovers in the past are normal Origin Mirrors. Interestingly, the game suggests that it is possible to travel through time with Ultimate Origin Mirrors, since Chibiterasu can travel back and forth from the present time and Nippon one hundred years ago via one of these special mirrors. Moreover, he must also be accompanied by a partner. However, Chibiterasu must have Kagu's Charm in order for this to work. In Ōkamiden, it is still possible to warp using Ultimate Origin Mirrors. These mirrors are similar in appearance to other Origin Mirrors however they have a small and intricately designed wooden roof over them. Ultimate Origin Mirrors are found in the most important places in the game, including towns/villages and fields ( see the list below). These rocky areas contain rarities such as Stray Beads, clovers, rare treasures, and animals to feed. Two Ultimate Mirrors are located in rocky areas and consequently require Mist Warp to find. However, Amaterasu will need to buy the Fog Pot from the Emperor for that to work. There are fifteen special Origin Mirrors called Ultimate Origin Mirrors and they allow the use of teleportation by drawing an X shape on them in addition to saving. ![]()
