A divine intervention is needed to restore natural order and beauty to a dismal world. As the wolf-embodied sun goddess Amaterasu, you must utilize a mythical command of the elements in several stirring battles to decimate the diabolical forces that threaten your quest for restoration. Okami is a blissful blend of Japanese folklore and stunning watercolor-esque calligraphy art whose intrigue will compel you to overcome the evil entities that await.

Conquering impending enemies is no small feat. You'll voyage through scenic 3D regions of the world in various levels of gameplay to regain Amaterasu's Celestial Brush powers. With an innovative control scheme, you can slash away at enemies — namely the legendary demonic monster, Orochi — with the stroke of the brush. Use the brush to solve puzzles, create pathways, cut down trees, or turn night into day. Interact with a dynamic cast of characters to revitalize their faith, all while uncovering clues and hints as you journey through vibrant and distinctive settings.
