Okami and Shadow of the Colossus are both wonderfully fulfilling and artistic experiences. The boss battles are just as grandiose here as they are in Shadow of the Colossus as well. Traveling through the world of Okami is an adventure in and of itself. Additionally, the game world of Okami is glorious to look at and gets even better in the HD remake. This is such a unique idea that has never been replicated to the same effect. Okami uses traditional Japanese brush painting as a means of engaging in combat with enemies. No other game on this list fits that criteria better than Okami. Shadow of the Colossus is often referred to as a piece of art, rather than a video game (as are the other titles in Team Ico’s collection).

If you enjoyed the design of the Colossi and the unique take Team Ico used to adapt each inspiratory source, Nioh does the exact same thing with its bosses! 11. Nioh is a game that also utilizes compelling boss fights to keep players hooked much like Shadow of the Colossus does. Similarly, in Nioh, almost all of the boss battles are based on traditional Japanese Yokai (monsters from folklore). Several Colossi in this game are based on mythical creatures such as minotaurs, Cerberus, and kirin. Nioh is a game that focuses on taking down uniquely designed and exciting bosses. If you enjoy a dark and atmospheric game with lots of hidden lore and head-canon created by fans, Majora’s Mask is the game for you. For example, the Deku Maks players receive at the start of the game is thought to be of the deceased son of the Deku Butler. Similarly, Majora’s Mask has a lot of conspiracy theories surrounding it as well. This was later revealed to be false, but the secret seekers left an impact as, in the remake of Shadow of the Colossus, a sword can be acquired by collecting various glowing objects scattered about the world. Fans were convinced that one more boss was secretly hidden somewhere within the game’s code. For those unaware, Shadow of the Colossus’s quest for the 17th colossus occupied hundreds of pages on a forum thread before the advent of modding and emulation. In Shadow of the Colossus, Dormin’s presence is always there whenever you return to base camp after defeating a boss.Īnother contributing factor to Majora’s Mask’s inclusion is the various myths surrounding it. In Majora’s Mask, the moon that will destroy the world in three days gets closer and closer to the ground as time goes on. However, both these games lean heavily into the overwhelming atmospheric tension that looms over you throughout your playthrough. While both titles are 3D action-adventure games, Shadow of the Colossus focuses more on the boss rush element of the game, whereas Majora’s mask is more so interested in dungeons and sidequests. Majora’s Mask and Shadow of the Colossus are very different games when it comes to gameplay.

In Shadow of the Colossus, the eery silence and lack of any other life make every situation feel just as tense.įor deeply atmospheric games that focus on unique and compelling boss battles, the Dark Souls series is a must-play. In Dark Souls, any lowly enemy could spell the end of your playthrough if you aren’t being careful. However, both of these games totally nail the sense of dread and loneliness while traversing through their respective worlds. Shadow of the Colossus delivers the same approach albeit with a lot more of a baron world to explore.
