How it feels
Painting miracles across a living Japanese ink-brush world feels like stepping inside a sacred folktale brought to joyful, colorful life.

About
Set sometime in classical Japanese history, Ōkami combines several 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 with celestial markings covering its fur. It features a distinct sumi-e-inspired cel-shaded visual style and the Celestial Brush, a gesture-system used to perform miracles.
What players say
A commercial flop that became a beloved cult classic, praised for its timeless sumi-e ink-and-wash art that looks like a living watercolor. Players find it a charming, artful action-adventure widely seen as one of Capcom's most underappreciated gems.
