Okami, which means "wolf" in Japanese, is a stunning-looking new action / adventure which looks as fun to play as it is beautiful to behold.
Okami puts players into the role of a white wolf, the living avatar of the sun god Amaterasu, who is fighting to restore a world that's been spoiled at the hands of the legendary monster Orochi.
Okami's adventures are brought to vivid life through highly stylized graphics meant to simulate the distinctive look of ancient Japanese "sumi-e" drawings, with thick fl lines, pastel colors, and parchment-like textures.
