Okage: Shadow King

Okage: Shadow King (2001)

by Zener Works Inc., Sony Computer Entertainment
Genres:Role-playing (RPG), Adventure
Themes:Action, Comedy, Horror
Game modes:Single player
Story:Conquer your demons and you may conquer the world in this distinctly styled role-playing adventure for the PlayStation 2. Some have compared the look of this game to Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas and the fluid, stop-motion appearance of the three-dimensional characters is not completely unlike that seen in seasonal television specials. OKAGE: Shadow King is not a holiday story, however, but a dark tale of polar opposites that questions basic notions of identity and essence. Players take the role of Ari, a young man with a remarkable affliction. A powerful demon -- calling himself "Stan" -- has taken refuge in Ari's shadow and is becoming infused in the boy's life. To free both his demon and himself, Ari embarks on a dangerous and involved quest to rid the world of seven other rival demons. Though he suffers under the burden of playing host to Stan, Ari is also aided from time to time by his demon's powers and the two begin to forge a symbiotic relationship.Show more

I absolutely love this game. I played this game a few years ago on my ps2 and had a really fun time with it, the characters are written well and have really cool goofy designs, and I really love the tim burton vibe this game has and I personally think this game should be available to more people to enjoy this masterpiece

This was such a charming game and one of my childhood favorites. It is funny, it is cute, it is absolutely nutty and every character has its own charm. A very unique coming of age story turned to save the world adventure with tons of laughs and heartwarming moments.

This was the first ps2 game I bought with my own money. I hand drew a map for the world library as a kid. Boogie Knight, if you're out there, thanks for all the forum help with OSK in the early 2000s.
This game oddly enough wasnt my first choice of games that came with ps2 demo cd. But its main character’s English name, Ari, was the same as my dad’s nickname, so it caught my attention and we got the game. Now coming up 24 years later, I’m making my own fan sequel as a love letter to this series. Sekimoto’s unique artwork and the love letter style parody to RPGs story line is something I wish people to see more. I do agree the gameplay can be janky, defiantly a product of its time, but the art, characters and story makes up for it.
