Otogi: Myth of Demons

Product description:

Otogi: Myth of Demons is a stylish and atmospheric action game set in a dark, mythological version of ancient Japan. You play as Raikoh, a fallen prince and deadly samurai, resurrected by supernatural forces to cleanse a world full of demons, spirits, and dilapidated temples. With fast-paced sword combat, magical powers, and fully destructible environments, Otogi offers a unique combination of beauty and brutal violence.

Three interesting facts:

1. From the creators of Dark Souls
   Otogi was developed by FromSoftware, long before their global fame with Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls. The game already features early characteristics of their style: mysticism, cryptic storytelling, and atmospheric worlds full of death and decay.
2. Fully destructible environments
   One of the most striking features was the ability to destroy almost everything in a level. Statues, walls, bridges – if you hit it with enough force, it would break. This enhanced the feeling of power and chaos.
3. Mix of action and poetry
   Despite the brutal combat, Otogi is surprisingly graceful. The movements are fluid, the aesthetics are artistic, and the soundtrack contains serene, almost spiritual music – which gives the game a unique atmosphere rarely found in hack-and-slash titles.
