A boy has been kidnapped & taken to a large expansive castle and encounters a creature named Trico. From the creators of ICO & Shadow of the Collosus plot: The boy wakes to find tattoos on his body he did not have before being kidnapped.[8] The boy finds a way to escape captivity, and encounters the creature Trico, chained up and with numerous spears and arrows sticking out from its body. The boy helps to remove the weapons, and though Trico is initially hostile to him, the creature slowly starts to accept the boy's care and guidance.[9] Together the two work to escape, avoiding or attacking guards that patrol the castle seeking to recapture them.[10] Much of the game is set around the developing friendship between the boy and Trico.[11][12] As the highly anticipated release of The Last Guardian finally nears, we’re hearing more and more from the community about how designer Fumito Ueda’s work has touched them.
