Description
Okage: Shadow King is an rpg with a slight twist, which lies in the fact that the game uses humor as its main attraction.
The game's premise is about a boy who makes a deal with an evil spirit to cure his sister of a curse that's caused her to speak entirely in pig Latin. The spirit, Evil King Stanley Hihat Trinidad XIV (or Stan for short), assumes the role of your shadow and orders you to track down the lost remnants of his power, which have been siphoned away by imposter Evil Kings over the last few thousand years while he was trapped in a bottle. And, while you're at it, Stan would also like you to help him take over the world.
You do all the regular rpg routine. visit towns and fight (turn based) monsters - which in this game happen to be things like wild cows and man eating onions.
Alternate Titles
- "Boku no Maou" -- Japanese Title
