Handholding has never been this good.
In all seriousness Ico is truly one of a kind game with it's unique and ambient atmosphere backed up by it's environments that still looks good thanks to it's beatiful art direction,even the puzzles knows how to take advantage of these environments and play it in very interesting way that does makes me think out of the box couple times,it is a shame that the three to last level is an underwhelming compared to previous ones as its just the same level but reversed with some new tweaks.
Some might say the combat and the movement is too loose or a bit basic but i think it's still bearable just take some time to get used to it's movement and positioning ICO then ur good for the rest of the game and despite it's minimalistic and subtle nature of the story it's still an pretty story that the game succeed at implementing this through gameplay,world,and soundtrack.
Truth be told going into ICO i'm a bit afraid that it will ended up be somewhat an shallow experience but thankfully that's not the case and i am glad to finally experience this amazing gem 2 decades later.
