Otokomizu
Nintendo Switch Ι Genre: I’m playing in the rain
Japan is not only the land of manga, sushi, and wabi-sabi aesthetic, it is also the place where the weirdest things come to life. Everyone has tried at least once in life its extremely refined cuisine, and if you still haven’t read Genji Monogatari, which is not only a great book but also the world’s first novel ever appeared, you must batten down the hatches. But this is only the surface, if you scratch it you’ll unveil a bizarre sense of humor that covers all the fields of this wonderful country. Takeshi’s Castle, square watermelons, Nai Sumo Baby Crying Festival or Engrish language are only a few examples of what you can find once you’re there, but there’s more!
Especially in video games, we can see clearly the highest points of weirdness. Titles like Hatoful Boyfriend, Mister Mosquito, Seaman, and Toilet Kids are the perfect examples of what you can find in the Land of the Rising Sun. If you think you know what weird means…well, think again; because the one and only Otokomizu is finally available for Nintendo Switch!
As you maybe already know, in ancient times Edo was built totally by wood; due to this, fires were a daily matter. Chronicles record that in 1657, the Great fire of Meireki destroyed more than 70% of the city in only one day. Firefighters did their best to keep it under control, but frankly speaking, the technology of the time doesn’t allow to extinguish huge fires quickly.
But from today the inhabitants of Edo have nothing to worry about because you’re the only one who can summon the guardian deity known as Otokomizu, and control him to shoot around incredibly powerful jets of water. Look, up in the sky, it’s him!
Featuring a big 3D open-Edo, never seen before gameplay mechanics, and pure kitsch value; Otokomizu for Nintendo Switch is truly something completely different from any other (N)indie title you’ve played so far.
As supreme god of the rain, you can take the rain everywhere it is needed, and above all a mighty beautiful body; thanks to these characteristics you can gain a lot of faithful worshippers who just want to be like you…the ultimate most heavenly powerful deity of all time!
Fly high over Edo City shaking your muscles to defeat the fire bringers, do it creating looooooong combos using 1000% tons punches, high-pressure water, and whatever you can think of, after all, you’re a god in loincloths.
If you have a burning desire for something unconventional; Otokomizu for Nintendo Switch is the best way to put out it. The rain is strong with you, and only with your superpowers, you can save the future capital city of Japan. With a JoyCon in one hand and a jar of cream for bodybuilding in the other; you shouldn’t miss trying one of the most bizarrely appealing video games of this last quarter of the year.
Providing an outstanding action experience, approach Otokomizu for NS without prejudice; you’ll find a little digital-only masterpiece that will always keep your interest on high levels.
Laugh at clouds, and give a warm welcome to the one and only rain god
