Gameplay

change

Just like the two prevolious games Ico (2001) and Shadow of the Colossus (2005), The Last Guardian takes player to finished the puzzle as Trico (Toriko, Toriko) to solved puzzles and explore the next areas.

The boy can climb on structures, carry objects such as barrels, and operated mechanism such as levers. Trico's size and agility allows it to through ands fight off against guards who attempt to capture that boy.

The player is returned to the last checkpoint if Trico is captured by guards, or if he falls from too great heights.
