Though the game shares many stylistic, aesthetic, and atmospheric elements with Ico, Shadow of the Colossus's core gameplay is quite different. The game focuses on a young man, known only to the audience as Wander (or "the Wanderer"), who is tasked with finding and killing sixteen colossi that reside in a desolate expanse of land, in the hopes of resurrecting a sacrificed girl named Mono.
