Everything in Okami just screams Japan, from the graphics all the way to the soundtrack.Creating a game based on a culture and their folklore can be a daunting task. Gaining these symbols is done by completing the constellations of the Celestial Brush gods which are inspired by the animals of the Chinese Zodiac.
