In this month's episode of the Ludonarrative Podcast, Blake and Preston spend time unraveling the hauntingly beautiful "Shadow of the Colossus" (2005). This game, designed by Fumito Ueda, adheres to the design principle, "design by subtraction." The game's mechanics come alive, even today, as we anticipate the forthcoming redesigned release for the PS4. Check back with Epilogue this month for more on "Shadow of the Colossus."
