This guide to The Last Guardian includes a comprehensive walkthrough for the game. In this walkthrough, you can find key information and hints on, among others, exploration of the game world, solving puzzles, issuing commands to Trico and on eliminating of opponents. (what makes this difficult is that the boy the player controls is completely defenseless and has to rely entirely on his companion). The walkthrough also contains locations of the barrels (they are marked in green in the guide). You will be helped to overcome obstacles by plentiful screenshots, which have been marked for locations connected with puzzles, passages to further locations and important items that you either have to pick up or interact with.. This has been complemented with pages that present controls, system requirements and available trophies.
The Last Guardian is the result of year-long works of the studio headed by Fumito Ueda, which has already made the name for itself with Ico and Shadow of the Colossus. It is a third-person perspective action game including elements of a platform game. In The Last Guardian, control a young boy and explore ancient ruins which hold many secrets and puzzles. The major attraction of the game is the boy's companion - Trico. Trico is a huge creature, resembling a combination of a dog and an eagle, who can help the boy reach spots inaccessible to him and eliminate hostile creatures. As the game progresses, the bond between the boy and Trico becomes stronger and stronger, which results in new ways to interact with the creature.
