About this product

Product Information

Eike Kusch has been murdered in a violent fashion at the hands of an unknown assailant. Kusch must now solve the riddles behind his own demise.<br><br>The murder victim awakes in darkness after the brutal assault, encountering an ominous being known as Homunculus. Homunculus explains that Eike has been murdered and grants him another chance at life...for a small price. The unknown creature bestows upon him a Digipad. Using this device, Eike must travel back in time to alter his tragic end and prevent the killer from murdering other people.<br><br>After the encounter with Homunculus, Eike Kusch comes to in a familiar coffee shop, a mere half-hour before his death. To prevent his murder, he must switch between the past and present and do whatever it takes to remove himself from the black shadow of his own destiny.<br><br>With an ominous, dark atmosphere and theme, Shadow of Destiny is the first adventure game to hit the PlayStation 2; it was designed by Junko Kawano, the mastermind behind Silent Hill. In this third-person adventure, one must control the doomed Eike Kusch while solving riddles and puzzles within various time frames. Failure to prevent his death with in this time frame will result in Eike's demise; he is then resurrected and receives hints from Homunculus on avoiding his repeated fate.<br><br>The action takes place through ten chapters; there are eight main chapters, a prologue, and an epilogue. In each of these chapters, the main character dies in various ways, such as being stabbed in the back or getting run over by a car. To make progress and complete each chapter, the hero will have to talk with various townsfolk in various European eras, gather information, collect items, and solve puzzles, rather than killing traditional monsters or enemies.<br><br>Time periods include a present time setting, medieval times, and various decades from the 21st century. Each time period has a unique color scheme. While Eike can travel to whenever and wherever he wishes, there are times when he will be transported to another time against his will. Time progresses in each period in a simultaneous fashion. You will be informed as to when the murder is to take place -- when the clock reaches this time, rest assured he will be killed. When there is a limited amount of time remaining before he is killed, the Climax Crisis System kicks in; doing certain things will prevent his demise in this mode.<br><br>Through the solving of puzzles in previous time periods, structures and other things will change in the present time. In order to travel in time to collect information and items, he must seek out units of energy that fuel the Digipad, for without these cells he cannot use the device. Along the way, he will meet an assortment of characters including Margarete Wagner, Eckart Brum, and a waitress named Dana. Whenever a puzzle is solved or someone offers insight to a particular event, the information is jotted in a notebook that can be accessed at any time.<br><br>When one prevents all of Eike Kusch's death scenarios, the game is over, but there is much more waiting to be unraveled. Shadow of Destiny features five different endings. Depending on how much of each chapter you've completed and the manner in which the game was completed, one of these endings will be awarded at the end. You will also receive various percentages at the end of the game that show how much of each chapter was completed.

    Beautiful. A Hidden Gem.

    I had played through this and it is just amazing. <3 I can't even convey how awesome it is. In the beginning you think "Oh, average PS2 game" But then as the story goes on, you just get so wrapped up in it. I adore this game so very much, I'm so happy I bought a copy to always have on my shelf incase I want to play again, as there are MANY different endings. The whole story actually isn't told UNTIL you beat all the endings too, which is really nifty. I just love it.

  • Great Game If You Like To Explore

    Shadow of Destiny is a great game if you like to explore, now keep in mind this is not a Run-n-Gun or action game. It's basically about exploring the mystery and life of the main character through time travel and preventing his death. Graphics- The game looked great for its time, considering that it was released in 2001, The atmosphere is great and basically revolves around a small town of Lebensbaum. Sound & Music- Games sounds are pretty accurate, the music does go with every scene but it's nothing special it does bring each time frame to life and makes you feel like your in it. The voice acting is great and is very fitting to the characters involved, though some characters sound annoying. Controls- The controls are very simple and makes it easy for anyone of any age to play, ...

  • Still as entertaining as it was 10 years ago.

    Shadow of Destiny is a first generation RPG game for the PS2 Console. If you loved reading choose your own adventure books as a kid you'll love playing Shadow of Destiny. There are multiple endings, and choices that can lead to your death, other people's death, or saving lives. I hadn't played all possible realities of the game story. This is a game you can play for weeks trying to travel down all possibilities. With the ability to save at the end of each chapter you can load prior to a critical choice, and play out the path you hadn't chosen. Avoiding having to start at the very beginning of the game. The graphics and sound is incredible for a first generation PS2 game. Although, remember to change your TV's aspect ratio to 4:3 if playing on a PS2 console. The game and PS2 ...

  • For Mystery Fans Only

    This game was fun, for a little while. It has a great story with multiple endings, all of which you are caused by your actions throughout the game. You solve some puzzles and mysteries though this game, and at the end, you probably will feel like playing through a couple more times to see another ending or two. But it does not take long to finish the story all the way through. Plus, there really is no gameplay. Your responsibility is basically to move your character from one event to the next. If your an action game fan, this game will most likely bore you. As for the graphics, sound quality, etc., they are beautiful, considering the time of release. Now, all this makes it had to give it an overall rating. It really depends on what you are looking for. So, I give it an average rating. It ...

  • THIS IS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE GAME EVER!!!!

    This game came out while the Playstation 2 was still new and expanding its catalog of titles. This is certainly one of the gems that came in under the radar and went unrecognized by the majority of gamers. It is a great game though. The basic premise is that you have a device that can take you back in time in order to prevent your own murder. You go back to several different time periods to unlock the mysteries of the past to solve the puzzles of the future and hopefully change your ill-fated destiny. Changing the past in the slightest of ways though can change everything though and not always for the better. This is such a cinematic game. It really is a lot more like an intereactive movie or one of those choose-your-own-ending books more so than just an out right video game. The ...
