Create a new game plot using the name of an existing one.

[jonpaze]

The rules are simple. Take an existing video game name and make a little plot summary based on the name only and not the game.

I'll start: Shadow of the Colossus - Your home village and its farms are under the shadow of an giant colossus sleeping and it's causing eternal night and your farms won't grow anymore. You are the only one who can wake up the colossus and shoo him away!

Captcha: power tool
That'll wake him right up!
