For an instance, if you want the creature to move in a specific direction then throw a barrel in that direction, this will gain creatures interest and your job is will done. Using the animal instincts is not the only use of the creature sometime in game players should find a way to make the creature silent and stand still while he completes the game.

Game designers are planning to make the interaction between the boy and the animal to be more real. A full physical engine is used as the game engine in the game. This is a new feature and not seen in the previous games of Team Ico.

By the way its long time ahead, but from the details The Last Guardian is looking interesting and it may be a gift to the players who love puzzle settings.
