Perky Goth Jen and her gargoyle companion Scree battle through four elemental realms to restore balance between Order and Chaos. Along the way Jen gains the ability to transform into four demonic forms. Pretty Tropetastic for a single game not in an already established universe.A British counterpart to ICO, Primal is as much or more about experiencing the game's universe and interaction between characters as it is about gameplay. Sometimes it's like a luxuriously animated old-school text adventure. In contrast to ICO's minimalist approach, Primal spared no expense in its presentation production values. Motion capture, BAFTA nominated soundtrack, machine band combat soundtrack, lavish object and character models, luxurious textures, top-quality voice acting, richly imagined worlds, cultures and races, realistic characters with sometimes extravagant amounts of dialog.Developed by SCEE Cambridge, the development team responsible for MediEvil and MediEvil 2, Primal (2003) is a PS2 exclusive. It is a single player, two character action/adventure game focusing on Jen, a mortal girl attacked when leaving a nightclub with her boyfriend Lewis, singer in the club's band.The attack leaves Jen and Lewis unconscious in a hospital. A short, dark figure approaches Jen's bed and raises her spirit up out of her body. The figure reveals itself to be a small stone gargoyle named Scree. Scree explains that Jen's body is close to death and she must come with him to the Nexus.The player can control either Jen or Scree, an animated stone gargoyle, as they travel through four fantastic realms to restore the balance between Order, represented by Lady Arella, and Chaos, represented by Abaddon.It has been released as a PS2 Classic on the PlayStation Network, then again as part of the PlayStation 4's PS2 games lineup with trophy support.Not to be confused with the Genndy Tartakovsky series, Primal (2019), or the 2019 Nicolas Cage film Primal.

Fact number one- and top fact on the list- I'm still alive. Agreed? Good. Fact number two... you're still here to take care of me! Thank goodness for facts."

All There in the Manual
 Primal (Video Game) / int_17ce80aa
comment
The game manual states that Jen’s health as a human is her connection to the spirit world, which means that if she runs out of health, she gets kicked out of the spirit world and back into her physical body (which, as it is established at the beginning of the game, is comatose and near death). If that happens, the rift gates will open, and you, as Scree, have to get to one to bring Jen back. Just like the Aino mission, there is no visible clock, but you still have to move it, or risk a Game Over. (This only applies if you're not in a boss battle. Run out of health in a boss battle, Jen dies, period.)

Nigh-Invulnerability
 Primal (Video Game) / int_1f7c89f6
comment
Nigh-Invulnerability: Scree, in most cases. However, this is averted if he's possessing a statue and fighting. Also, although he has no visible health bar himself (his bar shows his "tank" of reserve demon energy) there are a couple places in Volca where Scree can die (the first is while he's transporting weights to a pressure plate to rescue Jen from the corrupted Djinn form if he gets hit by enough falling/exploding volcanic rocks. The second is if, while he's going to possess a statue to fight Jen in said corrupted Djinn form, he gets hit enough times by corrupted Djinn Jen). Either of these things causes a Game Over.

Regenerating Health: But only under two circumstances. The first is when Jen is in human form and not in combat. The second is when she is in Undine form and in clean water. (Most of the water in Aquis is polluted, bar the opening lagoon. Jen doesn't lose health from being in polluted water, but she also doesn't automatically regenerate it.)

Captain Ersatz: Evil Count in a castle what could easily pass for the Carpathian mountains. Gains invulnerability, and perhaps immortality, by feeding off of the blood of poor villagers. Lampshaded by Jen's "I guess the ol' 'fangs in the neck' trick went out of fashion" when she sees the Blood Machine.

Easter Egg
 Primal (Video Game) / int_29a39f6
comment
Easter Egg Walk up to the fire in the Hunt Camp after talking with the Shaman in a cutscene for an optional cutscene. Have Jen chat several times with Scree immediately after a return to the Nexus. When Jen gains the Wraith form, the grave stone she smashes says "RIP Laura Cruft", a (misspelled) Shout-Out to Tomb Raider's Lara Croft. Which can be seen as either Hilarious in Hindsight or not, considering that the then upcoming Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness bombed.

Jen returns to her body in Mortalis, but will never see Abdizur again. Jen is later seen visiting Lewis in the hospital, but he's still in a coma and it's never revealed if he wakes up or not.

"Iblis" is the Islamic name for Satan (and indeed is classified as a djinn in the theology of Islam), in case you needed any hints that King Iblis was a bad guy. Satan is also The Great Deceiver; King Iblis first appears in disguise, manipulating the protagonists and later tries to corrupt Jen, the messianic champion of Order.

Transformation Sequence: Whenever Jen transforms into one of her demon forms, which will obviously happen very often. Unfortunately, they're rather longer than needed. They can serve a practical purpose too; switching forms in the middle of a fight will knock back adjacent enemies, giving the player a moment to strike back and gain the upper hand.

Timed Mission
 Primal (Video Game) / int_bb48f8ba
comment
Timed Mission: Shortly after you enter Aquis (the Under the Sea level) and get the "Undine" (fish-like creature) form, Queen Aino is raised out of the water. You have to turn two valves on the other end of the lake to get her back into the water. There's no visible clock, just her increasingly desperate cries of "Help me!" every minute or so, and if you don't rescue her, she will eventually die... and so will Jen. The game manual states that Jen’s health as a human is her connection to the spirit world, which means that if she runs out of health, she gets kicked out of the spirit world and back into her physical body (which, as it is established at the beginning of the game, is comatose and near death). If that happens, the rift gates will open, and you, as Scree, have to get to one to bring Jen back. Just like the Aino mission, there is no visible clock, but you still have to move it, or risk a Game Over. (This only applies if you're not in a boss battle. Run out of health in a boss battle, Jen dies, period.)

1-Up: Life Gems for Jen automatically refill her demon energy to full should she ever run out. This is only available to her when she is in one of her demon forms, however. Her human form also acts as an extra life if she runs out of demon energy, but it can't use Life Gems. What this means is that if she runs out of health as a human, it triggers either a Timed Mission for Scree to bring her back, or, if it happens during a boss fight, an instant Game Over.

Shout-Out The opening cutscene is just like the first person travel scenes by the angels in The Prophecy (1995). The Terminator - The opening scene of a killer stalking through the dance floor of a nightclub. Star Wars: "Aren't you a little short for the Grim Reaper?" The Tauntauns from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back make an appearance in Solum. The Queen even rides one. Tomb Raider Jen has a "look" mode, where she moves her head around and the camera follows, much like Lara Croft's "look" mode in the series. Screen does a forward handstand/legover to move from climbing down a wall to the ground. Lara Croft has a similar special move when climbing over a ledge.

Heartbeat Soundtrack: If you have to rescue Jen after she gets kicked from the spirit world due to running out of health. At first, it's only heartbeats, which slow down over time (the controller also vibrates in time to the heartbeats); a dramatic strings-based track kicks in after about two minutes. The only other indication of your remaining time is a single verbal warning from Arella.

Adventures in Comaland
 Primal (Video Game) / int_d5f35258
comment
Adventures in Comaland: A possible interpretation of the events of the game; the opening provides plenty of evidence of subconcious projections. The club is called Nexus, the nearby church has gargoyles that exactly resemble Scree, the symbology of her tattoo is everywhere, and the tattoo might of been important to her and Lewis as they had matching tattoos; they are heavy into the metal scene, which may explain some of the fantasy characters, and it is implied that while Jen wants to be orderly, settled and stable, Lewis seems more into the chaotic rockstar lifstyle. And the monster that attacked them? Probably just a (very big and strong) looney fan of Lewis and his band, or a member of a gang Lewis fell afoul of, and the fact that nobody in the club actually reacted to the obviously inhuman creature (the trench and flatcap did little to disguse him).

Jiggle Physics: Jen, a B-cup at best, has a slight wavy motion on her cleavage when she runs. More of a graphical distortion than actual physics model. When Jen transforms to/from a beast form, she rises into the air, tilts back, and the camera centers on her torso as she vibrates up and down.

Walk It Off: In human form Jen regenerates health when not in combat. Fighting in human form also saves Life Gems, which are automatically used when Jen runs out of energy in beast form. So there's a double reason to fight in human form as much as possible.

Shown Their Work: Take a look around the Wiki. Many characters and their names have meaning or relate to some other works in the world. An example would be Queen Aino's namesake, from a Finnish poem about a girl who drowns herself rather than be married to an old man. Aino is introduced by "drowning" herself with air (She's from the underwater realm) as a sacrifice. "Iblis" is the Islamic name for Satan (and indeed is classified as a djinn in the theology of Islam), in case you needed any hints that King Iblis was a bad guy. Satan is also The Great Deceiver; King Iblis first appears in disguise, manipulating the protagonists and later tries to corrupt Jen, the messianic champion of Order.
