Well I'd like to start off by saying that this
has got to be one of the best Castlevania games by far! I've never really been a
fan, but I have played a good couple, so I know what to look for. The art style in this game is exceptionally detailed and of a certain anime look. The sound in the game is very nice, It has the
original Castlevania music that we all loved, and it has a Crisp quality. One of
my biggest pet peeves in the game would have to be the lag of the sound quality.
This game has nothing of that sort. The game begins with the main character
Jonathan Morris who is in the belmont family, that doesn't exactly know how to
use his whip. There is also another main character, Charotte Aulin, who is
the...ummmmm...side-kick I guess you could say, that comes in use. It's the year
1944 and a great war has broke loose, the characters find themselves at the feet
of a huge creepy castle owned by the famous Dracula, and his servant. Although
you face Dracula's servant and his two daughters more than you face Dracula,
giving the sense that his servant runs everything. Now I'm not going to get too
into the story, because this is a review, which is mostly about me giving my
opinion and voice on something. Something that I noticed that I found damn
irritating was how when I played this game, even by the slightest tap it would
freeze. Now I don't know if maybe it was just my DS lite or it was the game, but
It was something that I really noticed that I'd advice you to look out for. I
felt that this game had a bit of a high difficulty level. This game sure has a
variety to chose from, and that's another thing I really liked. The ability to
chose many different weapons, items, multiple characters to use, and just
overall extra functionalities.The controls in the game are superb! Although I
would have liked to see more touch screen action like in Dawn of Sorrow, but
that's not the worst thing possible. I do like how the other controls are
integrated though. As if everything has a specific purpose no matter what, in
the neatest way possible. This is a great game that I think will no doubt spawn
a whole new audience!
