    Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls is a surprising and full-bodied title, characterized by a gameplay that draws on the classic episodes of the Konami series but without the overly synthetic approach often seen in similar productions.

    Grimoire of Souls is a mindless hack and slash title that promises so much, yet delivers so little. The franchise has certainly seen better moments.

Though it has mobile game elements like getting equipment by random summons, it has a lot of levels and characters. There are 6 grimoires (Think of it like worlds in Super Mario Bros but with a lot more levels) and each have a cool boss at the end. You can tell that the developers cared about this game, and it shows. The remixed music is great, the levels call back to old Castlevania games, and the graphics are pretty good for a mobile game. If you hate touch controls, you can even plug a controller into your computer, phone or TV and play it like that. If you have apple arcade, you might as well get this game. Expand
