If Konami won't give us our Castlevania fix, at least we know its legacy is in bloody good hands! [Issue #34 – July/August 2018, p. 18]
If you miss Castlevania or you can’t wait to play Bloodstained, this is a great choice. A good homage at a good price.

Un juego unico, increible. A pesar de no llevar el nombre, es un Castlevania en toda su ley.

The prospect of playing such a lovingly crafted tribute to the vintage heyday of Konami's seemingly abandoned Castlevania series more than makes up for a few out-of-place boss fights and a slightly too punitive death penalty. Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon delivers a brief but effective burst of nostalgia, and thanks to its many creative modifiers it contains enough replay value to engage (and challenge) anyone who pines for gaming's bygone days.
More than a retro-inspired mini-game, Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon takes influence from the classic Castlevania NES titles and adds many quality-of-life improvements (and a few surprises) to the 8-bit, nostalgia-driven gameplay.
Bloodstained: Curse Of The Moon is undoubtedly aimed at a very specific audience, and you’ll know if you’re part of that just by looking at the screenshots. If those, combined with words such as these, make your heart sing, however, it’s definitely worth your time. It’s like Castlevania just decided to come soaring back into all our lives, and how can that ever be a bad thing? Exactly.
It might not blaze the trail on anything new like a few other recent Inti Creates projects have, but it does exactly what it needs to do, and helps bolster the new legacy of Bloodstained proper before it's even out.
Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon brings back the essence of the 8-bit Castlevania games in a masterful way. Even though it's short and has its frustrating moments, long-time fans of the series will find a lot to love here.
This is an amazing game, a real throwback to older Castlevania titles (especially CV3) but made in a modern way. I enjoyed the soundtrack a lot, too. I like this game better than the main Bloodstained title.

Bloodstained is a very entertaining homage to Castlevania with great replayability. Sometimes I feel like it throws some cheap enemies and stages (something you'd not want to see from a modern platformer) but overall it felt like a very rewarding challenge.
There wasn't much story or dialog but I managed to grow fond of the characters. The visuals could look better but I love the bosses' designs and the soundtrack wasn't the best but pretty memorable nonetheless.
Wouldn't call it a must-play platformer but it's definitely a good investment. Especially if you plan on playing the sequels.

Short, fun 8-bit castlevania-like sidescroller. The different characters add a nice element, and switching between adds some strategy. It didn't wow me, but I enjoyed it and will pick up the second on sale.

I don't get why so many people support idea stealing. This is 1:1 Castlevania and everyone knows that yet no one mentions that. This game doesn't deserve a high rating because this is a 100% RIPOFF. DO NOT SUPPORT PLAGIARISM!
