Not to be missed.
-
This is exactly what I'm looking for in a 32-bit Castlevania game: great graphics and animation, plenty of way-cool Bosses and tight 2D gameplay.
-
GMR MagazineA certifiable classic. [Feb 2003, p.97]
-
The music is brilliant too - sometimes daunting, sometimes rousing and always doing what music should - enhancing the action.
-
It's tremendous fun and very addicting, despite the uninteresting plot and the bad acting. I only wish it were larger because I enjoyed it so much.
