The
year is 1830. In an ancient castle on the outskirts of the
Austrian empire a demon lord that would unite the powers of
darkness begins to resurrect from his banishment...
Castlevania
is one of the first games to be available for the Game Boy
Advance (GBA). This platform game is bound to be compared
to Legend of Dragoon. And as an early game for the
GBA it shows what the future holds for mobile gamers.
Ok,
so the graphics are not as spectacular as some would hope
for, but then it's not looks we are after here. Nah! Good
olde fashioned game play is the name of the game and there
is plenty of it.
You
play Nathan Grave in his quest to hunt and destory that well
known vampire Dracula. Yeah, I know. Not exactly an original
plot but it works well. And who cares who the end baddie is?
It's getting through the levels that we really care about.
Fans
of Final Fantasy will lap this up! Those that hate
this style of game should steer clear - pretty obvious really.
