In this game the player never actually equips a weapon--rather "Glyphs" are collected and used for a wide variety of uses.There are standand glyphs and also more advanced versions of the same glyph can be found later in the game.Three of these can be equiped at one time for a diverse combinations.
The Order of Ecclesia itself is something of an enigma. More is learned about as the game progresses.The storyline is not the best of the Castlevania series but it does hold its own.After a rather abrupt beginning the main character, a woman who has very little memory, goes off in search of the 3 pieces of "Dominus". All 3 pieces must be found and brought back ti the Order.
The game play itself is great and new areas can be found by completing previous ones.Some areas have more than one exits so they will have to be explored a number of times.They are plenty of bonus items to be found(rings, armor, food....)thus enhancing the fflow of the game.There are also numerous warp and save points in the game.Be sure to find them all!
The character movement is smooth and fluid as are the enemies.Multiple endings are also in the game.
If you own a DS and are looking for a well rounded game, Order of Ecclesia, (or even its' predicessor "Portrait of Ruin")is it!
