Trapping enemies couldn't be more fun!

I bought this game after playing the second game (Deception 2) and I was glad I did. At first you may think this kind of gameplay is one of the weirdest one, but later on you will get hooked by it. What you need to do is trap any unwanted visitor who comes into your castle. Later on, you can summon some kind of demons and make important choices. Trapping enemies or killing them has an impact on you too.

To summarize all, this game gets addictive. The sound is alright but it could have been better. The graphics are descent, specially for a 1996 game. The story line is weird and evil, guess what choices you have to make?

One more thing before completing this small review, the game takes about 9 blocks to save so you better have a spare memory card in handy. Also, there are like 4 endings if I remember correctly.
