User Rating: 9.7 | Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow DS

By MarioRPGer | Review Date: November 30, 2005

Gameplay-Never before have I played a game with such fluid control.With the tap of a button(or two)yopu will be swinging your weapon or spell in no time.The touch screen can be extremely cumbersome but once you get it down, the touch screen is a great use for drawing seals to rid bosses and clearing magic chrystals out of the way.Fluidity with the face buttons is a plus though.

Graphics-These 2-D graphics are amazing.Nuff said.

Sound-This game has the most excellent score for a handheld I have ever come across and combine this with some awesome monster grunts and sword slashes,and youll have your DS turned all the way up faster than you can say "Mario rules".

Value-This should be an excellent game for fans and newbies alike.If you love 2-D platformers or dungeon crawlers GET THIS GAME.

Post me if you think Zelda twighlight princess is taking way too long!!!
