AN AMAZINGLY ATMOSPHERIC GAME THAT IS TOO EASY>> TRY IT WITH NO ARMOR AND WEAPONS FOR A GOOD TIME.
Perhaps the most glaring flaw comes from the games greatest strength, items. The multitude of items in this game makes exploration a fun task, but you end up walking away too over powered. By the time you get to the 2nd castle things get much easier because the main dude, Alucard, is a powerhouse by then. Well, take my advice, do a run without weapons or armor, and using no health items between save points. NOW YOU GOT THE BEST OF CLASSIC GAMEPLY AND MODERN SURREAL CASTLEVANIA.
