"Castlevania: Order of Shadows"
Reviewed

I was excited about this
game, to say the least, and I knew it wouldn’t be near as good as the GBA
or DS Castlevania titles, but I thought it would at least be worth $7.99.
If you want this game after reading this review, you have serious issues.
Story- 3/10.
This is your average CV story. Some cult wants to resurrect Dracula, and
a Belmont has to stop them. That is about it.
Graphics- 3/10
Good graphics for a cell phone game, but they could’ve done better. The
character sprites don’t look like Castlevania.
Sound- 4/10
Again, average cell phone quality. Most, if not all, of the tracks were
from past CV games.
Control- 4/10
It’s easy to control once you get the hang of it, but it takes from 5-10
minutes to get used to. If you are using a num-pad, it would be insanely
difficult.
Gameplay/Challenge- 2/10
This is where the game fails. You can unlock and beat every mode within
an hour after buying the game. If you’re new, you may die 2-5 times throughout
the course of the game on easy mode, 5-7 on hard mode, and you will never
die once you unlock unlimited item mode. The length of this game is also
a complaint. There are 5 bosses, and Dracula has one form. They should’ve
at least let you play as a different character or something. You can reach
level 10 in your exp without even trying. Also, Konami Mobile put in way
to many sub weapons.
Overall- .5/5 Medusa Heads
It looks like Konami Mobile tried to make this game over their 1 hour lunch
break.
