Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance
Aug. 28th, 2011 08:09 pmJuste Belmont, grandson of Simon, has a problem: His jealous buddy Maxim has been gathering parts of Dracula and has some sort of evil split personality/amnesia thing going on. On top of that, their friend Lydia's been kidnapped and taken to a giant evil castle. Fortunately, Juste's got a magic whip and far better jumping skills than granddad, so he's all set to tackle legions of monsters and the inevitable return of Dracula.
( I'm pretty sure I had played part of this years ago, but it was in the Castlevania Double Pack cart I got for Aria of Sorrow last year, so I figured I'd run through it all the way. )
Overall: Not the best Castlevania game, but a solid effort. For reference, I liked the two Sorrow games the best, and I would put this in the second tier with Portrait of Ruin and Circle of the Moon. Order of Ecclesia was just too dang hard, and I'm much less enamoured with the 3D offerings in general.
