Hector is out for revenge, and he'll have to grind through corridor after corridor filled with the same old monsters to exact it.īy clicking 'enter', you agree to GameSpot's Curse of Darkness includes a lot of the building blocks that could have made for a great 3D Castlevania game, but it's noticeably missing some key ingredients-namely, variety and challenge. The gameplay boils down to hours upon hours of running through corridors and killing the same monsters over and over.which isn't necessarily as boring as it sounds, but it's not exactly a thrill ride, either.
However, the variety you'll see in the game's gothic environments is purely superficial. Like 2003's Lament of Innocence, Curse of Darkness attempts to preserve the look and feel of the classic 2D side-scrolling Castlevania installments, and succeeds to a certain extent the game's got a solid combat system and some interesting new spins on the formula that give some depth to the action. While the long-running Castlevania series continues to thrive on Nintendo's portable gaming systems, it's still having problems coming into its own on consoles, if the new Castlevania: Curse of Darkness is any indication.
