Comment on So you want to start playing Castlevania games (a giant primer)
jericho_cross@lemmy.zip 3 weeks agoThank you for highlighting those two. I know there are differences between all the handheld games but I’d already rambled on so much about the other games I didn’t want to start splitting hairs on the differences between a bunch of games that are all worth playing. Also, I legitimately can’t remember which one is which. So this really helps!

The Sorrows games are so good. One neat thing, too, was that you could pop the GBA game into a DS that had a bottom slot, along with having the DS game in at the same time to unlock a few goodies in the DS game.
These games had you acquiring the souls of defeated enemies to gain their abilities. What this allowed you to do, how it allowed you to traverse the world, was what set the games apart. There have even been modded versions of the games that I’ve seen that add additional difficulty and fun!
