Castlevania Aria of Sorrow
SCORE: 65
If you watch our Youtube channel then you
know I have been playing through Castlevania Aria of Sorrow on the
Gameboy Advance again. It has been over a year of working on this game
every other week. Some people have asked me why. We received a
reader/viewer request. We already had the game, and was interested in
the challenge of replaying and getting a review online.
The issues families can have with Castlevania Aria of Sorrow are blood,
violence, lack of attire, enticement to lust, bad language, and more.
The main character we play is supposed to have Dracula’s soul within
him. We also collect the souls of monsters and use them for special
skills, attacks, defenses, and more. The main character does not want to
become Dracula and fights it.
The coolest thing about Castlevania Aria of Sorrow is we can level up
our character. This means grinding is required in certain areas to make
it through. Whenever I had trouble with a boss I went and beat enemies
until I was a high enough level to beat the boss. A certain amount of
skill also helps in finding patterns, avoiding damage, and dishing it
out when there are opportunities.
Castlevania Aria of Sorrow encourages players to explore. As we get new
skills and powers we can access new areas of the castle. Remembering
where everything is can be a bit on the tricky side. So Castlevania Aria
of Sorrow encourages the players to explore around the castle finding
what has now been opened up thanks to the new skills earned.
I had fun playing Castlevania Aria of Sorrow. I also was extremely
frustrated at times. Castlevania Aria of Sorrow made me question my
gamer skills more than once. When you beat Castlevania Aria of Sorrow
then you can play Boss Rush mode, and harder modes.
