This was an overall enjoyable experience for me.

2D Castlevania always a winner.
While PoR isn't as great as its predecessor, Dawn of Sorrow, it more than holds its own in the long line of great Castlevanie games. Konami can do no wrong with their Metroidvania formula. PoR is a solid game with good... Read Full Review

Best Castlevania since Circle of the Moon
Castlevania celebrates its 20th anniversary by releasing Portrait of Ruin and it does not disappoint in any way. The game is awesome from the second you turn it on. The main menu alone looks really cool. The game's gr... Read Full Review

This game was great, however, it seemed a bit dry without the soul collection that Dawn of Souls had.
I sincerely enjoyed playing this game, however, Dawn of Souls was a better game. For sure, get them both, however. They both had amazing content, as well as a vast area to explore. The developers did a great job with the... Read Full Review

No touch gimmicks - Still great
while there are two characters to control, Portrait of Ruin brings back the classic gameplay of the series. You'll have to learn the strengths and weaknesses of your team, and that adds to the depth of the title. When... Read Full Review
