This is basically a "tribute" to Castlevania III...and I have to admit it: it's a little bit *better* than Castlevania III.

Making character swapping *instant* instead of taking 5 seconds, is a huge improvement that is satisfying AND adds depth--especially because now you always have 4 characters to choose from at any moment. This system is just *better*.

The music and theming of the levels are really good. They kick off with a moving train level, there's a good library level, and the last level's locust gimmick is friggin' rad. The bosses are cool too, and I usually hate bosses. I do wish they had a health meter.

And turns out, removing the difficulty just makes it way easier to appreciate all of the above goodness. I play through this game once or twice a year, in one sitting, and it's just a great time, all the way through. Castlevania III, I kinda dread playing it.

BEST LEVEL: The pyramid level with the cash money boss. What a great boss. It's so cash money.
