    A solid port of one of the greatest games ever made.

    While there are some improvements that can be made here, particularly with regards to features like iCloud support and control placement options, it’s really hard to think of many compelling reasons why a person shouldn’t buy Castlevania: Symphony of the Night for their mobile device. It’s three measly dollars for a solid port of one of the finest games of all-time, one that even allows you to use a controller if you really can’t get on with the manageable virtual buttons. I really hope this isn’t just a one-off for Konami as I’d love to see more of the Castlevania games or the company’s PlayStation library make the jump, but we all know how this usually goes. For now, let’s just enjoy what we’ve got here: a wonderful pile of secrets.

    Castlevania: Symphony of the Night aged perfectly and it's still a blast in this mobile version, thanks to a new checkpoint system that renders the experience less frustrating in case of game over.

    Symphony of the Night is a timeless masterpiece. Both those who loved it madly and the curious inevitably destined to fall in love with it should look with interest at this mobile port.

    Amazing game. The controls do bring it down a bit as well as lack of tutorials for certain items though.
