    It is one of the most unique Metroidvania style games you will ever have the pleasure of playing, and a dream come true to for longtime fans of Castlevania. Those who have the desire and discipline to venture bravely into the world of The Waste Land can consider themselves to be a rare and fortunate breed of gamer.

    While I have a few qualms of my own with the game, I found The Waste Land to be a lot of fun, and look forward to going back to it after having completed my review.

    My final opinion is that it could have used a lot more quality testing.
