Well, with the infamous big zombie dragons gubbed, I reckoned it’s time to do some levelling, card, upgrade and potion collecting. So, equipped with all luck gear I’ve gone on a murderous rampage throughout the areas explored thus far, wreaking a horrible vengeance on all the things that gave me trouble in the past. I’ve

Zombie Dragons Zombiefied! In the end, they’re pretty easy if you use your noodle and have a bit of patience. Basically, if you stand on the platform above the left hand dragon, none of the attacks except the rock shower from above can hit you. If you then set up your DSS to be Diana

Hardest Castlevania ever. So, I’ve got the fourth boss in the game – a nasty two headed Zombie dragon. Except there’s two of them :-/ They’re also very big and busy. So, I puttered in there at level 27 with no potions and died. So I tried again, and died. Then I decided that what

Nyeargh! I never realised how much I must have depended on potions and mind-ups from the shop in later Castlevania games. With the absence of a shop, Circle of the Moon is rock hard. Added to that, there’s no renewal of health after defeating a boss, so the limp back to the nearest save point

Where was I? Oh yeah, I was stuck in the fiendishly annoying Machine Tower. Or I was until I remembered I could whirl the whip around by holding the attack button. I also discovered an incredibly handy save point right at the top, too – one would almost think Castlevania games were designed by real

Oh yes indeedy – it is c0mpl3t0rat0red! I can’t really say much about the ending without giving spoilers, but I will say that this is one of the best and more entertaining RPGs I’ve played. Sure, it’s a little (lot) on the easy side, but it’s funny and clever and never gets dull. The closing

There’s no doubt at all in my mind that deKay is going to love this game. I have just, while crossing a bridge, been accosted by a dancing fruit which ran up to me, yelled “A-splode!” and ran off while a huge explosion rocked the screen. Moments later, a gang of around thirty dancing fruits

At last! I’m on the fabled Nova, planet of Light, in the heart of the sun where, any day now, a giant worm is going to eat the sun and give birth to a new one. Or something. That’s if the rampaging hordes of carnivorous robots don’t destroy the universe first. Or the pirates. Or

At exactly 19 hours and 58 minutes into the game, a father and daughter were reunited at last and the final Millenium Gummy was all mine. So, without further ado, it’s back to Razen to see the dwarf engineers. It appears that they need to make my ship a bit more ethereal because I need

Earth Gummy GET! After a pretty long battle and a very poignant scene (in FMV no less) with the Stone Giant – accompanied by a rather awesome bit of synthy guitar soloing) the gummy is mine. I’ve now been summoned back to Puffoon, conveniently enough, where the final gummy awaits. This game is really strange
