Castlevania: Circle of the Moon

The Good
Fun gameplay like the other two GBA Castlevanias. The DSS system is pretty cool, even if you likely won't use or even see all of them unless you grind. DSS gives variety to your attacks even though you are often restricted to the classic whip plus special attacks.

The Bad
The movement is a lot more stiff than Aria and Harmony. Which is not the worst, but I ended up playing Circle last of the trio and I hated the lack of movement tech like a backdash. Of course this is from someone who sucks at these sorts of games, but I personally hate just how annoying it is to grind items and just how rare and scarce they are.

The Bottom Line
Not as good as the other two, however it is still fun and also unique in its own way and completely worth playing.
