Amazon.com Review:
One of the best side-scrolling game franchises makes a successful debut on the Game Boy Advance in Castlevania: Circle of the Moon. This time around you follow the adventures of Nathan Graves as he attempts to stop the recently resurrected Dracula. In the fine tradition of Castlevania vampire hunters, Graves carries a whip as his primary weapon, and will soon discover the traditional secondary weapons of holy water, dagger, boomerang, time freeze, and more. New to the series is the dual set-up system (DSS), which allows you to use 20 cards (randomly found) for up to 80 power-ups.
The game plays like a side-scrolling classic without seeming too dated. Players traipse around a nonlinear dungeon, defeat monsters, and unlock new parts of the dungeon, often through the use of new abilities. It's similar to the excellent Castlevania: Symphony of the Night for the PlayStation, with the obvious aural limitations of a cartridge-based handheld system.
Unfortunately, the game's dark graphics are difficult to see on the Game Boy Advance's fickle screen. Long sessions require consistent overhead lighting, so this isn't the ideal game for travel. The animations are also lacking, making character movement appear jerky. Despite these graphics shortcomings, this side-scrolling wonder makes a fine addition to your GBA library. --Raymond M. Padilla
Pros: - Classic gameplay
- High replay value
- Great sound for a handheld game
Cons: - Dark graphics are butchered by the GBA screen
- Mediocre animation
Amazon.com Product Description:
Konami's Simon Belmont started hunting vampires back in 1987, and he hasn't quit yet. Now he's chasing them across the Game Boy Advance in Castlevania: Circle of the Moon. He'll use his trusty whip, as well as a few magical items, to combat Dracula and more than just a few foul minions. The game takes advantage of the GBA's rich color palette to create detailed, moody environments and intricate spell effects.

Castlevania: Circle of the Moon is one of the most challanging, yet fair games I have ever played. I've played many games where it was challanging sure, but only because your enemy used cheap moves or was insanely powerful in comparison to the enemies you fought to get to them. Not in this game. Castlevania: CotM maintains a constant level of difficulty while remaining fun and rewarding. You aren't completely reliant on levelling up throughout the game (though it certainly helps) as a good ... Read More

I like the Castlevania series, so I have no complaints about this game. Controls are good, and it sticks to the tried and true platform genre.

First of all, yes this game is infamous for it's darker-than-any-other-GBA graphics. It is probably highly recommended that you play this game on a backlit GBA, the Gameboy Player or the DS. This is why I gave it the overall 4 star rating.
Now for the actual game itself. After the great but overlooked Symphony of the Night (due to the fact that Sony and everybody else, which is the audience, wanting 3D games), known for it's gameplay and amazing 2D graphics, fans wanted more so when ... Read More

This game is just plain old fun. Its very challenging, unlike most other new Castlevania games, and really gets you into the adventure.
The special items you can obtain all make the game more interesting and the magic and card system just plain rocks.
You can change your whip into fire/ice whips, get magical swords and even summon a dozen monsters to help you.
The card system is what really makes this game shine.
Pick this game up if you really want a fun and ... Read More

I reccomend this game to good thinkers and people who like strategy games and long action-fantasy games. I first had trouble with this game but then it became easier to play though some bosses are hard.(use Holy Water when facing the IRON GOLEM)I liked the story, and its better to use a GameBoyAdvanceSP or a regular GameBoyAdvance with a light to catch the good graphics.Its very hard to get all the dss cards(unicorn and black dog are gotten in the battle arena).To defeat Draculas second formI reccomend ...
