Castlevania: Circle of the Moon
Castlevania: Circle of the Moon for GameBoy Advance has a lot of the same qualities that made Symphony of the Night such a great game. The game really only has two problems, one being that the whole game is extremely dark and you need to be under a bright light to see it and the second is that if you are familiar with SOTN you should be able to brezze through this game in about eigth hours.
Much like SOTN you find items and armor as well as special items that give you new abilities. You only have one weapon; a whip but it is a good weapon. As for magic the system is based on card that you find by defeating certain enemys. You get powers that allow you to do things such as make you whip a fire whip or summon powerful creatures.
Dracula's castle is just as big as it always is and there are plenty of secrets to be found that usually lead to HP, MP, and Heart power ups. Altogether you get the same experiance you got with SOTN except this time you play as a Vampire Hunter. Cirlce of the Moon is a must own game for the Advance and I give it a 8 out of 10.
