i'd recommend this game to anyone who enjoys sidescrollers such as castlevania however this game is MUCH harder and about as long as a classic castlevania game. The game encourages the player to be cautious explore and do multiple playthoughs. The more you explore the more you can scavenge for weapons, temporary power ups and material for permanent power ups or perks. You can choose to go back home to bank your materials but you'll have to start from the first stage but if you choose to go on and you die.. you'll only come back with a fraction of the material you've collected so choose carefully. If you want to complete the game you'll have to get strong enough to complete the game in 1 run!

My biggest complaint about this game is that there is very little explanation of the mechanics. Raising your weapon rank is easy enough but they dont explain that you can add skills and perks to your weapons . The skills are not automatically applied even if they're unlocked either! you'll have to activate them at a zombie geisha by using a purple soul. The soul devour system also gives the player temporary playthrough power ups that is activated by pressing the right control stick on an Xbox controller.
