Well this game was by far better than the original "Castlevania 64" better graphics, characters looks better, story was great, two new characters to complete the story, and was a good game, but this game was quite easy, yeah there are some parts of the game that appears to be hard or at least you have to be careful not to fall in the gears of the castle keep, or being careful not to jump or get hit while carrying the magical intro in the castle center, another example is helping Henry or following Mali's to get out of the maze while fleeing from a couple of dogs and a man with a chainsaw instead of his hand, the bad stuff about the game is that it was way too short compared to other castlevanias game series, also it has the classic most loyalt and trustful servant of Dracula, Death, you fight against it almost at the end of the game as usual of the castlevania series.

I would recommend this game to every castlevania fan, but i wouldn't labeled it as the best castlevania game.
