This is my favorite metroidvania Castlevania game. Expectations from Aria of Sorrow for me were quite high. I finally gotten to play this through Castlevania Dominus Collection. In nearly every possible way better than Aria of Sorrow. Sure the money trick technically better in Aria of Sorrow. You also need to correctly perform the seals or a boss regains some health during boss fights. Despite those problems it's a truly fantastic Castlevania game. Once again you play as Soma Cruz with amazing presentation for the story. A great lineup for the bosses as well. You get one massive map with a smaller map later on. You get a few merchants this time around. Your usual merchant being Hammer. One of the supporting characters, Yoko Belnades whose an descendant of Sypha Belnades deals with souls. Either free em or use souls to improve weapons. Plus you can find the right combination of souls for truly amazing effects. Dawn of Sorrow is currently the end of the classic Castlevania timeline. I felt it was a worthy conclusion. The audio as a whole truly fantastic work. This felt like an improved Aria of Sorrow that's differs enough to be it's own Castlevania game. In other words it's not quickly release the same game but change some stuff that's it. There's an insane level of depth. Julius Mode is even improved to a degree. You can recruit both Alucard whose not in disguise and Yoko. This recreates three of the four Castlevania 3 characters together. Boss Rush mode is a lot of fun as well. I really can not criticize it much because the game just that damn great!!!

Lost OdysseyLost Odyssey is set in a world in which a "Magic-Industrial Revolution" is taking place. While magic energy existed in all living creatures beforehand, it suddenly became far more powerful thirty years before the beginning of the game. Because of this, it has affected society greatly, with devices called "Magic Engines" harnessing this power for lighting, automobiles, communication, and robots, among other uses. While previously only a select few could wield magic, many magicians gained the ability. However, such progress has also caused two nations to develop new and more powerful weapons of mass destruction. The kingdom of Gohtza and the Republic of Uhra (which recently converted from a monarchy). Uhra is building Grand Staff, a gigantic magic engine, while the heavily industrialized Gohtza actively pursues magic research of their own. A third nation, the Free Ocean State of Numara, remains isolated and neutral, though it is falling into disarray due to a general attempting to stage a coup d'etat. Uhra, at war with Khent, a nation of beastmen, sends its forces to the Highlands of Wohl for a decisive battle at the start of the game.Trending Open world

Spriggan: Lunar VerseMany years ago, an ancient civilization known for their advanced technology once ruled Earth, but were destroyed in the end by their misuse. So, they left messages for later generations in the form of indestructible message plates written in ancient Hebrew, informing them that if they could not find a good use for their creations, they should be destroyed.
Various paramilitaries, national armies, and armed private forces began to secretly search for these "mysterious artifacts" in order to be used for their own good and against their enemies. The ARCAM Corporation and their military arm, the ARCAM Private Army, can stop these forces from destroying themselves with their elite secret agents known as Spriggans.Action

DiscworldDiscworld is a game released for PC (subsequently Mac, and Playstation) by Teeny Weeny / Perfect 10 studios in 1995. The game was released both on floppy disk and CD-Rom. The latter featured a commentary team created of many veterans of famous Brit-Coms. This included Monty Python's Eric Idle, Radio 4's (later to be more famous) Rob Brydon, ex- Doctor Who John Pertwee, 70s pop singer Kate Robbins, and Blackadder star Tony Robinson. The game is a riff on the Discworld title 'Guards, Guards', however many elements of the text have been shifted, not least the inclusion of Rincewind as protagonist.
The game featured puzzles which were considered far too difficult and obtuse for gamers of the time, but the game itself has had a lasting legacy, now being accepted into such emulators as SCUMMVM.Fantasy Historical Comedy
