Past times were always better or that's what most people think. In the case of video games, few can confirm that current articles have discarded all the meaning of today's games of the year. Lots of cinemas and amazing Hollywood history but not fun.
Therefore, many companies are betting on remakes or memories of their major projects. To give a clearer example, in less than a month the mythical Final Fantasy VII will arrive as a new game to be played in Play Station 4, and of course what is retro for saleNo doubt.
Konami, one of the most important Japanese developers in history, knows this and though she doesn't have her best moments, she has a few surprises in her twin. The most recent one has been launching one of his creations on mobile platforms at a ridiculously low price … and obviously we couldn't resist trying.
We've tried California: Symphony of the Night on cell phones and against all impropriety … it's okay
On March 4 we woke up to a pleasant surprise. Konami was silent on mobile platforms (and without making too much noise) one of the best games ever, Castlegumi: Symphony of the Night
In Symphony of the Night we treat Alucard as the main character, which first appears in Castle III: Dracula's Curse on the NES. Years after Richter Belmont ended Dracula's life, The son of a statue, Alucard, goes to his father's castle, which is strangely where he has been. There you will be sent one of the most powerful vampire miners who will strip our protagonist from all his skills and weapons.
Under this structure, Alucard must subjugate the Castle castle, dispossessing thousands of enemies of all kinds (unreadable, demonic and inanimate objects such as tables or tables alone) while acquiring new skills and acquiring more powerful equipment. The goal is to find out the reason why his father's palace reappeared after so many years and if there was anything to do with it.
Gameplay that never goes out of style … compatible with controls!
If we had been told that we could play California: Symphony of the Night using touch controls … we wouldn't believe it. First of all, to say that we are not dealing with the right title to play with this type of control, is largely due to the need to control Alucard in both millimeters against multiple jumping platforms and platforms, but the fact is that we only need a few minutes to catch them.
The game is controlled by more than a fingerprint and without some crazy moments where enemies can gather and where we have lost command in our hands, California: Symphony of the Night on sensational phones sounds really cool even after 23 years of release
Of course the gameplay can still be improved and in this case you should connect the controller to our device. This is where all the problems end, Touch controls have disappeared from the screen and suddenly it's like we're back in time, recalling one of the great articles in history.
Because the port port is perfect and that says a lot about a company like Konami who seems to have forgotten that it's a video game company. The game is also completely translated into Spanish It also allows us to play with two other secret characters besides Alucard himself, Maria and Richter Belmont, each with different abilities, attacks and movements. To do this you have to enter their name when you give New Game – it's no secret, the game itself informs you when you launch the app.
But this mobile port has many good points. Playing it on a tablet is genuinely fun
Above all, it is necessary to reveal something extraordinary, its price. Carlorinth: Symphony of the Night is available for Android and iOS and costs only 3.49 euros. Frankly, how easy it would have been if Konami had introduced a ridiculously low price of 15 euros and here we would all be criticizing it and rightly so. But no, at 3.49 euros – or less than a Saturday night snack – we can enjoy one of those video game history. Don't miss out.
