    This game is an homage to castlevania by the creator himself, all of the systems are familiar and the game play is tough as nails.

    This game doesn't look that great, and it's kind of a farming expedition—feels like homework a lot of the time. I get that people like SOTN, but this could be more modern-ified.

    If your a fan of metroid or Castlevania you will enjoy this game. On switch it becomes better since you can the game on the road.

    Sorry that I can't say much about the game. It was bought as a gift for the kids. The kids seem to enjoy it as it's what I believe it to be the sequel to the 1st Bloodstained. On that note, I really can't recommend it either because I don't know how it really plays out. Sorry.

    Fantastic game. Switch version is awesome, but due to system it is not as crisp as the Xbox or PS4. Worth every penny though!

    The game is amazing and plays like a sucessor to the castlevania series. The problem lies with the switch port. It plays choppy and looks lacklusterd to its competitors. Once fixed, the game should be better and rated at 5 stars.

    This popular game is a bit hindered on switch even after a patch to smooth out the frame rate. If you don’t plan to play it portably you should choose a different platform
