I was honestly surprised about how good Castlevania III was! I initially thought it was just going to be just alright like the previous entries in the series, but no, this game is pretty great!
The main thing I liked about Castlevania III was the new characters you could play as and how the game didn't restart after getting a game over. My favorite character to play as was probably Grant because of his ability to climb on walls and his increased speed and jump heights, even though he had decreased damage, defense and range. Alucard was the main character I used other than Trevor (who is just Simon Belmont), and I thought he was fun but a little less than Grant. Alucard has a ranged orb attack, and a special move that turns him into a bat which was very useful. I really only got to use Grant and Alucard, so I have no thoughts on Sypha since I didn’t unlock her.
Most of the bosses were fun, with my favorite boss being Death which was probably due to how much time I spent on the boss. I enjoyed most of the levels but there were still tedious sections, like all of the auto-scroller segments. I personally disliked majority of the enemies since they were kinda annoying to fight against (like the medusa heads).
I honestly really enjoyed this game, I may come back to replay this game sometime since I didnt get to play as Sypha. Also, I didn't realize how similar Shovel of Hope and this game were until playing it rn.
