Castlevania: Symphony of the Night represented a major sea change for what was, back in 1997, Konami’s best-known franchise. Heavily inspired by bona fide classic Super Metroid, Symphony of the Night created an inescapable trend with subsequent Castlevania releases. It took a series best-known for grueling difficulty and linearity and replaced it with exploration-based, RPG-driven gameplay. The results were staggering: Symphony of the Night is widely considered to be not only the best Castlevania game, but one of the best games of all time. Naturally, it spawned a litany of handheld games modeled after it. And virtually every one of those games is far superior in just about every conceivable way to Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate.
