Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia is the latest game of the Castlevania series on the DS Lite. After the success of Symphony of the Night, Konami was unable to feature innovation in the succeeding releases. However, Order of Ecclesia is designed with the objective and intent to revive the fading series.

The wide-ranging boss battles and the streamlined level designs are among the most appealing features of the platform genre. The backgrounds and musical score are immensely successful in creating an apprehensive mood that is essential for a battle. Moreover, the versatile combat system is enough for providing a rewarding experience.

The gamers play with the ultimate goal of killing a parasitical vampire, but they do not have an access to the legendary whip. This is because in Castlevania - Order of Ecclesia you play as Shanoa, who is not included in the Belmont clan. As such, you have to depend on an alternative resource: power from the bodies of foes. You steal this magic in the form of glyphs that can be transformed into weapons like swords and lances. Additionally, there are also some powerful spells to assist you in the battle of defeating Dracula. So you can navigate through the walls, use your batlike skills and the glyph system to overpower the evil.

If you are disappointed with the previous Castlevania games, you must not miss the Order of Ecclesia, as it will perk up your interest in the amusing series again
