The Castlevania Dominus Collection includes a trilogy of classics with clever ideas about how to make Nintendo DS games work on other platforms.
For anyone looking to explore the best Castlevania has to offer, the just-launched Castlevania Dominus Collection is pretty much a no-brainer. It includes a trilogy of games from the Nintendo DS era that show designer Koji Igarashi arguably at the height of his powers: the experiences combine smooth, satisfying action with worlds that are intricate labyrinths to be mastered slowly over time. Bringing that experience to modern platforms alone makes the collection worth it.
There are a few other options, though, which really let you customize the experience. For two examples: you can have just the action and the map side by side, or you can have it top and bottom to mimic an actual DS, like this: Two different looks for Portrait of Ruin. I’ve been playing through Portrait of Ruin mostly using the side-by-side option, but the fact that there’s so much choice here is important.
