Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon review

While it appears Igarashi only had a supervisory role—which almost certainly involved little more than the occasional approving nod—Curse of the Moon offers more than a passing wink to the series with which he made his name. If someone told you this was a great lost NES Castlevania game, you’d have a hard time proving otherwise.What is it?

If only all stretch goals were as good as this. Conceived as a bonus for those who backed Koji Igarashi’s Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night on KickStarter, Curse of the Moon looks and plays like a classic 8-bit game that never existed. Inti Creates’ last involvement with the crowdfunding platform didn’t end too well, its good name tarnished by association with Keiji Inafune’s disappointing Mighty Number Nine. This, however, bears all the hallmarks of a developer determined to redeem itself.
