Castlevania Portrait Of Ruin Its It Still Not Bad Huh

Dive into my honest review of Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin from the Dominus Collection! After pitting Dawn of Sorrow against Aria last year, I revisited this DS gem—and it's solid, but no Symphony of the Night. Packed with dual protagonists Jonathan and Charlotte, portrait-hopping worlds (foggy London streets to Egyptian pyramids!), and Belmont whip action, the first half shines with stellar Metroidvania exploration and puzzles. But the second act? Padding city. We break down the WWII-era story tying into Dracula's lore, smooth character swaps, killer graphics blending 2D/3D, remix-heavy soundtrack, and that epic Richter boss fight.
