Amazing fun - bad touchscreen hitboxes
This is amazing to be able to play this game after missing the chance to play it originally on PS1.
Would have been five stars if it weren’t for the really small hit boxes for on-screen controls that aren’t even aligned properly. It would have been better to have horizontally aligned buttons :/
Half the challenge of this game is just successfully hitting the attack button. (Jump button is plenty big. Good job)

Controller is A MUST
This game is super frustrating without a controller. The on screen controls are 50/50 and super unresponsive
Cant load trapped in loop
Cant load game, can only continue- one pixel from a killing blow — so i have to completely restart despite starting this session from the last save room i used. Game deletes your save.
Nostalgia
Worth buying if you are a fan of the franchise.
Why ?
Touch controls are horrible. Why port this to phones and not bring it to consoles outside of Sony. It’s nice they did this but pretty bad experience unless you use controller which defeats the purpose of a pocket sized version. Please bring this to switch and other non Sony consoles are not fluid and make playing impossible.

Why did you move Dark Metamorphosis????
The controls feel a bit clunky at times, and sometimes it feels like it just doesn't read my inputs.
Also, in the PlayStation version of the game, you have access to Dark Metamorphosis from the get-go, so you can readily heal yourself when Alucard's at his weakest... Why did you change that??? Why is that ability locked all the way in the library???? Did Death steal Alucard's vampirism, too?????
That one change makes the start of the game infinitely harder than it's supposed to be & it's extremely frustrating & annoying.

No sound
Can’t get the wonderful music or anything coming out. This is why I love the game. The soundtrack. Please help
iOS incompatibility
SOtN needs no introduction, however, does have a bug where audio does not play while the iOS is in silent mode.
I have other games which disregard this mode
Also the screen controls are not great, easier with a PlayStation controller
I’ll review my rating once this is resolved

My favorite PSX game ever!
I'm 37 years old, and I have loved this game since the first time I played on a PSX in 2003. Love playing on my phone now.
Worst game play ever
The game is terrible. Overall - save your money. There is nothing about how to get more health. You essentially need to start a new character. They should owe me the 3 bucks. What a bunch of chumps. This game is terrible. Lucky it’s only 1 star.
Extremely Smooth (and Accurate) Experience
Disclaimer: I used a controller attachment for my experience with this game. I have experimented with the touch controls, which seemed to be fine by my standards. Just keep in mind that most of what I’ll say is from someone who used a controller add-on.
I consider myself to be a massive fan of the Castlevania franchise. With that being said, this is the only port of the game that I have actually brought myself to finish. Being able to have the convenience of just opening up this app and playing the game was honestly the best part of the experience. Whether I’m a passenger in the car, bored at school, or just chilling in bed, this game was readily available on my phone at all times. As long as you don’t care about the very specific things, you will love this port of the game. This is a phenomenal Castlevania entry, and I highly recommend it for anybody looking to get into the franchise. It has: a wonderful soundtrack, stunning visuals for its time that still hold up well in today’s age, intriguing gameplay mechanics within its puzzles(to expand the castle’s explorability) and combat(bat, wolf, and mist transformations), and a classic RPG leveling-up system in which you’re encouraged to explore the entire castle to find every item, armor, and weapon. Not to mention that you can play as other characters aside from Alucard, such as the iconic Richter Belmont & Maria Renard!
If you’re looking for a convinient way to play this, just buy it already. It’s so cheap for the amount of hours you will have enjoying yourself.
Also, Alucard is just so cool…

操作が難し過ぎる
10分で20回ゲームオーバーになります。
初期体力が非常に少ない70程度で、敵に一撃で5から9くらい喰らうので直ぐに体力がゼロになる。
操作がシビア過ぎるため、階段を登って上に辿り着いても、方向キーやジャンプキーがうまく動作せず、下まで落とされる。
ジャンプ攻撃のタイミングがシビアで敵に当たらない。
その間に一方的に敵に殴られてゲームオーバー。
コンティニューで続きからやろうにも、体力が一桁から開始で、また直ぐにゲームオーバー。
しかも、ゲームオーバーの表示が長く、省略も出来ないので、ただでさえ操作でイライラしているのに、バカにされた気分でスマホをぶん投げたくなります。
方向キーやコマンドキーの動作判定が狭いのが原因だと思う。
数日練習しているが、さっぱり慣れない。
先に進めない。
怒りと絶望で血圧が上がります。
昔他の機種で楽しくやっていたのに残念過ぎる。

O controle é ruim
Amo o jogo mas os botões de comando não funcionam de forma natural. Triste demais
Only works with Airpidos
I’m not able to listen the music with out AirPods. Please fix it
Perfeito
Port muito bom de um jogo que definiu um genero.
Not bad!
Decent port, but needs controller support.
Poor audio
The conversations are boring… I was expecting the original audio from ps1. Shame. But the game itself it’s good
Please
Please let me map the controller buttons. I have a retro controller and it has no R3 button, so how am I supposed to open the map?
Remake
Konami, por favor saca ya un Remake o un SOTN 2, será un éxito garantizado.
これはアカンわ😩
操作性が悪いことは当然として、
iPadで遊ぶとグラフィックが終わってる。
特に文字のフォントは酷すぎる。
iPadで遊ぶ時だけでも 縦画面で遊べるようにするべき。絶対に。
ゲームコントローラーは必須レベル。 説明書も無し。
諸々残念なガッカリ移植😩
