The cast of Castle in the Darkness is a relatively small one. It’s a tale retold through centuries each told in different form and Castle in the Darkness is no different.

As a title that often references the works of Metroid/Castlevania, is Castle in the Darkness one of the next great classics, or is it simply paying tribute?Ĭastle in the Darkness opens as so many games of the past do: a princess is trapped away in a castle, an unnamed knight ventures off to save her, so on and so forth. Matt Kap, one of the artists in the envoy of Nicalis, has just finished developing and releasing an independently developed title called Castle in the Darkness. Nicalis have made a name for themselves in recent years with their creation and handling of retro-styled titles.
