Abstract: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow: Mirror of Fate brings the series back to Nintendo's portable systems, where it thrived for a decade, after a lengthy hiatus. Unfortunately, the game suffers from a single glaring problem: It's not very good. Mirror tries...

Great atmosphere, Fits in the older Castlevania universe, Diverse and fun gameplay
Inconsistent design, Often drag graphics, Serious pacing issues
Mercurysteam has the potential to become Konami's most valuable developer, but it has a long way to go. Mirror of Fate can feel schizophrenic and almost improvisational in its design, but it also feels more distinctive and energetic than Lords of Shadow...

Overall the game is well balanced, challenging and fun to play. I would have enjoyed playing as each character longer, but it is possible to go back and play as them again to collect any items you may have missed.Grade: B-[portfolio_slideshow id=134367]Ch...
Abstract: Developer MercurySteam continues its foray into the Lords of Shadow storyline with Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate. Their goal is to create a fully realized title that takes advantage of the unique features of the 3DS. Overall, Mirror of ...
Classic 2D gameplay and comboheavy combat work well together, Stages are attractive and offer a variety of challenges to overcome, The plot bravely defies the series' history.
Quicktime events are abundant and feel out of place, The fear of death is softened by constant, automatic checkpoints, The story is predictable
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate is riddled with minor flaws, but it stays aloft thanks to its enjoyable mix of combat and platforming....

Impressive graphics. Explores interesting ideas.
Mish-mash of elements feel uneven. God of War-style combat doesn't translate well to 2D
The side-scrolling portable sequel to Castlevania: Lords of Shadow tries to combine classic side-scrolling Castlevania gameplay with the God of War-like action of Lords of Shadow, but it just doesn't come together....
If fans come in expecting something more like Castlevania IV than Symphony of the Night, they're in for a good experience. More than anything though, Mirror of Fate has me excited for Lords of Shadow 2.Castlevania LOS: Mirror of Fate was reviewed by Geoff...
Une aventure bien rythmée et fluide dans sa narration, Très belle réalisation qui exploite bien la 3D relief de la 3DS, Système de combat accessible et complet, Gameplay varié mêlant combats, plates-formes et énigmes, Bande son réussie
Scénario qui manque d'ambition, Fluidité parfois un peu limite et aliasing prononcé, Durée de vie limitée (mais toutefois pas artificiellement augmentée par la difficulté)
Mirror of Fate propose une aventure variée et bien rythmée, à la difficulté progressive mais très accessible. Les puristes seront peut-être déçus par ce point mais le jeu évite ainsi la frustration. La durée de vie s'en ressent évidemment mais reste corre...
