iPhone Puzzles Gamers with Castlevania

Posted May 13, 2010 by M.H. Williams

Today, in a somewhat surprising move, Konami announced Castlevania Puzzle: Encore of the Night. (Let that sink in for a bit.) The game, designed exclusively for release on iPhone and iPod Touch, is a puzzle-RPG revision of the classic action-adventure.

Looks interesting but we'd rather have another 'Metroidvania' title, perhaps on 3DS.

A shocking first in the long-running franchise, Castlevania Puzzle will allow players to don the role of Alucard in a vast Columns-style game based on Symphony of the Night. Players have the chance to play either as Alucard or numerous other characters from the Symphony of the Night.

Konami said the game would be available "soon" on the App Store. Pricing was not revealed.
