Pandora's Tower: Take 1

Rate this Entry
So I pre-ordered it a few weeks ago and finally got Pandora's Tower today.

Jumped right in and I'm already adoring the graphics, gameplay, and puzzles. Combat is a little bit boring, but I chalk that up to my never playing Castlevania, so being a noob at chain-whip using.

So far the only trouble I'm having is getting money and keeping a stock of recovery items.
...the second of which is because of my near-failure against the 2nd Tower's Boss.
That shit sucked royally. I didn't figure out the pattern to defeat it until I had used up all recovery items and gotten it down to 3/5 health. Ah the joy of it.

In other news, I'm on the 4th Tower now, and disliking Fire. Kind of like my dislike of the Goron area in Twilight Princess, but a little bit more.

    Ooh, Pandora's Tower.
    I bought that while in New York, though I still have to wait for my friend to send it to me.
    That, and I need to fix some issues with my Wii. ;_;

    Hope you get soon and have the Wii working as soon as you're able, Kaiza; It's a great game! ^^
    ...probably those who have played Castlevania are having a much better time with it than I have been. XD

    A little update: I got the Scythe and like it the most of the 3 weapons so far, and defeated the 4th, 5th, and 6th Towers yesterday.
    Skipping the 7th for now and going to the 8th Tower now.
    I wish I was better at stocking up/keeping healing items. ^^;;;
