Dark Castle is a horrible abomination that is only good when you see other people playing it, the amount of times that I have made my cousins play this turd was amusing in everyway, but besides that this game is horrible. For starters you play as some dude that looks like Shaggy from Scooby Doo that enters a castle and it's dark outside. After you know that you are greeted with the worst sounding 16 bit music ever and worse of all it's the only song in the entire game, luckily you can turn off the music but you have to be a bit patient and wait for the song to finish and have that small rest, because if you turn if off while the music is playing it will play that sound until you turn the music on and its really annoying. Now you may be asking me "Hey man, what's the game play like?" And the answer to that would be absolute garage. First of all the controls legit are some of the worst that I have ever had the opportunity to try, moving is extremely slow and jumping just looks and feels odd, you have a weapon to fight enemies which are mainly bats and other gargoyles and other monsters, but the way you fight in the game is incredibly annoying! You throw the rock you have as a weapon by pressing the B button, but you have to aim using the up and down parts of the D pad, and for a console that promotes fast gameplay and blast processing, this is some of the slowest aiming I've ever played, in a way it's kinda like the rock in Friday the 13th for the NES. Now to truth be told I never beaten this game, because the controls are so bad that I honestly could not get through the game, and kept dying because the controls are bad, and honestly it's not really worth it in my opinion. In conclusion Dark Castle is a really bad game and easily is on the top of the worst Genesis games that I've ever played. I give Dark Castle a 0/10. P.S Dark Castle was ported to the Phillips CDI and it's just as bad.Read full review
