Sword of Xolan is short bursts of Castlevania for your mobile
Plus excellent pixel art to boot
A cruel world, filled with hideous monsters, hidden treasures, special magic, and sword swinging: this is the world of Sword of Xolan from Alper Sarikaya.
There's a fair chunk of Castlevania in here, what with all the exploration and combat, but it's bite-sized and approachable too, which is exactly what you want for a mobile game.
And that art? It's brilliant.
Sword of Xolan comes to iPhone and iPad on May 21st, it'll be a premium release without ads or IAPs and also comes with full MFI Controller support.
