Castlevania Anniversary Collection
Official Description: “Konami’s Castlevania Anniversary Collection traces the origins of the historic vampire franchise. Included is a unique eBook with details provided by developers, artists, and others inspired by the Castlevania legacy, shedding fresh light on the world of Castlevania. Released as part of the Konami 50th Anniversary celebration, relive these timeless classics that helped define the platformer genre. From the Belmont clan to their extended bloodlines and allies, the Castlevania Anniversary Collection is the best first step for anyone to take into the world of Castlevania and the fight against Dracula!”
Snakebird
Official Description: “What is the longest possible length a bird can be? Obviously, a question only all the fruit in the world can answer! But where could all this fruit be hiding? Follow Redbird, Greenbird, and Bluebird on a quest for an amount of fruit beyond any bird’s wildest dreams. Snakebird is a very simple but deceptively challenging puzzle game about assuming the right shapes for the task at hand, be it pushing, lifting, teleporting, or just defying the laws of physics.”
For those eager to dive into the Castlevania Anniversary Collection, players can expect to invest around 20 to 30 hours to complete all included titles. In contrast, Snakebird offers a shorter experience, taking approximately 3 to 10 hours to finish.
