Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate
A side-scrolling action-platformer following three generations of the Belmont family across interconnected gothic castle environments. You play primarily as Trevor Belmont, a knight hunting his father Gabriel—now the vampire lord Dracula—to avenge his mother's death. Combat uses whip-based combos, dodges, and area attacks against vampires, demons, and undead enemies. The castle opens gradually as you gain abilities like double-jump and grapple points, letting you backtrack to previously blocked areas. Story chapters shift between Trevor, his son Simon, and a third family member, each with slightly different movesets. Expect environmental puzzles involving levers and timed platforming sequences. The narrative focuses on family betrayal and revenge rather than monster-hunting adventure. Takes place 25 years after the first Lords of Shadow, though you don't need prior knowledge to follow the plot.
