Da da da daaaaa! Have no fear, Dungeon Hero X is here, kupo!
I never touched the original Chocobo’s Dungeon titles. The general consensus seemed to be that they were overly simple, childish and repetitive. I thusly ignored them like a good little sheep. I’ve since taken on the task of challenging such notions, and so when the Wii sequel followed, I dove in with my ears covered from nay-sayers.

In 1997, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night changed the face of what we call a Castlevania, leading to half a dozen hand held sequels in its image. But just after, the classic Gameboy saw a new title in the form of a classic prequel. Starring Sonia Belmont, Castlevania Legends sought to put an origin story to the series. But in revitalizing the series, Koji Igarashi felt that the game did not fit his Castlevania time-line, and removed it from the official lore. So, what exactly are we missing, then?
