Sure the game might be a bit on the short side, but given the game's addictive gameplay and fairly high degree of difficulty, it's difficult to complain, especially considering the game will only set you back 500 Nintendo Points.

What's there is fun and feels well designed, but with only three levels it is over far too quickly.

DV Zero surprised me with its well-laid-out, retro-style platforming -- so much so that my daily commutes flew by as I kept my nose in the screen. I would love to see a follow-up, but as this was basically a promotional tie-in, there's little chance of that happening.

Amazing game! I wish there were more games like this. It is a 2D Metroidvania type game where you are this space shooter guy who goes around and collect power ups to become stronger. Many power ups in this game however aren't ever lasting, but simply short-term. It is really simple to pick up and play, it has a really fun jet-pack mechanic which lets you fly all the time. It is a must have if you own a DS or 3DS.

This game is absolutely worth playing if you enjoy action platformers from the early days of the medium.

If this had been a real NES game back in the day, it'd have been one of the best. [May 2010, p.88]

The '80 are back in action with another original work by Capcom: Dark Void Zero is a brilliant but short platform adventure similar to masterpieces like Metroid and Castlevania.

A remarkable action-adventure game at a very reasonable price, which nostalgic players will love.

Being a Metroid clone, Dark Void Zero is quite perfect for the digital delivery and is seriously recommended for those who haven't forget the thrill of the 80's arcade.

Summary[DSiWare] As the '80s were drawing to a close, the developers at Capcom began work on a top-secret project that aimed to set new standards for the platformer genre. That game was called Dark Void. Alas, Capcom suspended development on Dark Void as it began to evaluate the SNES. Before long, the game was shelved and drifted, unnoticed, i... Read More
