I can appreciate the classic arcade spirit of Vampire Crystals, but it does little to mask the shortcomings of old-school design while adding its own set of issues. Playing it single-player is chore, but convincing a group to play with you might be even more laborious. There just isn't enough meat on these dusty old bones.

With WiiWare definitely winding down now, it can only be hoped that people do not forget about the service completely since Vampire Crystals goes to show there are definitely some brilliant classics on the Wii download service that deserve people's attention.

With a better art direction we could've been playing an epic game, but it feels a little repetitive sometimes. However, the multiplayer modes is charming and will offer us a great experience. It's definitely worth a try.

Waste of time. Uninspired running around small arena levels collecting pickups and fighting or dodging baddies. Much more fun to be had playing free games on a browser.

Boasting classic twin-stick shooter gameplay with a variety of different power ups and multiplayer modes, this is definitely a worthy addition to any gamer's library, even if the difficulty curve might drive you a bit batty.
