Boktai follows the adventures of a boy vampire-hunter named Django who must overcome traps, defeat enemies and fight through the deepest parts of dungeons to rid the world of evil. Watch out for the amount of sunlight--Django is stronger by day, while the vampires are stronger by night. Review: No sun, no fun. - The game detects UV light. The game also is set to your local location and time and everything in the game factors into this. What does this mean? You play in the daytime and game is easier, if the clouds come out you play at a slight disadvantage, you play at nighttime and the game gets much harder. Also the game plays on a little while your switched off. I captured one vampire, quit the game because I couldn't kill him at night. When I started the game the following day I had found the vampire had done a runner back to his crypt. Kind of cool. But the games greatest point is its greatest failing. The sunlight meter. You cannot kill the major vampires without sunlight. This means you can play up to a point in the game before you need sunshine. Sounds great? Try playing the first level in 10-20 minutes only to find you have to wait three days before there is enough sunshine to kill the vampire. Further into the game you get powerups and weapons that allow you to play on without sunlight but ending the major levels you need it. The game is not a shoot-em-up. It is a thinking game. Even in the combat you have to hoard the sunlight in your gun and bank as much as possible. If you like thinking games, this is certainly for you. Mindless shooting will end the game very quickly for you, unless you live in a country that gets more then a couple of hours sunlight a day. It is the lack of sunlight that is making me not play the game as often as I would like. Review: Boktai review - A nice looking game,with the sunlight meter as an inventive addition, but it really restricts where you play. The amount of times you hold your GBA out of the window seem endless,but it is still a good concept.I gave this 4/5 because it has colourful graphics, is easy to pick up and play and brilliant ideas that all add up to make a 1st class game.Shame about the sunlight meter but in this case, as with many other games, the good points far outweigh the bad ones, and I would recommend this. ## Features - Solar sensor on cartridge absorbs sunlight and influences gameplay - Real time clock changes environment depending on time - Certain monsters and creatures can only be destroyed by using sunlight - From renowned producer and game designer Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear Solid) - For 1 player ## Images ![Boktai: the Sun is in Your Hand - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21dcwgi5dcL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No sun, no fun. *by S***Y on 15 June 2004* The game detects UV light.
