Maybe it is because those undead who still have some semblance of a brain are so darn arrogant about cheating death. That makes it all the more fun...read the complete Lunar Knights review at Wham Gaming
The two original Boktai games released for the GBA were among the most innovative and unique titles in recent memory. This also limited them to a very small fanbase and in turn less than impressive sales numbers. Regardless both games captured the...read the complete Lunar Knights review at ZTGameDomain

Chief among these is the lackluster character development. Most of the people you run into in the game possess flat and uninteresting personalities. It's rather strange: you think if you lived in a perpetually dark world that's been conquered by...read the complete Lunar Knights review at GamePro
The occasional flaws are most likely what Konami wanted to avoid when they decided that Boktai-redux on the DS would instead be named Lunar Knights, and would cover a re-envisioning of the franchise, from the ground up.

Instead, the bloodthirsty villains have taken over the...read the complete Lunar Knights review at Thunderbolt

Back when the GBA was relevant, there was one franchise that failed to become a hit, (even amongst the hardcore) despite being pretty fun. That franchise was Boktai, a series dreamt up by Hideo Kojima, the man who created the Metal Gear series. So...read the complete Lunar Knights review at VGPub
Vampires rule the Earth. With the environmental control satellite system, ParaSOL, under their command, daylight is little more than a forgotten enemy. Trapped in a never-ending night, humans have no choice but to be enslaved in the cities, or fight for...read the complete Lunar Knights review at HonestGamers
Don't let the title's lack of "B-words" fool you; Lunar Knights is basically a next-gen version of Boktai, the isometric vampire-stabbing adventure that used real sunlight to power your weaponry - but without the cartridge-based light sensor and all of...read the complete Lunar Knights review at Games Radar
