Devilish for the DS can be pretty hard to find since, as far as I know, it was not released outside of Japan. If you played this on the Sega Game Gear, you will quickly realize that the use of the dual screens as well as updated graphics and features make this superior to any earlier versions, but the core game is basically the same.
Although this game obviously hasn't single-handedly revived the "brick and paddle" game craze of the 80's, it is a great twist on an old theme. The creepy music and horror setting work well together and game play is smooth, fun, and reasonably challenging (there are three difficulty levels to choose from). The use of the double-paddle is really ingenious and it is easy to start breaking through barriers and pounding the baddies within the first few minutes of game play. Of course the Japanese text can be frustrating for some players, but it certainly won't stop you from enjoying the bulk of the game unimpeded.
Is this an amazing game that you cannot live without? Probably not, but if you like this kind of game and you can appreciate the horror setting, it's worth snagging a copy. Of course this title just gets harder and harder to find as time goes on, but it's not worth shelling out outrageous sums of money for so definitely compare prices when you find a copy.
