Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow Cheats for Game Boy Advance

Too often in gaming, a formula of near-perfection is reached in one game, and abandoned completely by that games successors. Thankfully, companies like Konami know that games of a similar formula can be released multiple times, as long as theres enough flavor and a sense of newness to the game that itll work. Thats what you can expect with Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow.

The third installment of Castlevania on Nintendos Game Boy Advance, Aria of Sorrow follows a near-identical formula to the Game Boy Advances two earlier Castlevania titles, Circle of the Moon and Harmony of Dissonance. However, in this installment, some aspects are abandoned (like the health and magic jars of the first two), while new aspects, such as enemy soul assimilation, are added.

Hint: Kill Iron Golems
The best way to defeat any class of Golem, even the Iron Golem with its 9999 HP and resistence to everything, is to use the soul of the Killer Mantle. This soul swaps the HP and MP of the creature it hits and because Golems have no MP, this is an instant kill.
