This game is highly regarded among both PC Engine collectors and Dracula/Castlevania fans alike - it is one of the finest entries in the series (before it took on Metroid-style gameplay) and an essential purchase.ĭracula X is well known as one of the best - if not the best in the "traditional" Castlevania series, the more linear style of gameplay rather than the "metroidvania" style that debuted in Symphony of the Night. The gameplay is balanced carefully - it's quite challenging in places, but practice always pays off without it getting too frustrating. The music is also top notch with familiar tunes remixed well and some great new music too.

The visuals are superb throughout with some great parallax scrolling, huge sprites and atmospheric design. However, there are multiple routes through most levels that allow you to open up different areas to play - this means that you can complete the game without playing every level, giving the player incentive to replay to find all the secrets.ĭracula X is an action platform game of the highest quality. The levels are split into various sections and end with a boss fight. Secondary weapons are powered by collecting hearts - each also has a super power that can be activated when you are really up a creek without a paddle. You make your way into Dracula's castle armed only with your whip - but along the way you can pick up secondary weapons, such as throwing axes, daggers and time-stop watches. Taking the role of Richter Belmont, you set out to destroy the evil presence of Dracula. AKA: DRACULA X - RONDO OF BLOOD, CASTLEVANIA
