Also one of the very few which doesn't not feature the Dracula Castle. Is the one from Camilla and it feels different.

[@felipesantos8446]

Yes, it's a very cool Castlevania, but the navigation through the castle is not the best (because most of the time you will be going up or down) and not to mention that the chances of dropping the cards are ridiculously low. I would say that if you want to have a better experience with the game it's good to apply the "Card UP Patch" (And that's exactly what I did), which makes the cards to be acquired by exploring the castle and enemies are more likely to drop healing items.

I always wondered why the Necromancer had dialogues yet Death, one of the classic villains in the whole Castlevania saga, was more like a random boss. Maybe it's because Camilla had a bigger role in this game?

[@baifomet6425]

Yeah, Camilla was the one who resurrected Dracula in this game. Death was a mere security guard this time. Still no clue why the necromancer had dialogues rather than Death, tho.

[@liriumcarrousel4284]

Not really? He was hit by 4 hits of 21 equalling 84 damage during the move, in comparison it restored 300 HP, meaning a net gain of 216 health, which is a positive total for the dragon and damage that you'll have to deal back, they aren't considered the difficulty spike of the game for nothing, if the dragon could do this indefinitely it would be almost impossible to beat with pure whip.

[@rockhyde7775]

The last boss of this game was definitely the hardest. Dracula is a cakewalk on his first phase but Demon Dracula is a friggin’ nightmare because his attacks can nearly KILL you! I mean, he has meteors, lasers and friggin’ poison bubbles! They are DEADLY! After you get through that, he will start to rush into you, it can KILL you!! Then he becomes a floating eye shrouded with bats and it’s equal as deadly. The hardest Dracula fight next to PoR and OoE imo. But the other final battles are equal as challenging, I found Dracula Wraith from HoD the least difficult but I think Chaos (totally not Dracula!) and Dmitri transformed (also not Dracula!) are still a decent challenge though. How were you able to beat him that fast?!? I can’t even do it that quickly. For all you struggling to beat Demon Dracula, I suggest using Tonfers or Swords or summoning a monster like Cockatrice or some giant Electric Bird (or Dragon or whatever it was) or the Unicorn (to restore health). By the way, the final battle music (Proof of Blood) is the best final battle music in the entire series. All those final battles are awesome in those games. It is satisfying as ever when you kill them.

[@rockhyde7775]

Other than that, I really like this game though. Too bad potions are scarce and there’s no shops or currency in this game.

[@rockhyde7775]

GBA and DS Castlevania is far superior to the Game Boy games, truth be told. I really like how the GBA and DS Castlevania follow the SOTN formula, I really like that. They have RPG Elements and Levelling Up and take much longer to beat (a common complaint from me in RPGs but they’re still awesome).

don't be fooled by this run people who haven't played this, words cannot express how godamn hard this game was. especially as a little kid when it came out. in the second dracula fight in his final form, dracula has a move that wasn't in this run where he showers meteors and its incredibly difficult to dodge, almost impossible without using invulnerability from dss cards. you can't dodge it and it takes like 80% of your health even with good items and levels this literally took me over a year to beat as a kid, the bosses were soooo hard. and you had to figure out how to navigate through the castle

This castlevania is in my top 5 favorites for sure. I have always felt it didn't get the popularity it deserved

[@damienjohn]

damn dude how many resets did that last boss fight take you? That was a pain in the ass in my playthrough..

Essa batalha final contra o Dracula tem umas das atmosferas mais loucas de toda a saga. Sensacional!

[@Gazing-09]

Something I didn't know about the second boss theme (Zombie Dragons, Death, Hugh and Carmilla) is that it's the theme of the Evil God and final boss of one of the earlier Castlevania game which I unfortunately I can't quite say which...
