Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse is one of the games that I don’t remember if I played before. I’ve owned my copy since the early 2000s, and I must’ve played it at some point. It is one of the retro games that I don’t remember playing as a kid, but I do remember hearing one ofContinue reading “Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse is a Great NES Game”

Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge is Great!
Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge is an odd entry in the series. It was released in 1991, four years after Simon’s Quest, which is also titled Castlevania II. To try and avoid any confusion, I’ll just call this Belmont’s Revenge. It is the second Game Boy game, and it is a sequel to Castlevania: The Adventure.Continue reading “Castlevania II: Belmont’s Revenge is Great!”
Castlevania: The Adventure is a Great Game Boy Game
Castlevania: The Adventure was the first Game Boy game for the Castlevania series. I reviewed this a while ago, but I didn’t do a very good job with that post. It was in an odd format, and I wanted to update it and do a better job of reviewing the game. I’ll be playing thisContinue reading “Castlevania: The Adventure is a Great Game Boy Game”
Castlevania: Bloodlines, one of the Best Genesis games
I could’ve sworn that I’d already written a post for Castlevania: Bloodlines, but I apparently didn’t. This game was released on the Sega Genesis in 1994, exclusively for that console. In the mid 1990s, Konami started publishing games for the Genesis, and this is one of the better ones released for the console. This isContinue reading “Castlevania: Bloodlines, one of the Best Genesis games”
Castlevania Chronicles is a Great PS1 Game
Castlevania Chronicles was a late release on the PS1. Konami released the game in 2001, and it is a remake of the first game. It is fun that they did this, especially since the game is quite good. This is not a game that I played as a kid. I might’ve seen it in storesContinue reading “Castlevania Chronicles is a Great PS1 Game”
A Look Back at Castlevania on the NES
Castlevania was one of the first horror themed games that I played. It was very different than any other game on the NES that I had played up to that point. Seeing ghouls, skeletons, and gorgon heads was a little crazy for me as a little kid. This is one of the games that I’veContinue reading “A Look Back at Castlevania on the NES”
Infernax is an Amazing Action RPG
Infernax is an action-RPG that is everything I would have wanted from a modern remake of Castlevania II. It has many similarities with the Castlevania games, and I really like the cutscenes and graphics. It is a wonderful game, and I like that they added an option for another playable character. There is a levelContinue reading “Infernax is an Amazing Action RPG”
The 10 Best Creepy Horror Games on the SNES
Nintendo isn’t known for having horror games. This doesn’t mean that there aren’t horror games on Nintendo consoles; it just means that they aren’t as prominent as they are now. The SNES has several horror theme games. There were more games in Japan. These games never made it to the US for a variety ofContinue reading “The 10 Best Creepy Horror Games on the SNES”
Revisiting Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest, Better than You Think
Let’s talk about a game that gets way too much crap. Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest is a game that needs a map. It is an ambitious game that wasn’t as good as the first game in the series. Does this make it terrible? No, it doesn’t. Unlike the first game, this is a non-linear adventureContinue reading “Revisiting Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest, Better than You Think”
Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest Worlds of Power #4 by F.X. Nine | Book Review
Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest is one of those games that has gotten a bad reputation over the years. Most of it, in my opinion, comes from the AVGN episode on the game. It isn’t a bad game, but it can be a bit confusing. The Worlds of Power novelization of the game does an excellentContinue reading “Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest Worlds of Power #4 by F.X.
