Castlevania (NES) Playthrough Part 4: Catacombs
0Simon's next part of his journey through Castlevania involves falling down a great hole into the Catacombs.
The difficult starts to show more notable sings of rising, as some of the enemies get more annoying, get tougher to beat, hurt Simon more, or any combination of the above. I though those stacks of bones were for stepping on, but I thought wrong.
The difficulty gets worse when I have to fight Igor & Frankenstein, or more accurately, Frankenstein's Monster. Igor will just hop from the right to the left and back while shooting at you, and hitting him only stuns him.
Play "Offense" against the Monster while playing "Defense" on Igor. If your current subweapon is the Holy Water, and you also have a Double Shot (II) or Triple Shot (III), you can score a much faster touchdown and kill the Monster and Igor at once.
