DOS Game: Castlevania (1990 Konami)
49Every century, the notorious vampire known as Dracula rises from the dead to instill fear across the land. A courageous vampire hunter named Simon Belmont embarks on a perilous journey into the Count's mansion with the aim of vanquishing him. Throughout his quest, he must confront various malevolent beings, including skeletons, bats, fishmen, medusa heads, and other sinister creatures.
Castlevania is a side-scrolling action platformer in which players assume the role of Simon Belmont, who possesses the ability to jump and wield his whip directly in front of him. Players can acquire power-ups by defeating foes or by striking candles found throughout the castle. One notable power-up enhances both the strength and reach of Simon's whip. Various weapons can be collected, each consuming hearts upon use; these hearts can also be gathered from defeated monsters and candles. Furthermore, certain walls conceal hidden treasures, such as health-restoring turkey or abilities that allow for Double and Triple shots with the weapons Simon has obtained. At the conclusion of each section within the castle, a formidable boss awaits, which must be defeated to progress. Ultimately, this journey culminates in a climactic encounter with Count Dracula himself.
