Game: Castlevania Bloodlines
System: Sega Genesis
Version: (US)
This is the longplay of the game Castlevania Bloodlines, an action and platform game released in March 1994 with only a short interval between each region: March 17th in North America, 18th in Japan (with the name Vampire Killer) and 20 in Europe (where it was titled Castlevania: The New Generation). This game was released exclusively for the Mega Drive/Sega Genesis.
To tell the story of the game, we go to the 19th century, when the largest nations in Europe made great efforts to maintain a balance of power across the continent. The inhabitants felt that a war would break out sooner or later, the countries formed various alliances, which in turn opened up feelings of distrust against each other (yes, this was at the time of the First World War). The game's plot takes place in 1914, when a sorceress named Drolta Tzuentes resurrects Elizabeth Bartley, a countess known as "Dracula's niece", who decides to bring Count Dracula back to life. To do this, she kills the crown prince of Austria, so that the many souls sacrificed in the war would be available for her evil purpose. To prevent the forces of evil from triumphing, two men emerge: the American John Morris and the Spaniard Eric Lecarde, who will fight to combat the threat. The duo of heroes must invade the ruins of Count Dracula's Castle to once again put an end to his reign of terror. However, they don't find him there and will need to travel to several European countries to prevent Dracula's resurrection.
In the game we can choose between John Morris and Eric Lecarde, each with a different gameplay. Morris uses the Vampire Killer as a weapon, the whip that passed down through several generations of the Belmont family and Eric Lecarde uses the Alucard Spear (erroneously transliterated as "Alcarde Spear"), a powerful spear. Morris can use the whip to hang from the ceiling of the levels, while Lecarde can bend down and carry a high jump to reach high places. Main weapons can be evolved through 4 levels. The game also has secondary weapons (axe, boomerang and holy water), which can be used equally by both characters, as well as a powerful attack that hits the entire screen and replaces the secondary weapon until the player suffers damage. The candle breaking scheme exists here too, but instead of hearts, the player receives red and blue jewels (rare, worth 5 red jewels).
Although the stages are the same for each character, some passages can only be accessed by a specific hero. Once the character is chosen, the player needs to go to the end of the game with him. Each character has a different ending.
It's an excellent game and very well produced. It is the only game in the Castlevania series to be released for the Sega Genesis. The video was recorded on Expert difficulty, with both characters.
Hope you like it!
