Many Castlevania games are designed in such a way that some Subweapons are nearly useless and some are incredibly powerful.
You’re stuck doing what works.Īs most of you already know, Castlevania games have a powerup called a Subweapon, which is projectile attack you pick up that can be activated at the expense of Hearts. It really sucks having your fate decided for you because one way to play is clearly more optimal to the others. The game would be a lot better and more fun if every powerup was useful. For example, as great as Contra is, it’s really disappointing how powerful Spread Shot is compared to everything else. Games very often have dominant strategies that take precedence over most or all of the others. Castlevania: Rondo of Blood gets so many things right that few games do, and I think there’s a lot this game can teach us about masterful game design. I’ll try to be as light on the spoilers as I can, because you really should go into this game blind and be surprised by what it has to offer. This article will be an analysis of what makes this game so great. If you want to play the game in English, you’ll have to play Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles for PSP and unlock Rondo of Blood within that game. There’s no region locking on TurboGrafx-CD games, so people outside of Japan shouldn’t have difficulty getting this to run. This is perfectly playable for people who don’t speak Japanese, with the exception of a couple unskippable cutscenes. One day I will be able to rank all these games in order, and I’m very sure Rondo of Blood will be either close to the top or the best.
I don’t want to call it yet because I still have more games in the franchise I need to play first, but I can say at this point in time that it has to be one of the best, for sure. At this point, I think it definitely could be. This game is often claimed to be the best Castlevania game. The game is pretty rare, and I’m lucky enough to own a copy, so I wanted to talk with you guys about it. Dracula is a menace once again and a vampire killer from the Belmont clan storms his way through Castlevania to stop him in a classic 2d action platformer that never got a US release.
