  • Full walkthrough of a CV1 hack. Story (from a description on romhacking.net):
    "1476, Romania. A terrifying castle rises up from the mist. Along with the castle rose a dark powerful being named Count Dracula Vlad Tepes. A man named Trevor Belmont was fated to defeat the powerful vampire, aided by a witch named Sypha, Dracula's own son Alucard, and a pirate named Grant DeNasty. Together the team traversed the dark halls of Castlevania, defeating the count and his countless minions.
    In 1777 a young child was born, and abandoned on a merchant ship with nothing but a headband with a mysterious crest, and the name Armund. The sailors raised the child on the high seas, and taught him the ways of being a sailor. Armund grew to be one of the greatest men that the merchant ship ever saw.
    Late 1797, word started to spread of the legends of Count Dracula, and his tyranny in the land of Romania. It was about that time, that Armund ran into an old Romanian man in Serbia. The old man knew a lot about the history of Count Dracula, and his reign of terror in Romania. The old man recognized the crest on Armund's bandanna, and told him that it belonged to the DeNasty clan, and that his ancestor helped defeat Dracula. Armund decided to leave his life on the high seas to seek out more answers about his ancestry.
    Romania, 1800. It's been 3 years since Alucard defeated his father in battle and has gone into eternal slumber. Armund's search has taken him to the mountains of Romania, not far from the town of Jova. A mysterious letter hinted that he might be able to find answers in the castle of Count Olrox, a servant of Count Dracula's. Armund set out of Olrox's castle, armed only with an enchanted barbed rope from Serbia. This will truly be the greatest and most arduous adventure of Armund DeNasty's life."
    This is a very good hack and it changes almost everything from original game. Difficulty is a little too high at times, though. But still, I recommend everyone to play it.

    This game, and Holy Relics are by far the best Castlevania rom hacks there is. It's like playing 2 new games. And both were made by the same guy who calls himself Optomon/Optovania. Made some really good homebrews as well. Rollie is imo one of the best NES games ever made.

    Finally, someone figures out the "intended" method to defeat Slogra. That boss's difficulty level was the biggest mistake I made while making this game, because when everyone gets to him, they basically say "F**k this $#!t!", and turn off the game. In the (half-hearted) words of Kofi Annan: "NEVER AGAIN".

    Thanks for the input. Bosses are almost always the most challenging part while making these projects, but I feel they arguably have the most significant impact on the player.

    Death has always been an indispensable character in the Castlevania franchise. He is the second most powerful adversary next to Dracula. If Death is not in a Castlevania game, then it is not a Castlevania game!

    A Castlevania game where Death is the final boss? Huh, that's pretty neat. I guess it makes sense given the book "Akumajo Dracula: Kabuchi no Tsuisoukyoku", which has Olrox as the main villain while Death views him as a traitor. Although the novel takes place sometime at or around 2035 while this story only takes place 3 years after SOTN.
    Anyway, great hack! Loved it.

    Good hack! I like the fact that Death is the final boss, and that you had Dracula replaced with SOTN's Olrox (who is really supposed to be Count Orlock from 'Nosferatu'). Also, nice remake of the music from SOTN's Library Stage.

      That's Dance of Pales being played in stage 15 of this walkthrough. It's not played in the library in SotN. I forgot what stage Dance of Pales is played in in SotN, though, because I haven't played it in a long time. I still have it downloaded from the Playstation store on my PS3. I think it was only $9.99.

    I wouldn't say that Slogra is too difficult. The required tactic becomes pretty obvious after couple of hits. The one who gave me the most trouble is Gaibon - took some time for me to understand how to fight him if I miss the axe subweapon.

    Death is the final boss. I think it makes sense because he is the most difficult and creepiest boss anyways having also a second part of the fight. :) At least in the original version of Castle Vania on NES.

If you didn't like my criticism so highlight the positive things you think about the hack and don't offend me. This kind of attitude won't make you seem better than me. I don't need to prove you anything. Look outside the window of your house. The world is wider. Just didn't like the hack, didn't like the arrangements and especially the "instruments" used to rearrange the tracks to the NES chip tune format. Can you understand this? Call me a purist if you like but no, I don't play only Konami games.

    overall the hack looks fairly easy, on par or less difficult even than CV1. however some of these boss fights look grueling. the runner shows a penchant for getting down and dirty against these gound and pound bosses. slogra, gaibon, and jekyll-hide... no fancy finesse or overpowered subweaps in those fights, runner just throws down an ass whipping =D
