- This is a video walkthrough / playthrough / runthrough / etc of the Game Boy Advance game Castlevania: Circle of the Moon. This is one of my favorite Castlevania games and I have played it many, many, many, many, many times on the different modes, so running through this game was more or less a piece of cake.
I am playing the normal mode, not any of the unlockable modes. Also, while I'm pretty sure I visit all the hidden rooms and get all the hidden items, I don't collect all the cards. I don't bother going out of my way to get the cards since it would take too long to try to grind for them all. Some combinations would have helped here or there, but they weren't needed.
Truth be told, I never really used the DSS system too much unless I'm playing the magician mode. I do just fine with the Venus/Salamander combo for boss fights. I will say I was lucky to have gotten the manticore card so I could fill up on hearts quicker before some boss fights. As for the second form of Dracula, I would have used the thunderbird summon had I bothered to try to get the Uranus/Thunderbird cards. However, I think I did just fine with the final boss fight.
Usually before I head into the arena, I like to at least acquire two double grips. I'm sure it would have taken quite a bit of time grinding for them, so I didn't bother. Thankfully I was able to get past some of the more difficult rooms without getting beat up too badly....Freaking minotaurs... - เกม

I'm watching this because i can't find a clear answer on where to go and where to find the underground area where death is.I am getting super frustrated and might quit again.
This is so sad! I had no idea he had passed away!
My condolences 🙏
RIP my G !
@@ChrizardsAdventures Thank you very much, Jeremy's dad

RIP Jeremy. Thank you for your gift to us. May your soul be at peace and your loved ones as well.
Thank you for the very kind comment. Jeremy would have been happy to know people appreciated his help. Jeremy's dad
This is one of my favorite Castlevania games next to Simon's Quest, so I've played it quite a few times. I was going to make videos going through the game with each class, but I decided later that would have been overkill....
All these years since ive played this...and the intro music still sends chills down my spine.
Heh. This game will always hold a special place in my heart. I might do other videos of this game with the other classes some time in the future...Who knows...
I’ve been stuck in this game for like 6 months and decided to find some help. I stumbled onto your video and your story. First of all, my condolences to your father and the rest of your family. You were taken much too soon, but you fought so hard. You are truly an inspiration Jeremy. I’ll be back once I roll credits and we’re gonna go through this game together.
This such a kind comment. Jeremy would have enjoyed knowing you had enjoyed the video. Thank you, Jeremy's dad
Circle of the Moon is STILL my favorite Castlevania game of all time! No fancy bullshit here! Just pure awesome badass content! I love it! XD
In this game, once you beat it, you unlock a "class". For example, the fighter class can't use magic, but their HP, strength, and defense stat goes up a lot more than normal. The magician class starts with all the cards, and has more MP growth, etc. There's quite a few different classes to play as which really makes the replayability of this game quite high.
Nathan has the best cardio in all the Castlevania characters.
Boss List:
1. Cerberus 12:52
--> Abyss Stairway 17:00
--> Audience Room 19:25
4. Death 1:38:56
-->Underground Waterway 1:48:56
5. Camilla 2:01:28
-->Back to First Point 2:11:32
-->Battle Arena 2:36:53
6. Devil 2:56:15
-->YAAAAY 2:57:50
-->Observation Tower 2:59:45^
7. Rival 3:08:52
--> Ceremonial Room 3:15:24
8. Final Boss 3:16:46
9. Final Boss 2nd Phase 3:18:25
still cant believe they survived that fall :v
It's an actual game. It's the first Castlevania game made for the Game Boy Advance.
this is amazing how he knows exactly where to go. i get so lost in castlevania games sometime
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Jeremy would have appreciated the compliment. Jeremy’s dad
This video really helped me out in finding where to go after the zombie dragon fight. Saved me many hours of running around lost.
I also read on here that the person who did this walkthrough passed away.
Thank you so much for this video, and may you Rest In Peace.
My heart goes out to the family.

Your videos are really still making a difference in the world all these years later. I was never able to get very far in this game as a kid, but using this guide to get through it now as an adult. Thank you to the family for keeping this channel active for all this time. RIP Jeremy.

One of the best in the series. I love this one, I'm 27, I was little when it came out but God, how I loved this game and everything that surrounded it. 11/10 for me
I had 1 and 3 for the NES and Legends for the Gameboy and never liked them. Then found out people loved SotN but haven't played it (to this day) and didn't get all the hype about "Metroidvanias" (Metroid being another series I wasn't too fond of; being an arcade game player mainly). Then pre-ordered the GBA and knew this existed but didn't go for it (mistake). Then played it in adult years, via EZ Flash and... Yeah it's awesome. People claim that the other GBA sequels are better so I guess I should stop caring bout their graphics and go for it because to me this was/is a 10.
I still haven't played the others for GBA, the graphic style of those have turned me off, but this one I've replayed a few times. Am in the middle of replaying it now on the RG351P. The card system annoys me, these last playthroughs I've missed the healing power every time (first playthrough was lucky enough to get all cards) so it would've been better if the cards had fixed positions imho, but other than that...
Rest In Peace Nathan 💯 thanks for leaving these videos to help people like us out.
Jeremy would say you are welcome. He would have been glad to know he had helped you. Thanks for watching and for the comment. Jeremy's dad
@@SaikyoMog When i saw the game over screen,there is a very big and bright moon?
I think I've only seen speedruns of this game, so it's nice seeing a playthrough that covers more than I'm used to seeing. Good going, yo, especially in that arena.
Thanks. I want to do a few more videos of this game going through the different classes...I think destroying everything as the fighter class would be quite fun :P
+SaikyoMog You have earned my respect, no glitch, no TAS just skills. You're great.
I loved watching you play circle of the moon. Your dodges are amazing to watch. Rest in peace.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Jeremy would have appreciated the compliment. I thank you for the kind RIP. Jeremy’s dad
I still watch all these old castlevania walkthroughs as it brings back a lot of good memories to my childhood and when i first got started into playing games. R.I.P SaikyoMog

I remembered the first time I entered the Abyss Stairway...the music grabbed me right away, and it was then (the background castle) I really saw how big the place was. I was hooked then.
I still listen to that song when reading/relaxing. "Sinking Old Sanctuary."
From Bloodlines!
When i played the Witcher 3, i knew Geralt looked like Circle of the Moon's Dracula.
Rip your walk throughs still help lots of us 🙏

Nothing can beat this.... awesome... this is one in my favorite list I'ved played for years ❤❤❤❤
Very nice. I usually go to this channel several times a year for either ""the Legend of Zelda a Link to the Past", "Super Metroid" or various other Snes games. I was more that excited when I found a video walkthrough for a Gameboy Advance game and it happened to be by Saikyomog! He is still helping people all these years later. Not many people get to help the world and make a differance so many years after their time. That is beyond amazing and respectable.
Thanks for being a faithful follower of Jeremy’s channel. Jeremy would have been glad to hear that another fan of the older games had watched. He was not afraid to die, he just did not want to be forgotten. Hearing from someone like you helps me to know he is being remembered. We are doing all we can to keep the channel active. Thanks for your support, Jeremy’s dad.
Absolute brilliance on your part.
I was led to your video trying to see if there was a save room I was missing right before the Hugh battle because the stretch with the purple knights is beating me down. Meanwhile you’re doing the whole game without saving.
Need to rethink my gaming life.
Edit: Saw the posted comment. That hit hard. Rest In Peace Jeremy and to his family: “Small things were important. Seconds were small things, and if you heaped enough of those on top of one another, they became a man's life."
Small things like this channel was surely one of those things.
Jeremy would have really appreciated your comment. Thanks so much, Jeremy's dad
One of the Very very best game ever I've played ever ... and up to now... just remembering those precious moments with this... popular game🎮
Best castlevania ever !!! I miss playing this game
Thanks for watching the video and for the kind comment. God Bless, Jeremy’s dad
on Dragon Zombies i always used the axe because you could get up to three hits on the head if you're skilled and time it right. You missed a hidden room directly below the final save room before the boss in Chapel tower as well. Critiquing done, otherwise you did an excellent run I myself love this game as well. It was such an amazing puzzle on "where the fuck do i go next?" when you first play it lol. Good video man.
This is a very tough game. Your mastery is a pleasure to watch!
Jeremy would have appreciated the compliment and said thank you. Jeremy's dad
This vid is the only reason I’ve made it to Dracula. Thank you Jeremy and Jeremy’s dad.
I can't stop watching Hugh being thrown out of a boss room🤣🤣🤣🤣
I came to this video because I stumbled upon the soundtrack. I didn't know that the person who made this passed.. I hope they rest in peace

I just randomly clicked this as I picked up the LRG Castlevania collection games on ps4. The author of the video seems to have passed away judging by these comments. I hope theyre in a better place and RIP. Will still subscribe.

Ah...even though I'm playing through the game right now for about the 50th time, I never tire of it. An engrossing and lavishly massive world, a great weapon system, a finely tuned difficulty that's just right, GREAT music (I oft just listen to it :P)...easily one of the greatest games I've ever played.
Even watching someone else play is great haha
I have seen my brother play and beat just about Any Castlevania game, including this one, COTM is one of my favs!
Y'know it occurs to me the majority of this game is just this guy going around looting everything in Drac's castle and him and his master saying they have a duty not to tolerate Dracula without any word as to what he's done in this game...
This game is worth adding to your GBA collection, The environment and enemies are wicked and the story unfolds at the end very well. Bosses are really cool
1:23:35 Level 4 music for Super Castlevania! I never made it that far to know that, that track was used in this. I hope they use more from the best Castlevania soundtrack ever. You've got this maze memorized to a tee. Great run.
dont sleep on the Bloodlines track in this game as well
Childhood nostalgia at it's best ....thank you Lord lot letting me live in this great time!!miss my childhood... whenever I have my child....we are going to have a great time

@@mygelalvarez7729 Unfortunately Jeremy lost his battle with cancer in February 2015. If you look at the TH-cam link in the pinned comment you can see his story. I hope you will watch it. Jeremy’s dad
@@mygelalvarez7729 th-cam.com/video/JW2JXL2erLw/w-d-xo.html This will tell you Jeremy's story. Thanks for watching, Jeremy's dad
Oh how I remember this game...👏👏...
The fox archer is Robin Hood by Disney :)
The soundtrack is top notch (it's orgasmic that's what I really wanted to say)
I had this game as a kid, but I sucked way too hard to get anywhere with it. Very cool game though.
I just finished watching the WHOLE gameplay and i must say, you're hella good ! You didn't need to save at all, you took your time and everything was on point.
I can never play like that, i end up panicking and jumping so much lol. I've beaten it before but i think i'll take my time like you did. On top of that you went in in the Area. It took me hella tries to get past it .-. Watching you made my self esteem low LOL. 10/10 gameplay though c:
Out of all the GBA Castlevania games, this one is my favorite. Played it so many times. I was thinking perhaps in the future I could do another one, but choosing another class, since playstyles do change a bit when using another class. A fighter run would be fun I think :P
@@SaikyoMog It's my first time ever in my emulator. But,i don't even know what to do in here?!
@@isaacmontecillo4762 Unfortunately, Jeremy is no longer here to help you, I wish he was. Hopefully someone out there will answer your question. Jeremy’s dad. See th-cam.com/video/JW2JXL2erLw/w-d-xo.html for the story

My favorite Castlevania game ever
I had no idea. I might have to finish this game now.
Great video
Thanks for watching. Jeremy would have appreciated it. Jeremy's dad
Lol u made it look so simple. I literally gave up the game many years ago during elementary school cuz it was so difficult. I’ve played several others now and still feel this is the most difficult one
Thanks for the comment. Jeremy would have appreciated it. Jeremy's dad
I have beaten dracula after countless attempt!!!! this game is much harder than harmony of dissonance
I was wondering lost for ages until I checked this video and found I was breaking a block I should've used as a platform 😭
The patriot of Dracula in this version is also one of the best (if not the best) in my opinion
Always teabag after a boss fight...
The music during the first dialogue strongly reminds me of the music in another classic game, but I cannot recall which one. Does anyone notice that too? Maybe another Castlevania game?
I discovered that I had heard it while playing Castlevania Bloodlines. It's the first track of the soundtrack. It's possible that it's used as a signature melody throughout the series.
Gonna go watch speed run later
Would've helped if the map was brought up every now and then (just to be able to jump in from any point after a certain boss or so and then to know where the character was).
I am wondering.... I have a copy of Castlevania (CotM), and i love it so much.
However, i am affraid i might lose my save games, coz of the battery
But i read that u don't lose your save games (if the battery dies), u only lose the ability ! to save (and your save games will just stay on the cartridge)
Who can tell me for SURE if this is true??
Right now everything is still OK, even after like 15 years...
(though i havent tried to save any games for several years now, just play it every now and then)
Haha. So I was off by a few hours it seems....
I just refurbished my Game Boy Advance with a new casing, buttons, and a glass screen lens over an AGS-101 backlit display, so I decided to play Circle of the Moon again but forgot how tricky it gets. Maybe this time around I'll have the patience because I'll be able to see whats actually happening on the screen. Thanks for the walkthrough!
FYI: If you wanted to play this game using a lit screen, you could have just used a GBA SP, any of the DS models which can play GBA games, or a Gamecube Gameboy player. All official Nintendo hardware options that can play GBA games with a backlit screen.
Still cant believe I beat this oh what fun
iam kinda miss to play that game becouse when iam was a child i play that game
So the hunters whip is the vampire killer?
Can someone tell me how to heal up. And what are the hearts for?
Eventually
Your lack of saving is giving me anxiety 😳
Dracula looks like Chris Hemsworth.

Pretende fazer videos do Castlevania Harmony of Dissonance e Aria of Sorrow?
ey! dude
Good day
Can I use part of your castlevania video? it's for a music video.
I don't think Jeremy would have objected. Go ahead. Jeremy's dad
@@SaikyoMog thanks very much ☺
Someome help me - how the hell do i save this on my gameboy advance?! thank u :)
Press up on the d-pad when you stand on the platform in the save rooms (rooms with big red ball atop the gold / bronze pedestal). select "yes" then the room will fill with a flash of white light and the red in the orb will be depleted as the game saves. It took me forever to figure this out as a 10 year old lol.
I....don't know how I feel about this game....
*I'll just say that it was a trip, I'll leave it at that...*
Each class? I don't understand.
Goddamn this game is awesome, but Dracula is so friggin’ hard in his 2nd form (his 1st phase is a breeze like it always is, all ya gotta do is whip him or throw crosses, axes, whatever subweapon you have while dodging the bats he spawns or fire birds or electric bats that go around in circles all while he spawns in different areas of the area, I’m surprised you can hit his body not just his head, but he ain’t messin’ around in his second form) because his attacks are deadly, they do massive damage and it’s hard to predict where the meteorites are going to be (I already know the pattern but I just wanna beat it!! Perhaps more studying or just “getting good”. Hey, wanna know a trick? Just pause the game over and over like a slow feature on a turbo controller, that might give you an easier time. Also if you can get behind him on the far left or right while he’s doing his laser attack, whip him to death or throw whatever you have to death), his blood bubbles poison you and his lasers almost kill you. When you do about enough damage, he starts going berserk like blinking/flashing white, flying into you (it almost kills you! but depending on level, it might be easier because you have higher defense or more HP, that was no problem in SOTN I beat it just like that) like 3 or 4 times (or however many times it was, but that was my experience) then he turns into an orb with bats surrounding it, still deadly. Need high potions, where can I get those? I sorta forgot.
UPDATE: I may need to know how but asides that, I beat the game! Great game, it gets an 8.5 from me. Feel great after defeating a frustrating-as-hell boss. Dracula’s second form is definitely the hardest in my opinion because like I explained before, his attacks are deadly and can almost kill you like his laser! (Strategy came up with) Even when he’s blinking/berserk/whatever you want to call it, when he dashed into you, it can kill! Also the eye orb is hard to get to because bats are surrounding it and they can still kill you and it’s often up high in the atmosphere (if you know what I mean), I recommend slashing him with the thorn sword (Mars + Mandragora) in that phase, in the first phase in his second form, I use the Mars + Cockatrice (a dragon rooster hybrid that can petrify like Medusa/Gorgon, who would’ve thought a bull could petrify? It’s called Catoblepas. I’ve seen a Minotaur petrify, and that was in Rondo of Blood. Love the Cockatrice attribute) combination to attack him until he starts blinking. How about yours?
But goddamn the background is awesome and the final battle music is fucking awesome (not gonna spoil the final boss music of Harmony of Dissonance and Aria of Sorrow) but not as epic as Falling Down from Mega Man Zero 4 as it is PERFECT (best final battle music ever on GBA). GBA music is awesome. Thank god for soundfonts so we could remix our favourite songs as if they were GBA songs.
Sigh, why didn’t they add save rooms to near where you fight Hugh or the final battle? For you know, quicker or easier access.
Bloodlines level 2?
Amazing walkthrough, RIP. Fuck cancer!
One of the best castlevanias ever made right behind Symphony of the night,Super Castlevania IV and Castlevania lords of shadow.

JUEGAZO
is this a rom hack or a actual game ?
Just a tad... :P
LOL, tell me about it...
I hate the shade enemy class, as well as the other monsters that sound like them when killed. The only thing satisfying is killing them and hearing their death curdling shrieks.😃 They're such losers, Dracula keeps giving them new jobs and monster vessels but they always keep failing, they are so effing annoying... 😩
Attack whip and whirl whip is the best strategy to kill them while shielding yourself from their dirty projectiles. I wouldn't waste a crucifix but the save points are far and few in this and most stages of the game.
what codes do you even use,because you get lost in tyhis game,how do you do this,how???
