Castlevania: Dracula X
Rondo of Blood liteGenre: action - hack n slash
Publisher: Konami
Year: 1995
System: SNES
Gameplay Score: 4
Gameplay Notes:
Simple two-button controls Classic pre-SotN Castlevania gameplay Responsive controls Can only whip in one direction which is a disappointing step back from Castlevania IV Fair enemies with predictable patterns Much better than people give it credit
Level Design Score: 3
Level Design Notes:
Good level design with interesting set pieces like a monster bull dragging its exposed hip bones as he chases you across the screen. However, it's nowhere near as good as IV or Bloodlines. Lots of cheap enemy placement and no branching paths.
Theme Score: 5
Theme Notes:
It's Castlevania
