Second, this walkthru is NOT 100% complete, nor will it EVER be. However, it does cover almost everything that is in the game. Second, as with many FAQs you find in this format, this document should be viewed in Courier New (Baltic) or (Western) at size 10 or this document will be well out of whack. Third, let me make this very clear from the start. This is a FAQ/Walkthru for the NEW Castlevania game for the Nintendo 64, not the classic NES version. Konami has simply named it Castlevania instead of Castlevania 64 or 3D just to confuse people and plus the 64 and 3D endings just plain sound bad. After writing my first walkthru for MegaMan Legends I discovered two things about writing a FAQ. 1) If you devote enough time to it, it can be a breeze. 2) You become the center of attention on that one game. Any and Every question goes to you. After getting well over 300 e-mails and having a 90 plus contact list for ICQ, I decided it was time to move on. I checked some games out, but they just went bad. Tenchu: Stealth Assassins had too little to write about and Zelda: Ocarina of Time had too much to write about, not to mention it was done by around thirty other people. Castlevania is another matter. It involves everything I like. Death, Role Playing, More Death and Big Bosses. Being the 17th in it's series, Castlevania has plenty to live up to, especially Castlevania Symphony of the Night, one of the PSX's best games. Castlevania is a straight out action game at most moments, but exploring and moving back to previous areas is most common. Dracula has once again risen from his one hundred year sleep and now it is up to two vampire killers to manage the evil that is his castle and then finish off the dark lord himself. Castlevania incorperates multiple endings, new cast members through every play and plenty to keep you coming back for just one more time. It is also the first Castlevania to be in the third dimension, which some welcome, others have scorned (however, most of those have not played the entire game). Well on with the guide! -Antookis ======================================================== [2] )))))))))))))))) Version Updates ((((((((((((((((((( ======================================================== Version 1.4 3/2/99 - Fifth edition of FAQ/Walkthru. - More info of Game in Introduction. - Six more sections added to actual Walkthru. - More Gameshark / Pro Action Replay Codes added. - Slight changes and editions made to Enemy Glossary and Cast Guide.

Dislikes: Vampires, Zombies, Vampire~Zombies Main Weapon: Whip Second Weapon: Dagger Say this one seven times fast. The male role of the game goes to Schneider, a fur wearing, whip cracking, knife slashing all around vampire hunter. Schneider himself is actually a calm fellow, taking time to understand problems but something else resides within him. The most recent in line from the long line of Belmonts who have devoted their lives to be vampire killer. However, the memories of these heroes, Ralph, Simon and Richter, who have helped these blighted lands has faded with time. He receives a warning from his father, "Some day, you may have no choice except to fight." After Reihnhardt's father, Michael passes away, Reihnhardt accepts his destiny to be a vampire hunter, and trains daily in the mountains of his homeland of Vallakia As the 10th year in the mountains approaches the end, incidents of monsters attacking children lost in the woods increase. Reihnhardt senses the increased activity in a sign of the return of the dark lord and emerges from the mountain. He seeks out Priest Samuel, the only one that remembers the past, to undo the seal on the symbol of the Vampire Killer, the holy whip, heirloom of the Belmont clan. With weapon in hand, he is a figure of justice from the Belmont family. Many find this individual to be dark and unapproachable, however the reality of the man is a individual of deep responsibility, silent and cool, where underneath a heart burns with fighting spirit. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | CARRIE FERNANDEZ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Occupation: Magican Age: 12 Height: 142 cm Weight: 35 kg Likes: Cool Costumes, Speaking Spanish Dislikes: The undead, Dracula, Bad Doggies Main Weapon: Energy Blast Second Weapon: Razor Rings Carrie Fernandez is one of the last known descendants from a Spanish family travelling throughout Europe. The family was rumored to have great magic in the form of a magic orb, however this could never be proven. Though, there were stories of a travelling group that had great success in repelling marauding of their wagon train, human and otherwise. This success was not to last however, when the Patriarchal figurehead of the Fernadez family came under the curse of Dracula and virtually obliterated the family. The survivors fled and were thought to have disappeared. Years later, an orphaned child was found to have a talent for magic. She was a gentle, fragile looking child. Her adopted mother traced her origin back to a travelling band that had thought to have been destroyed. Along with tracing Carrie's heritage, it was discovered that her real parents were condemned as evil by villagers frightened by anything that they could not understand. These memories of her mother being burned by the villagers haunt her to the point that she suspends her belief in a god that did not seem to care and also mistrusting of adults. Tragedy strikes again in Carrie's life when a demonic forces come to ravage their village. Her foster mother is killed while diving to save her. Her grief and terror unlock a greater power within Carrie, a power to create an orb, which she unleashes at the demon that bears down upon her. The orb strikes the beast the writhes in agony as it is banished back to the pit. She vows to stop the terror and heads to the castle. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | COUNT VLAD "Dracula" TEPES | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Occupation: BloodSucker Likes: Blood, His Pal Death Dislikes: Belmonts, Wannabe Vampire Killers Main Weapon: Teleport Second Weapon: Homing Flames Ruler of Transylvania and all vampires, he rises again every one hundred years, only to be killed by a member of the Belmont line of vampire hunters. The only exception to this was when he arose without warning in the late 1800s by the dark priest Shaft, only to be put back down by his own son, Adrian Fahrenheit "Alucard" Tepes ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | MICHEAL GELHART | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The father of Reinhart, he also practiced and trained in the art of vampire killing (sounds kinda fun, huh?). While not much is known of his past, Gelhart raised his son to understand what he would become. Gelhart is no longer, but he has left the legacy of the Belmont to Schneider. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | PRIEST SAMUEL | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The only one who knows of the lands past. He is the only one who can reveal the symbol of the vampire hunter, unleashing the holy whip. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | CHARLIE VINCENT | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Occupation: Vampire Killer/Hunter Likes: Crosses, Telling How Great He Is Dislikes: Other Vampire Hunters Main Weapon: Holy Water Second Weapon: Large Cross A very cocky vampire hunter who thinks he can take Dracula on all by himself. He may be very surprised in the end... Vincent is an older vampire killer, who often calls others by the name of "youth". He carries around every anti-vampire weapon in the book, even a giant cross is strapped to his back. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | MALUS | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Occupation: Villager Likes: Playing The Violin Dislikes: Most Dangerous Elements A young boy who became lost in the castle after his parents were killed. Malus is skilled with the violin but during the time of events, seems to turn into more of a for then friend. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | RENON | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Occupation: Businessman Likes: Profit, profit, profit!!! Dislikes: Cheapskates A businessman who sets up shop wherever death and destruction are prevalent. He often is gentle and kind, but his prices say otherwise. Did we mention that he's a demon? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | ROSA | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Occupation: Flourist Likes: Tending To The Rose Garden Dislikes: Careless Visitors A young woman tainted by the curse of the vampire. She is employed by Dracula to water his roses. Schneider and her pick up quickly, but that may not last for long because of her cursed blood. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | ACTRISE | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Occupation: Witch Likes: Turning People To Vampires, Doing off with Children Dislikes: Anything More Powerful Then Her An evil servent of Dracula, she seeks to find a better way of making Dracula use his FULL power. She often holds meetings with Carrie, all of which turn sour. In her past, she actually killed her own child, hoping to reach her goal of killing one hundred children. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | DEATH | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Occupation: ....um.... well.... Likes: Rosa, Sharpening His Blades Dislikes: Any And All Belmonts The Grim Reaper himself. Death often appears in Castlevania games, and this is no exception. He holds Rosa agains't her will to be a vampire and stay with her curse. ======================================================== [5] ))))))))))))))))))) Options ((((((((((((((((((((((( ======================================================== Here are the options Castlevania offers from the start screen.

Where is Reinhardt's Second Costume? A. During the Tower of Execution, in one of the iron maidens on the third level for the Execution key. Go back down to level two and open the iron gate. Look over the ledge to see a floating platform. Inside the iron maiden is the Purple Jewel which will give you access to his second costume after finishing the game. Q. What is Reinhardt's Second Costume? A. The second costume is mostly made of the traditional Belmont outfit, with more armor but no pants *shudder*. It really does make Reinhardt look different in almost every aspect. Q. Where is Carrie's Second Costume? A. At the very top of the Tower of Sorcery, right before the exit, look outward and in the distance is a torch. Use Holy Water to guide your way on the invisible walkway. Once across you can obtain the Purple Jewel, which after finishing the game, allows Carrie 2nd Outfit to be used. Q. What is Carrie's Second Costume? A. It is like a pink Sunday school outfit, I like it much better then the original but it doesn't look like something someone would use to go kill vampires with =) Q. How can I get to the HARD Difficulty? A. Before the werewolf, there is a floating platform and a flame. Walk across to get the Green Jewel. After beating the game with any character, watching the ending, credits and save game option you can now play in HARD mode. Q. Why can't I get gold in EASY mode? A. You have unlimited gold in EASY mode. Q. How do I get a Good/Bad ending? A. If you use to many Sun/Moon cards, Charlie Vincent will have tried to reach Dracula before you. He this happens he will be bitten and then become a vampire himself. You will have to fight Charlie and then end up seeing the bad ending. Move fast enough and the good ending is yours. Q. Does Renon really fight you? A. Yes, if you spend over 30,000 in gold then Renon will fight you. Q. Can I hold more then one special weapon? A. No, you must use the last one you picked up. Q. Was this game released in Japan before? A. No, it was released in North America well before the Japanese release. Changes between the two versions such as more characters and expansion pak support are unknown at this time. Q. What happened to the other cast members? A. Due to time restraints, Konami booted both Cornel and Coller, who were to also be playable vampire hunters. Cornel used his fists and kicks to kill and also could turn into a werewolf. Coller was to carry either a chainsaw or powerful shotgun. Why they dumped either one of these characters for Carrie is well beyond me. Q. What is the code for the Goddess Statues? A. The code to align the Goddesses in the Castle Center is 2, 4 and 8 in that order. Q. What does the Engagement Ring do? A. No purpose of this item has yet been found. Sorry. ======================================================== [8] )))))))))))))))) Getting Started ((((((((((((((((((( ======================================================== From the very start you will get one of two messages. The first reads that you don't have a Controller Pak inserted and gives you the option to proceed without the save feature or the chance to re-connect your Controller Pak. A normal Pak carries 123 pages of memory, Castlevania takes up 9 pages for each save, a small amount compared to Turok 2's 70 pages and Mario Kart's insane amount of 121 pages. The Second message will read that you have a Controller Pak. Choose the option to make a Castlevania file. Once this out of the way, the Konami and KCEK logs will appear. Then on with the game... It begins with a sweeping shot of the forbidden castle (with so-so keyboard music) and then the blood red moon appears along with Malus playing the violin (EXCELLENT music here). You then get the chance to start the game or go to the options menu. Just start the game, you can change the options later. At the Data screen select Game Start. The four slots available should be empty at the moment, unless you have saved a previous time. Pick a slot and then choose your difficulty (Normal is HIGHLY recommended). *********************** WARNING WARNING ************************** CASTLEVANIA CANNOT BE COMPLETED ON EASY MODE !!! Konami has made it official, stating that the game with end on level five for if the game is set on EASY mode. I suggest not even trying it unless you are not getting a long amount of time to play this game, and if you aren't then why are you even reading this FAQ? *********************** WARNING WARNING ************************** After the this you can choose for either Reinhardt or Carrie. The pages begin to turn and reveals it to be the Necronomicon, the book of the dead (hey, The Evil Dead was educational you know). Then the narration (N64 audio is getting much better, no?) begins. The camera then centers on Schneider or Carrie in an open area. Schneider makes a sign of the cross over his heart and speaks "Courage... Don't leave me..." and Carrie makes a quick vow "Whatever awaits.. I have no regrets..". Now the game truly begins.... ======================================================== [9] ))))))))))))))) Forest Of Silence (((((((((((((((((( ======================================================== You begin with no special weapons but you do have your trusty Dagger/Rings more than enough for now. Forge ahead a bit and get ready for some cool effects (which can hurt you if you are not careful). Head past the trees (don't go to the right yet) and hit the two classic candles. You will get the knife and a large Red Jewel. If you jump upon the left pillar, hang on, pull yourself up and then look to the right pillar, you will see another candle. Time your jump and go for the candle for a Roast beef. Now go towards the right path and past the skeleton lying on the ground. Cut Scene Time! When investigating the corpse you are soon interrupted as three rotting bone dudes get up on their own!! Wow, these buggers are fast! A good two hits at the right places should finish them, just back up a little and get a cracking! Pick up any items on the ground with right C. Go upward to the gate and you will find that a seal is over it. If you want, you can walk back and see the trees once again burn down, but the candles will not hold anything new. Now jump and use your secondary weapon to hit the blue seal on the large gate till it breaks off. !!!!!!!!!!! BOSS: Silverback Skeleton !!!!!!!!!!! Once the seal breaks MOVE BACK! Didn't expect this so soon, huh? The boss carries a large club that when hit on the ground will resurrect other demon skeleton warriors. Take out some of the pests and then go in under the legs of the beast and hit it from behind. After a few hits it will retreat back behind the gate. Don't worry the Club often has a low chance of hitting you, but the boss with often move around hurting you and killing the other skeletons! Don't use you knives yet. Once you get the boss retreats for a second time one of the skeletons should leave behind a axe. Pick up the axe and go up to the boss once more. After enough hits, it will roar into the air and jump off the back cliff. Two platforms will raise and the boss will fall to the depths below, maybe to return later (if you look to the right and down, try to look for a small white object, it's the bosses head! He didn't go anywhere!). Jump across the broken "bridge". Hopefully the fight provided you with a power up so all the baddies should only take one hit to kill. At the intersection, take the left way to the gate. Check the white crystal to save. If you check the sign, I'm sure you will get a good idea of how well checking every item will help you along your quest =) Now take the right path to the small housings. Destroy the flames in both for the Sun and Moon card. To the left of the housings is a small platform, you can jump onto the housings from here and continue on the roofs to get a red jewel and a roast chicken. This place is crawling with baddies so hurry to the next broken bridge and make some heavy jumps. On the other side, take out the bats with your dagger/rings. Now hit the switch to open the gate where the save point was. !!!!!!!!!!! Mini-BOSS: WereTiger !!!!!!!!!!! The bridge is out and there is a big stripped baddie! This guy does his best Terminator parody by walking slowly around and then hitting you swiftly. Just hit him from a distance and use the middle pillar as defense. After about two fully charged blasts or seven cracks from the whip, he should burn to death. Now go back and through the gate. Notice if you stay in the middle of the bridge, the skeletons will jump over to get you! On the way you will encounter explosive skeletons and bone throwing skeletons, but they go down quickly too. To the right of the now open gate is a torch with a helpful power up. Now jump atop the pillar in the center and hit the torch for the cross, a powerful special weapon. Check around the bottom of the pillar for a roast. In the back you can see a large ravine, just before the cliff is a odd stone. Duck and hit it with your dagger/rings to reveal 2500 gold! Beyond is another save point and a tomb. Don't bother trying tomb, it only offers minimal items and leaves you open to attacks, plus it can be hard to jump up on. To the far right is another out bridge. Jump over and hit the torch for a roast beef, then hit the switch for the other gate to open. No mini- boss this time, but HURRY and jump onto the lowering bridge and then jump over to the cliff. It is very difficult to climb from the very bottom. Yes, the water can and will drown you. Now pass through the gate and if you wish, the torch to the right has the axe, but the cross is actually a bit better. Check the three tombs for some more health. Beyond, try to kill the bone boy from afar, jump over and the look to the left. Here you can see a floating platform and a torch. Simply walk over to it, the walkway is invisible. Here you get the Green Jewel (Special1) which is used to get HARD mode. Jump across once more to the other side. Now prepare for a group of vampire bats to fly out. Once they have been swatted down, hit the rock to the left of the entrance to get a power-up, Roast Chicken and some money. Onward you will face a werewolf and the bone heads. Use your crosses on the wolf, jump above his dashes, remember to have the camera in battle view, stay in the clearing not the center and try to use the save point to the right just in case. Check around the statue in the middle for a roast and the tomb holds a sun card. Continue on and once at the corpse-on-a-stick stand, use the narrow steps to go down to the lever. The gate by the three tombs is now open so return. This part is TRICKY, getting the hang on method is a matter of skill. Just keep practicing with the other ledges before you go down. Once back at the gate, hit the red torch to get a roast and hit the last lever. Now go back to the werewolf area and through the final gate. !!!!!!!!!!! BOSS: Silverback Skeleton !!!!!!!!!!! Round 2 !! This time, expect a fight to the death. The beginning is the hardest. He will lure you into a ring of motorcycle riding skeletons (.......) and then make some very long sweep attacks. Going under him is not as easy, and more skeletons rise all the time. Special weapons are near to worthless here so just stick to the whip/blasts. Make sure to be carrying some extra supplies to revive your health. The boss will retreat, so head up to him, let him swing will you are running around him in circles and jump when the club comes close. Then he is all yours, the arm comes of then the bottom half and the he will crawl almost helplessly on the ground, finish him off and exit. Now you face the massive drawbridge as it folds down, after entering, it rises back up, trapping you inside... ======================================================== [10] ))))))))))))))) Castle Wall (((((((((((((((((( ======================================================== First off I just want to say this is one of my least favorite levels. With that out of the way, lets move on. After the gate closes behind you, save at the white crystal and open the door to the right (the other is locked at the moment). Here you must trek up the winding staircase of death. Begin upward and jump across the gap. Now you will face the dreaded Bone Pillar. Do your best to use special weapons here and don't get too close, you don't want to end up like a roasted marshmallow. Jump on the moving platform and onto the next set or jump down to the lower ledge for a sun card. Defeat the pillar and time your jump to the platform, staying clear of the edge and the bloody guillotines. A bat or Medusa head often comes out of no where and knocks you out of the sky, so try to stay to the right here. At the next jump, get on the platform and make a leap to the other side. The guillotine should not be able to hit you since you will probley come up short. After another set of the blades and jumps, swat down the four bats and then you will come upon and door. Enter and prepare for !!!!!!!!!!! Mini-BOSS: White Dragon Twins !!!!!!!!!!! The twins can be difficult, so try to have some reserve energy in hand. Try to run to the outside of the wall and lure one away from the other, make sure both are not facing you. Once it spits the flame out, move and then stop and then swat away, if you get the chance to pick up any holy water here is the place to use it. Sooner or later one will burn to a black crisp form. Once in black form, it will fire a long stream of blue flames that is often hard to miss. Repeat this process and if needed, use the stone entrance for cover. Later, jump up on the side (not the small broken part) of the entrance to grab on and pull yourself up to the torch with the roast inside. Now go to the center of the room and pull the switch. After the gate is lowered, look down and check for the platform with the save crystal. Fall down and save as you see fit, but beware the skeletons, they come back sooner then normal. Whack the small pillar in the middle for a powerup and many red jewels. On the lower platform is a waiting bone pillar and a slew of skeletons. Hit the torch for the moon card and drop down to the final level. Go back by the shelf, jump up and grab the powerup. In one of the corners is a crack, fall down it and you will be back at the very beginning. Go inside the new place and hit the center torch for the Red Left Tower Key. This tower is worse then the first! make the first jumps then climb the staircase. Careful around the solid walkway, it will soon break in two so move back or jump forward quickly. Next beware of incoming bats and try to go just beyond the blade so your jump can be pulled off at the desired time. The rotating spikes mean serious damage and often death. The next set involves a pillar, and 4 rotating spikes. When the 2nd and 4th spikes are safe, that is the time to go, careful of the blade at the end. Make the steep jump on the stairs and whip back the pillar and it's flames. Things are getting complicated but you are almost done here. Time your jumps on the next spikes and RUN when on the next set of "stairs". Make a few short jumps and try to take out the pillar early so it will not interfere. At the top is a moon crested door. If needed, you may use a moon card at your will. For all your hard work you will receive an excellent cut scene with the big man himself DRACULA. I must say, the voice acting is suited well for this game. After the taunting, go back to the brick entrance and hit the pillar in the back with your dagger/rings for 2500 gold again! Jump upon the entrance (you will hang on and climb up) to save and get a roast. Now carefully make your way back down to the very beginning and enter through the now opened gate. ======================================================== [11] ))))))))))))))))))) Villa ((((((((((((((((((((((( ======================================================== This music is starting to grow on me. After the quick cut scene it is back to business with the hell hounds. The cross works wonders here and holy water is also effective. Once the three dogs are slain the first gate will open, two other doggies will jump out and freely use the fire attack. After the slaying of these comes the final blood hound. Nice effects here, eh? Move toward the gate and pick up the roast, then carefully slay the dog, making sure it is always in your site. If you wish, return to the beginning and jump around the right torch for more red jewels on an invisible ledge. In the next area, be aware of the time. At midnight the platform in the fountain will rise and allow access to the items above. Save with the crystal to the right and beware the Lost Souls and Lost Specters. To the right of the gate is a grave cross, whack it for a powerup. Beyond the save crystal is also a cross, hit it for a roast. Once you are done |
