Game Play-Through

Lab Work – Super Castlevania Video – Castelvania IV Coverage
Dive into the Super Castlevania IV Video, a 1994 Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) epic adventure.
Quick Take
Gamestop or Ebay classic game choice, pick up any of the Castlevania games in the series (regardless of console). Simon Belmont vs Dracula, like Tom and Jerry, Batman and The Joke, classic good vs evil game. This game is truly an epic, genre defining game. Remaining relevant today for you gamers out there. Specifically, those that enjoy Metroid-vania style games. Including these titles: The Last Faith, Blasphemous I, II and more.
Furthermore, a great follow up to the NES/Game Boy series games: NES – Castlevania I, II, III GB – Castlevania I, II. There were a few arcade games I never got the chance to play in the arcade, which is a bummer… So, for reference there is a huge jump between GB Castlevania II and SNES Super Castlevania IV and Dark Souls for example.
The Castlevania Series
Those of you who are new to the Castlevania series, or new title, be prepared for an adventure. The goal is taking down Dracula and his minions. Do so, be agile, climb, jump, dispatch enemies quickly and solve puzzles. The games ‘in series’ are fairly quick to play/playthrough. The older games, in my opinion are a little less forgiving unless you’ve built up a toolkit on ‘how to solve’ the enemy ‘ai’ (enemy IQ, or artificial intelligence).
Additionally, my two cents, like the Mario (watch any early SNES/NES even PS or XBox speed-run, this will help to show specifically enemy IQ or ai), most of the early games have patterns and similar enemy IQ, just find the pattern and dispatch of the enemies accordingly.
Next, thanks for the coverage @lordkayoss, love the video and voice over, this was one of the first games I completed back in 1994 or 1995. In any case, check out the Lordkayoss playlist on
