Castlevania II: Belmont's Revenge

Looks like Drac's
back in town

Something immortal is lurking in the mountains above Transylvania. the Prince of Darkness has formed a monolith of unspeakable horror in the second ghastly adventure, Castlevania II -- Belmont's Revenge(tm). Four towering castles ridden with hideous creatures that would even make the mightiest of warriors cower in fear.

Nevertheless, Christopher Belmont must set out to face mobile brain matter, undead assassins, and the Iron Doll in the Stone Castle. Ghastly forces like Kumlo & Nimbler and flesh feeding jellyfish slither through the Cloud Castle. The Plant Castle is the horrific home of Angel Mummy, carnivorous Wolf Spiders and other slimy swamp mutants. And an unspeakable array of acid spewing snake heads and moat monsters lurk in the Crystal Castle. It's crucial that you find power up items to attain battle axes and holy water, your only hope against this underworld army.

So grab your Mystic Whip and say your good-byes. Darkness will soon be upon you.
