Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

It is 4 years after the last appearance of Castlevania and the world is again beset by the evil Dracula and his vile minions! Castlevania is back and only Alucard, the very son of Dracula himself, can meet the challenge. Wielding dagger, sword, ax, or magical artifact, Alucard must navigate the treacherous castle compound. Battle hoards of zombies, bats, witches, and death knights. Gather hearts to increase Alucard's power in preparation for the final battle - a duel to death between father and son!
