DC Live! Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse, part 2
The countryside traveled, I now lay siege to Dracula’s fortress.
Two years ago, as part of our guilt-induced SNES coverage, I bested Super Castlevania IV for the first time. Last year, I cemented the tradition by defeating its 8-bit demake by way of temporal paradox, Castlevania for the first time as well.
October has come again, and with it another Castlevania game I never beat has entered the ring (pentacle?) to be conquered. Dracula’s Curse is the penultimate unbeaten 2D Castlevania game for this feature; we still have Castlevania Chronicles to do next year, but after that I have to come up with a new idea.
And no, Dracula XX doesn’t count because I did beat Rondo of Blood. And what nonsense are you talking about now? There’s no Castlevanias on the original Game Boy.
Get a glimpse of what’s at stake for Dracula on the blog’s Twitch channel at 8 p.m. Eastern.
At some point, a recording of this stream will be up on Damage Control’s YouTube channel and embedded below.
