Game Challenge Community Game Challenge - Halloween 2021 | October 15th-November 1st

I never played any castlevania before, were all games like this where you got few lives then if you're dead and out of lives you're back to the beginning of the level without save point.

It could be worse, some games would send you back to the start of the game, Castlevania wasn't that punishing at least lol. Definitely a better experience with save states these days for the pre-SotN games though for sure.

Eternal Darkness has been good fun and is surprisingly breezy. I remember having trouble with it when I was younger but this is much more straightforward than most survival horror titles. Confident I'll be on to another game before long.

I'd forgotten a lot more than I realized, including most of the ways the game has fun with you.

Spoiler

I think I enjoy the subtler, eerie effects more though.

I've always wanted try Eternal Darkness. It looks really cool! Also, I know one level is based on the Amiens Cathedral, and I used to live in Amiens ahahah. It intrigues me.

I found Rondo to be one of the more difficult ones in my series playthrough so far tbh. SotN is a lot more forgiving though.

Rondo was quiet difficult sometimes but I think the most difficult I did was Castlevania III. Damn, some stages were absolute nightmare in my memory. I remember one stage at the end of the first game being fucking hard too.

Finished Dread yesterday so I should be able to do a quick horror game for the challenge. Now I just have to decide which one. Really too bad that Fatal Frame doesn't come out until Halloween weekend itself.

Finally Rondo of Blood finished

This is my first Castlevania game, thanks to this thread i finally give a try.
Some of the bosses are really hard, like the stage 5 Death it took me 2 hours, and the final bosses first phase i can beat him without any damage, but the second phase its feels really not fair >.> funny thing is this run i already giving up after getting hit by first phase but i'll just keep going to practice the second one, and then somehow i beat him .
Next probably i'll try SOTN or the Resident Evil Remake, somehow i never beat that game too.

Damn it, I just beat Circle of the Moon and Harmony of Dissonance right before seeing this!

Guess I'll try to beat RE3 and Aria of Sorrow during this challenge (maybe Luigi's Mansion 3 too?)

Both finished:

Aria of Sorrow

Dracula X

Going through Resident Evil REmake (Origins Collection) on my PS4 at the moment. Also playing it on hard mode so I'll be able to knock out two birds with one stone. This game is still a masterpiece and looks amazing to this day. Just got to the Guardhouse Residence and ready to kick some plant butt.

Finally finished my run in AoS, 100% map, but not all souls.

Following our talks with @Bulletbill10 , I'm giving Castlevania The Adventure another chance. And, well, I'm happy about doing it because I think the game is cool, actually. When I tried it the first time, I just finished great games in the series, like, Rondo of Blood. So obviously it was a shock. Now I didn't play Castlevania in months, the game is far more enjoyable and is in my opinion good. I did the first 2 stages, now it's time for the 2 others!
