Dracula X - Rondo of
Blood was released in 1993 for
the PC-Engine Super CD-Rom. The game never made it to US shores, because NEC of
America had very poor marketing skills. What a shame too, because this is arguably
the best true Castlevania game in the whole series. The only games that even come
close to touching it is Symphony Of The Night (PlayStation) and Nocturne In The Moonlight
(Saturn). But both of these games can't be considered "true" Castlevania
games, due to their gameplay. They play more like Metroid than Castlevania.
It's a pretty much standard Castlevania game. You start out as Richter, then later
you can be Maria (if you can find her). It has all the standard special weapons like
the dagger, axe, and such. But there's more to it. I don't want to tell you
much about the game, since I don't want to ruin it for you. Trust me, this game is
worth the download time if you're a true Castlevania fan.
This game is one of the most sought after game in history. The only PC Engine game
that's more sought after than this game is Sapphire. Back in 1993 when it came out,
the game sold for the retail price of about $60. Nowadays, I see people trying to
auction it off on places like e-bay for an outrageous amount like $125!! Sure the
game is good and all, but it's NOT worth $125! Plus, it's fairly hard to get ahold
of this game. If you ever see it for a decent price, you should get it on the
spot! But anyway, that's two of the main reason why I posted this game up.
 


Clicking on any of these pictures will
get you the scans of the front,
inside, back, and CD of the game to make your own cover. All
the
scans are included in the zip file no matter which picture you click on.
Below are the files for the FULL game ISO. You must use
Alcohol 120% to burn it. This was ripped directly from the original, legit Japanese
release. All files are verified to be 100% correct. Please don't email about
how to burn it, or dumb questions like that. If you can't figure out something as
simple as burning this game, then you don't deserve to even be playing it. You MUST
download ALL the files first, then unrar it using WinRAR. The PAR files are there to
fix any corrupted files. I recommend using Quick PAR for them. Now without
further adieu...
