    Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

    Game » consists of 20 releases. Released Mar 20, 1997

    Dracula's castle has risen from the mist and the Belmont heir is missing! The open-ended gameplay mixed with RPG mechanics in this installment of Castlevania platformers set the template for later games in the series (coining the term "Metroidvania").

    i have a question.

    I think people just like the swoosh sound when he does the backslide.

    I don't make him moonwalk. Mainly because I played a couple Castlevania's on the DS first, and the backward dash is L in those, whereas it's triangle or something in the original, so I always forget to use it.
