Video game players who want some thrill with action and adventure often play this game as it offers all. Developed by Konami, this game was launched in 1998. In this game, your gameplay character is Simon, whose primary goal is to defeat Dracula and rescue his wife. The game's story follows as Dracula abducts the newly wedded wife of Simon and keeps her in his haunted castle. Dracula is also a threat to the Belmont clan, which provides further motivation for Simon to defeat Dracula and end his dark rule. You would witness many new advancements and changes in the game's surroundings from the game's previous versions.

 

There are a total of six stages in this game that you must pass through and accomplish various objectives in those stages to move ahead. The primary weapon of your gameplay character is a whip with which you can harm and defeat your enemies. There are various enemies in the game, consisting of mermen, skeletons, zombies, and hunchbacks. As you defeat a certain number of enemies in the game, you can side by side upgrade your weapon. The whip can be upgraded to a spike morning star and finally to a sword; each weapon is more effective than the previous. 

 

Also, there is a wide variety of sub-weapons in the game you can use, such as boomerangs, torches, crosses, bombs, stopwatches, etc.

This game has been primarily viewed in a negative light by most of the players and critics. Many critics have opposed the game's difficulty level, which is highly unfair when facing certain enemies. For example, a skeleton's bone can instantly kill you with only two hits, whereas you require many hits to knock down a skeleton. Players have also criticized the lack of room for Simon to move and attack when the sprites arrive.
