Castlevania Chronicles

Dread and tension

You take on Dracula's estate as Simon Belmont, lashing your whip through classic gothic stages alone against the resurrected Count and his minions. Precise jumps, sub-weapons and unforgiving enemy placement make every mistake count.

Castlevania: Rondo of Blood

Dread and tension

A classic, demanding Castlevania action platformer where you whip your way through Dracula's domain as Richter Belmont. Hidden routes, the rescuable Maria as a playable character and a superb soundtrack make it a cult favourite.

Akuji the Heartless

Fantasy setting

A dark 3D action-adventure where you play a betrayed voodoo priest fighting, jumping and solving small puzzles through the underworld to reclaim his heart. It blends melee combat with platforming in a voodoo-flavored atmosphere.

BloodRayne: Betrayal

Challenging difficulty

A brutal 2D hack-and-slash platformer with detailed HD sprites, gory combat and a steep difficulty curve. You play the dhampir Rayne, carving through a gothic world with precise melee and jumping challenges.

Momodora III

Fantasy setting

A classic 2D pixel-art action platformer where you play the priestess Momo through mostly linear levels, collecting items and uncovering secrets. It relies on quick dodging and tough boss fights, and you don't need to know the earlier games.

Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles

Fantasy setting

You get a fresh 3D take on the cult Rondo of Blood, with fluid whip combat, demanding jumps and gothic horror atmosphere. Unlockable classics like Symphony of the Night make the trip through Dracula's castle even more rewarding.
