Story
Set in medieval Transylvania, several hundred years have passed since legendary hero Simon Belmont defeated the evil Count Dracula and sealed him away for what was supposed to be eternity. The people have long since forgotten about the horror of the undead, allowing a few depraved individuals to revive the Count; sleeping in his coffin by day and preying upon helpless victims by night. Dracula plots revenge on Simon's bloodline by attempting to murder Richter Belmont, Simon's descendant. He does this by kidnapping Richter's girlfriend Annet, and Annet's little sister Maria , imprisoning them in his castle, and waiting for Richter to attempt a rescue. Once Richter discovers Annet and Maria have been kidnapped, he takes his ancestor's sacred whip , passed down through generations, and sets out for Dracula's castle to rescue Annet and Maria, and to seal away the evil Count for good.
Gameplay Systems
The gameplay follows that of previous Castlevania games, and is near identical to that of Rondo of Blood . The Super NES release features branching paths through the levels, like the PC Engine game, but has fewer levels. Also, whereas Rondo of Blood has game saves and the ability to play as Maria Renard after she is rescued, Dracula X uses passwords and does not feature any additional playable characters. Unlike Rondo , however, Dracula X features three different endings, depending on whether the player rescues Richter's girlfriend Annet and her sister Maria, just Maria, or neither of the two, who have both been imprisoned in Dracula's castle.
