Castlevania - Circle of the Moon

In 1830, vampire hunter Nathan Graves rescues his mentor Morris Baldwin from Dracula's resurrection in the ancient Austrian castle. Hugh Baldwin, Nathan's rival and Morris's son, is jealous and becomes possessed by Dracula. Nathan uses the powerful Hunter Whip and explores the huge castle nonlinearly. The story follows Nathan saving his mentor and friend Hugh while defeating Dracula and his minions like Camilla. Gameplay features classic Castlevania exploration with the DSS (Dual Set-Up System) introduced here: combine Action Cards (Roman gods) and Attribute Cards (mythological beasts) for effects like health recovery or elemental whip properties. Game modes include a new-game-plus replay, secret endings, and hidden areas accessible via map completion.
