551.1 | Electronics Boutique had it for 41.99 | CLUSTA::EFRANK | | Mon Nov 19 1990 12:22 | 10 |
|
I got it last week for this price..
Seems like the first one. Graphics are excellent. It says in the instructions
that you can set your background music, I tried what they said but could not
get it to work...did anyone else have this problem...
thanks,
eric

| Hi Eric
Are you still playing this game? How does it compared to the first one?
(too similar, better, not as good??) Are the graphics better?
Anyone else playing it?
Thanks, Pam

551.3 | very good but tough in sections | CROW::EFRANK | | Wed Dec 12 1990 12:45 | 9 |

I have been playing for a while now and it is a tough game but each stage is
do-able. One stage took me about 50 tries but when I finally did it, it was
a great accomplishment :-). The graphics are great on this game and the fact
that you can choose a different character makes it more interesting then
the previous ones in my opinion.

551.4 | Whats III like? | CSS::JAFFE | | Tue Dec 18 1990 12:54 | 2 |
| I enjoyed CV II but not I. Is III more of an RPG like II or an action
game (SMB style) like I?
|
551.5 | It's like I | SHAOLN::DENSMORE | Dirty deeds & they're done dirt cheap | Thu Dec 20 1990 12:33 | 8 |
| III is I with alternate paths to follow to the Count rather than a single
path. You also can "meet" various characters like Dracula's son who will
accompany you. We rented this one last week and I thought it was pretty
good. We didn't get far enough for me to give many details.

PS. It also has passwords.

| I got this game for Christmas and love it. The graphics are great
and it has great tension music. It's kind of like a scary SMB.
So far, I'm up to stage 5-4 (out of 17 stages?). Took about 3 hours
to get through the first half of stage 5 and get Dracula's son Allucard
to join forces with me.

551.7 | First half ? | TROC01::WALDNER | Frank Waldner DTN 637-3433 | Mon Jan 14 1991 12:21 | 9 |
| My son got this game for Christmas and has been playing it solid
for three weeks. He went thru levels 1-6 (I'm not sure if there
was a level 7) and then he was playing level "A" ??!! Once he beat
level A there was the usual soft music and romatic ending with a
graphic of the castle sinking in the distance.
Then the game had a new password and a bunch of much more agressive
baddies. We're not sure if this is the first level of the second
half or not?? Anyone know?

551.8 | SPOILER!!!!!!! | POETS::SCHNARE | CHARLIE SCHNARE | Mon Jan 14 1991 20:22 | 56 |
| SPOILER!!!
When you first type in your characters name type in HELP ME. And as it
says,it helps out alot.
|
551.9 | That was published! | TROC01::WALDNER | Frank Waldner DTN 637-3433 | Wed Jan 16 1991 12:11 | 2 |
| That was published in a recent copy of Nintendo Power!! It gives
you 10 lives instead of 3 each time you start or continue.

551.10 | Missing something simple | REGENT::SNOW | | Mon Mar 11 1991 15:40 | 1 |
| How do you invoke Allucard's ability to fly as a bat?
|
551.11 | Great Game | NEST::PAPIA | | Tue Mar 12 1991 09:20 | 4 |

Press the down arrow and the B button at the same time.

551.12 | I love this game!! | EXPRES::FENDELANDER | | Tue Mar 26 1991 23:47 | 14 |
| I love this game but I seem to be stuck. I am at a point where I cant
pass. There are two mummies(?) that form out of what looks like
electricity. I came upon these in a previous level and I could kill
them with a weapon or whip or somthing that I had. But now I cant kill
them no matter how many times I try. I cant remember the level Im at
but I think it is 5. I have the guy that turns into a bat. When I turn
him into a bat I still cant make it past the Electric mummies or
whatever they are! I tried to run right by them but these bats come
after me and the two bricks that I'm standing on melt away and I get
killed. I'm not looking for a spoiler but if anyone might be able to
give me a hint I'd appreciate it!

| This game is great. I'm on level 7-6 and haven't come across any
electric mummies. Either it's because I took a different path or
you are higher than level 5.

551.14 | Finally made it! | EXPRES::FENDELANDER | | Wed Mar 27 1991 16:04 | 13 |
| Well I got past the point I was stuck at. I just ran by everything,
took a few hits but I got past! Now I'm at level six (at least thats
the number in the corner of the screen). There are swamp people that
jump out of the water at me and I fell into the water and died a few
times. I am wondering if this is the same level (place) the you are.
It takes me about 10 mins to try to decide which path to take.
I work 2nd shift so when I get home there is nobody to bother me.
The only bad thing about that is that its real easy to stay up till
3:00 AM, not good when you have a two year old that gets up early.
It is a lot of fun in the swamp, you have to turn into the bat alot to
get by. WEll I have to go now will update later....

551.16 | Need help with Routes 8,10,12 | WBC::DOERING | DTN 425-3216 Wash BM Center | Mon Apr 01 1991 19:11 | 24 |
|
Entering this for my father-in-law (who seems to be having more
problems with this one than the other):
==========================
What is the "pattern" of movement by the two water dragons at the end
of route 8 ?? How do yo position yourself to get them from behind ??
Also
Have not been able to complete routes 10 & 12 either. Have gotten to
the end of 10 a few times, but always get wiped out by the bone dragon.
Any help at all on 10 & 12 would be appreciated.
============================
I know he's using the HELPME feature that was previously mention.
Thanks, Reply here, phone or VAXMail
