About this game
Dracula’s son wakes to find his domain taken by Garamoth and sets out to confront him. Jump across the route, climb ladders and fire magic projectiles at enemies. Holding the attack button builds a charge, shown by an indicator, before releasing a stronger spell. Defeating stage bosses adds charged magic types such as homing or explosive attacks, selected with Select. Enemies defeated by charged shots can leave coins used to enter sub-games between stages. These connect the fighting with another opportunity between encounters.
