The Castlevania saga takes a new twist with Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. One hundred years have passed and Dracula's legendary castle is reappearing. For centuries, the Belmont family has tried to destroy Dracula, but have failed. Now the only person who can end Dracula's reign of terror is his son, Alucard. Take control of Alucard as he hacks and whips through the monsters that occupy the castle. Although the main character is not a Belmont, much of the classic Castlevania gameplay returns. Alucard must collect hearts to use special weapons, including a clock that freezes time, and holy water that burns the monsters that it hits.
