Leaping back over the drawbridge of doom and into the castle of mystery, we dance a do-si-do to the Rondo of Blood. Leon, Leah, Michiel, Rich(ter) and community contributors analyse and review the appeal of this cult, hipster classic, as well as taking a glance at the game's ports, conversions, rereleases and remakes in our latest Akumajo Dracula show - our Castlevania: Rondo of Blood issue.

Music featured in this issue:1. Overture (Introduction) by Akira Souji/Keizo Nakamura/Tomoko Sano/Mikio Saito2. March of the holy men by Akira Souji/Keizo Nakamura/Tomoko Sano/Mikio SaitoEdited by Jay Taylor

Only just managed to finish listening to this show - not a reflection on the show, just my own circumstance! Another great Castlevania show, thanks all - and I had no idea Dracula X was included on the Advance collection from Konami. Whilst the game was never particularly well liked, from what I can gather, a fourth game certainly makes the package more value for money. I've had it on my wishlist for ages, might have to pick it up soon.

I had not realized either that Dracula X was on the Advance Collection! I took a break from Circle of Moon to give that one a go before the show − and bounced off this one as hard as Richter Belmont when hit by an enemy. While I’m really enjoying my time with Circle of the Moon (and I expect I will with the other two Advance games), I think this style is really not for me anymore (and if I must go through an other old-style Castlevania I’d rather try a bit harder at Super Castlevania IV. Now, onto listening to the show!

I finally got around to playing through Rondo, even though I've had a copy of the original for a quarter century now. I absolutely LOVED it! Not only because of its presentation, but mostly because, through all of my many, many deaths, I always felt I was getting better until initially "impossible" stages were mastered. One of my favorites of 2026 so far. On the show you asked, why there was so much German language in the game. I don't know if this is the reason, but if we're being historically accurate, it should be a mix of German, Hungarian and Romanian, as that was the mix of languages (in roughly equal measure) in historical Transylvania from the 1100s up until the end of World War II. Since then, and especially since the 1990's, the proportion of German-language speakers has declined dramatically, although they still hold mayorships in some larger towns. The Hungarian decline has been less dramatic and that language still clearly dominates in many parts of the region. I know this message is super-late and may not be seen, but maybe it clears some things up. :)
