If you change the number of lives you start with, does that cause the cheevos not to work?

I thought this game would be much easier than other Castlevania games. I was wrong.

I love games that give you a full multi segmented health bar and decide to make you lose a full third of it from getting hit once anyway.
IzaNamiZX 19 Jul 2023 02:54
Mastered! Great game. The difficulty was just right; hard set of challenges, but worth the points, and by the end of it you FEEL like a vampire slayer.

This set is a bit more manageable than CV3 for the NES, so if you can do that one, you should be able to take on this one.
thatoneguy1851 18 Sep 2023 13:53
25th master. Again, shadowserg’s youtube videos are very helpful here for the Castlevania related stuff regarding boss battles. Can’t recommend it enough. I had to use level codes on some of these in order to redo challenges until I got them (vgmuseum’s castlevania section is a good place for these, and ign for SCIV’s ones). Expert wasn’t that difficult, but SCIV’s No Death Run was much harder lol.
salohp 12 Dec 2023 00:37
For some reason some cheevos wont appeared when I beat the game as John so I beat it twice with him, and again with Eric, but overall it's such an awesome game, It's one of my favorites if not my favorite Castlevania I've played so far, oh man I love this franchise.
GermanWerleck 25 Feb 2024 14:18
Successfully mastered! Another game that I played as a child and it's incredible how almost everything that asks for achievements are things that I always did naturally lol

Masterizado com sucesso! Mais um jogo que eu jogava quando criança, e incrivel como quase tudo que pede nas conquistas são coisas que eu sempre fazia naturalmente rsrs

Very nice set! Great game needs good achievements! Thank you :)

Mastered! It's the best CV I've ever played.

I loved this set. I don't come to RetroAchievements to just beat a game. I want to feel like I've mastered it. This set forced me to learn this game inside and out. Perfect.

platinado! que castlevania bom cara, nem parece que é de mega drive. Obrigado pelo set

In my top 3 Castlevania games. Love this game and can play it over and over again. Really solid set, but there are a couple of achievements that are oddly specific and bit much.
untilde 15 Sep 2024 08:06
Great game for what it is, but the difficulty is as unforgiving as I remember it. Some fall deaths are extremely frustrating.
