Castlevania II: Simon's Quest/YMMV: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* [[Anticlimax Boss]]: Dracula.

* [[Critical Research Failure]]: Everyone in the world who has bashed this game (and even people on this very page!) uses [[Guide Dang It]] as the main (or one of the main) criticisms, but in actual fact there isn't ''one single puzzle in the entire game'' for which there isn't some kind of clue, however cryptically worded, from either the "scriptures" (hidden red books) or the townsfolk, whom [[All There in the Manual|the manual itself tells you]] are sometimes liars. Speaking of which, more often than not when they lie it's obvious due to their words being either a blatant joke or a reference to something that's impossible by the game's mechanics (finding a flame on top of trees, shouting in front of a church, etc.).

* [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: "TAKE MY DAUGHTER, PLEASE!!"

* [[Game Breaker]]: The Golden Knife. Although it's prohibitively expensive to use to just mow down everything in your path, it's powerful enough to render any enemy - including Dracula - harmless.

* [[Memetic Mutation]]: WHAT A HORRIBLE NIGHT TO HAVE A CURSE.

* [[Most Annoying Sound]]: By the end of the game, the beeping that accompanies dialogue is probably gonna be ingrained in your head--WHAT A HORRIBLE NIGHT TO HAVE A CURSE--in a bad way.

* [[Scrappy Mechanic]]: There is no way to speed up the text box marking the change from day to night and back. And you'll be seeing it a ''lot''.
