WHAT MAKES SUPER CASTLEVANIA IV’S BOSS CREATURES SO GOOD?

The Castlevania series has always had some exceptional boss battles over the years, but the ones found in Super Castlevania IV have clearly left a big impression on us. Simon Belmont faces a number of exotic fiends on his way to Dracula’s castle and the power of Nintendo’s 16-bit console meant that they leave a far bigger impression that the mayors from the earlier NES games. You’ll battle everything from a nightmarish skeletal head with a disgustingly ugly tongue to an impressive Mode 7 rock Golem that shrinks in size under the strength of your whip attacks. And let’s not forget the dark lord himself who awaits you at the game’s end.
