*HOW TO PLAY
Castlevania can be played by one player. The player must use Control
(1). The object is to move through the passages and stairways of the castle to
reach the tower, dodging or destroying every creature in your path. Use the
control, as directed to activate your Magic Whip and the other weapons you'll
find along the way. And watch for secret doors! To begin, hit the START button,
and your nightmare begins.
*CONTROLS
Control Pad-controls forward and backward movement, standing and
crouching, angle of jump, direction of attack.
Start Button-begins game, pauses action during game.
Button A- Controls jumping.
Button B-Controls whip and all weapons.
