Included in the collection are Castlevania Legends, TwinBee, Goemon’s Great Adventure, Parodius Da!, Dracula X: Rondo of Blood, Akumajou Special: Boku Dracula-kun (known as Kid Dracula in North America), Quarth and Penguin Adventure.
Castlevania Legends is a side-scrolling action game first released on the Game Boy in 1997.
Players take control of Sonia Belmont, the first female member of the Belmont clan who must explore seven levels filled with monsters and traps while searching for Count Dracula's castle.
The Game Boy Color version featured updated graphics and new items such as power-ups that could be found throughout each level.
In addition to Sonia Belmont, two other playable characters – Reinhardt Schneider and Death – were added to the game, giving players more freedom to choose how they would approach each level.
TwinBee is an overhead shooter game originally released for arcades in 1985 before being ported to various consoles including the NES and Super Famicom.
The Game Boy Color version includes ten stages that can be completed in any order with three difficulty settings available for each stage.
Players must shoot down enemies using their ship's weapons while avoiding obstacles such as walls or lava pits which can cause instant death if touched.
Power-ups can also be collected throughout each stage which will enhance a player's ship with additional speed or firepower.
Goemon’s Great Adventure is an action-adventure game originally released for the Super Famicom in 1999 before being ported to various other systems including the Nintendo 64 and PlayStation 2.
In this game, players take control of Goemon who must explore a large open world filled with enemies and puzzles while trying to save his friends from danger.
The gameplay consists largely of puzzle solving as well as combat against foes encountered during exploration; there are also mini-games scattered throughout which can be accessed at certain points during play for extra rewards or bonuses.
The Game Boy Color version featured updated graphics and sound effects along with some minor changes made to certain areas within each level.
Parodius Da! is a side-scrolling shooter game first released for arcades in 1988 before being ported to various home consoles including the MSX2 and Super Famicom.
This humorous entry into Konami’s Parodius series features bright cartoonish graphics along with silly music tracks that make it stand out from other shooters at the time; it also includes several unique power-ups which allow players to transform their ships into different forms such as cars or airplanes depending on what type of enemy they are facing at any given moment during play.
The Game Boy Color version features improved graphics compared to its original arcade release while retaining all of its original content intact; it also includes an exclusive secret stage that can only be unlocked after completing certain requirements within each level prior to accessing it Dracula X: Rondo Of Blood is a side-scrolling action platformer set within Castlevania's universe originally released for PC Engine CD in 1993 before being ported to other systems including SNES and PSP; its story follows Richter Belmont who must travel through nine levels filled with monsters while attempting to rescue his beloved Annette Renard from Count Dracula’s clutches before she becomes one of his brides forevermore! This port features improved visuals compared to its original release along with some minor changes made to certain elements such as enemy placement across each level; it also includes a hidden bonus stage accessible by finding specific items throughout play which gives players access to powerful weapons not found anywhere else within this title Akumajou Special: Boku Dracula Kun (known as Kid Dracula outside Japan) is an action platformer originally released on Famicom Disk System back in 1990 before being ported onto various platforms over time including GBC; like most Castlevania titles at this point it focuses heavily on exploration where players must traverse through multiple levels filled with monsters while collecting items necessary for progression such as keys or tools needed for unlocking doors blocking their path ahead towards further stages deeper into Count Dracula’s castle! This port features enhanced visuals along with some minor changes made here & there across different areas but retains all its original content intact so fans will still feel right at home playing this classic Quarth is an overhead shooter game first released on MSX2 back in 1989 before being ported onto many other systems including GBC; unlike traditional shooters where players move their ship around using directional buttons this game requires them instead use two buttons located on either side (A & B) which control both left & right movements respectively making it quite unique amongst its peers! As expected from any shooter title power ups can be found scattered around stages allowing users better chances against waves upon waves incoming enemies coming after them during playtime Penguin Adventure is an adventure RPG featuring cutesy 8-bit visuals & music first released on MSX2 back 1986 before eventually arriving onto GBC years later; this port contains all content present within its original counterpart albeit slightly modified here & there due main hardware differences between both platforms but nonetheless fans should still feel right at home playing this classic once again!
