Kid Dracula (悪魔城すぺしゃるぼくドラキュラくん, Akumajō Supesharu: Boku Dorakyura-kun, Demon Castle Special: Kid Dracula") is a comical gothic-themed platform game video game, and a spinoff to Castlevania. It is a remake and sequel to the 1990 Famicom game Akumajō Special: Boku Dracula-kun^[2] (悪魔城すぺしゃるぼくドラキュラくん, literally "Demon Castle Special: Kid Dracula"). Konami released the title for the Game Boy in 1993 in Japan and North America.

Plot[]

This game is a sequel to the events of the original Kid Dracula. Galamoth (called Garamoth in the game) has returned and it is up to Kid Dracula to stop him once again. However, he seems to have forgotten most of his spells. Also, many of his minions have turned against him and joined Galamoth. Death remains by his side however, and gives him tips and heirlooms from his father, Dracula, along the way.

Audio[]

The main musical theme is adapted from Claude Debussy's Golliwogg's Cakewalk.^{[citation needed]}
