In 1997, the Castlevania franchise decided to try the whole Simon's Quest approach again, and the end result is Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (also known as Nocturne in the Moonlight overseas). Richter Belmont has disappeared, causing a slumbering Alucard to awaken and explore the newly resurrected Castlevania to find out what happened to the vanished Belmont. Can he manage to locate Richter, and destroy the Castle before things get out of hand?
Oh my, yes.
