Played by: Ravenlord

Super Castlevania IV is a 1991 platform game developed and published by Konami. Released originally for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, it has been re-released multiple times, including for the Super NES Classic Edition.

The game features expanded play control, 16-bit graphics featuring Super NES's Mode 7, and a soundtrack featuring new pieces and arrangements based on previous Castlevania music. Following the same setting as Castlevania on the NES, the game takes place in 1691 Transylvania, where the vampire hunter Simon Belmont must defeat the vampire Dracula.

Probably one of my favorite SNES soundtracks ever

I could watch a run of SCIV anytime and won't get tired of it.

The more I watch this game, the more impressed I am by the work done in every level with such an unique pixel art.

Still my favorite of the series. Like the versions of Bloody Tears and Vampire Killer the best too.

Epic music, epic game play, one of the best games on the SNES.

Symphony of the Night may be a masterpiece, but this game will always be the best.

This is the best Castlevania game. The music is truly amazing in this game. I have and play super castlevania 4 till this day 🎮🎮

What a fun playthrough. I like the time spent exploring dead ends in the stages and things like the delayed vertical whip kill on the first boss. It captures the immersive side of this amazing game.

11:45 The point when I realized how amazing the SNES soundchip was when I was 13 years old the first time playing this game in the autumn of 1991.

Melhor jogo de SNES! Tudo nesse jogo é perfeito: gráficos, trilha sonora, jogabilidade, inimigos marcantes e um final simples, mas elevado... tenho essa fita completa na cx, é não troco e não vendo por nada nesse mundo 🌎 🌎 🌎

Arguably the best Castlevania. I never could reach the end, yet, but it is a challenging masterpiece.

[jivaldiviesoa]

The soundtrack is pure gold I love it 😀 the whole game is epic there should be a remaster

After the AVGN did his CV Retrospective series I HAD to buy and play this game for myself. And I did. Now I have the CV Anniversary Collection which includes it and Bloodlines, which I also owned and played years ago. Theyre both awesome!

After over 30 years I never knew those creatures that fly out of the skull mountain at the very start actually come towards the screen. Bit daft you don't get to see them closer up because of the status bar :O

My favorite game from the SNES era. ^^ I have seen various speedruns of it, but I always enjoy watching it played through, and playing through it myself of course if I'm able to. :P

[Snoopenges]

I love how this game is so good and the mode 7 chip makes the background pretty and cool and like the music is amazing 🤩

[TheOmnimaru]

Gotta love Castlevania games, with heroes so obssesed on fighting evil that if they dont slay a major monster before a certain amount of time they wil suffer a stroke and die, yet so polite that will also die if they dont take the stairs to a platform where they could just jump down to. :D

[jupiterjazz]

Ravenlord did an excellent job. Thank you for the great playthrough :D

[arodderz]
