The "where the f*ck do I go and what the f*ck do I do now" feature has always been very prominent in Metroidvania games. You can expect to encounter it at least half a dozen times in every one you play. It's impossible to find everything you need to get a good ending without without a walkthrough.
I‘ve waited for something like that. You‘ve done gods work when you did the same with Bloodstained. It just so happens that I‘ve resumed my Symphony of the Night playthrough after months and don‘t have a single clue where I am in the game. Thanks!
Pulled out my playstation after 20 years and was too glad to have this game!! Always loved the Castlevania series but just haven't played these in ages. Anyways, I got stuck and this helped much. I asked someone at a game store about playstation and if they carried any games. He said no but recommended me elsewhere. He was surprised that mine still worked and thought that was so cool I was bothering with it. Haha... I told him it was a bit dusty but still works and damned good fun. My Nintendo64 I pulled out too out of storage. Mario Kart is also righteous after all these years!! Cheers!! -- Dani
I’ve been following your guides for several Soulsborne games, Demons Souls remake introduced me to your channel. Imagine my surprise when I got stuck in SOTN and your video was a search result. You have good selection in games. Thanks once again for the videos.
All these years I had no idea that there was anything beyond defeating Richter, and frankly the bad ending soured the game for me quite a bit. It's completely insane that they concealed a big chunk of the game like that. Time for another run with my PS4 version!
One dumb question: How am I supposed to know I had to wait at the clock room to that left statue open? It's a very specific thing, does the game explain that for you?
@@roughy762004 are you sure it's the left? Because for the right one to open you need the clock power up to stop time. If it's the left you are talking about, I heard about a bug that the left statue doesn't open in a platform, maybe you could search about it
I love Metroidvanias, so I wanted to try the dad of this fantastic genre. I was expecting a game shorter, simpler than most of the modern iterations, but at, roughly 60% completion I'm blown at what SOTN is. Probably the most beautiful metroidvania I've ever played(and I cannot stop myself from remembering to everyone that THIS is the FATHER of the entire genre alongside Super Metroid). Thanks for the amazing guide, I'm super excited about going in the inverted castle!
Cant believe i didnt play this game years ago. I thoguht nothing was gonna top super castlevania 4 but i was wrong. This games a fantastic. Thank you for such an easy and short guide. Best walkthrough video ive ever seen
I just played this game for the first time (even though I'm almost 20 years old) And........ this game has a lot of things that I couldn't have imagined, if I had played it before YT came out, I would have spent a whole month just tinkering with all of these things.
Always had my uncle tell me about this series and I loved the anime now that dbd did a collab with castlevania I got rondo of blood and symphony of the night and am hooked
YOOOOOO that's a great journey to the games! I was so bummed when the first anime series ended, but relieved when Nocturne was announced. I'm so hype for season 2. I really hope you play the other games and check out the collections that are out.
i was born in '05 so i arrived a bit late to enjoy ps1 in its initial years. i decided to play this on an emulator and this guide helped me a lot during my playthrough, thanks!@
I went to the chapel and got an item but I could not go any further cause a wall was blockning me. So I got the soul of wolf and now I am lost where to go. Any pointers please?
So turns out I had some sort of cursed Japanese Rom where the jewel of Open isn’t available from the shop/merchant/librarian… or at all… Also every enemy had about 30x the normal life pool which I learned when I downloaded a normal American Rom…. Also the double jump was located super early in the game in the alchemy lab… very cursed rom indeed. But I’m almost to Death & then Dracula from this guide on the non cursed American Rom. Cheers. Thank you I probably would’ve never ever ever gotten that far without the video. Thank you 🙏🏻
How do you "wing crush" or whatever you're saying? I assume it's something i have to get? I can't find a button combination that let's me fly like that.
when you push the button one of those skeleton guys spawns and break the platform in the room. i think that's meant to be a hint for you to put two and two together on how to break that one bridge.
I say it at that very second haha. It's only available in the Sega Saturn version of the game, and it opens after you get your stuff stolen by Death in the beginning of the game.
I could’ve sworn I bought the jewel of open. Also playing on Japanese version and I can’t go through the blue door, nor can I find it in the librarians store or my inventory ugh….. what do I do?
I just played through this game and kept coming to what seemed like dead ends and had to watch some of this because there's no fucking way I could have figured out some of these things and they also kinda give you an ability to free roam so I often forced myself into places I wasn't supposed to be by cheering enemies or dying until I found away around them or actually got the hint and gave up that direction. Almost like I did everything opposite of how you set in this tutorial so by the time I was watching I just had to skip to that part watch you explain or show where to go and I was like "oh I definitely didn't see that"
So sorry I missed this question! It's still possible. Go back to the room where you flipped the castle and press up on the d-pad. You'll go back to the regular castle.
I’m playing on ps1 emulator and am wondering how I can access the map? I’ve seen it pop up a couple times in the guide but I have pressed every button and nothing seems to work.
It should be the "Select" button. If you play with an XBox controller, it's usually set to be the "Back" button. Go have a look in the controller/input settings of your emulator to see which button "Select" is assigned to, or to reconfigure it if needed.
@@Jack-dx4 if that's the one in the colosseum, you're supposed to press the floor switch to open the elevator there. Not really intended to go back the way you came there.
I’ve been playing the Requiem edition and I’ve gotten all three trophies. For some reason they didn’t give me the trophy “Continue Simon’s quest”. Has this happened to anyone else or know how to fix this , I’d prefer not to replay the whole game again but if I have to I will.
That is quite bizarre. You've beaten SotN? If you have, then that's certainly a bug. I'm really sorry to say you might have to replay it. The game is a banger though and your second playthrough will go much faster!
The prologue for this game is probably the worst prologue to ever exist, you just have to figure shit on yo own, TELL ME HOW TF I GOT STUCK IN THE PROLOGUE FOR HOURS, I BEAT HOLLOW KNIGHT🤦🏻♂️

Happy to help! Halloween always puts me in the mood for Castlevania, so I figured this would be perfect timing!
I was doing a playthrough of this game for nostalgia and found myself completely lost. This guide worked like a charm!
Glad I could help keep the nostalgia flowing!

Hahaha that's awesome!! Great to see you again in the classics library!
All these years I had no idea that there was anything beyond defeating Richter, and frankly the bad ending soured the game for me quite a bit. It's completely insane that they concealed a big chunk of the game like that. Time for another run with my PS4 version!
Wow. It's crazy to me that you went all this time without knowing about the second castle!
Must have been an Awesome surprise! I just got back into gaming after years and Castlevania is so satisfying to play!
I don’t know if you will ever see this but man thank you so much for, probably the best guide video in RUclips
You're very welcome!
One dumb question: How am I supposed to know I had to wait at the clock room to that left statue open? It's a very specific thing, does the game explain that for you?
If your observant it closes when you first meet Maria in the clock room so it shows you that its operable .
I thought you need to equip the gold ring for the left clock statue to move?
@@roughy762004 what ring? If I remember correctly for the left statue to open you just have to wait
@@kr3mico335 been sittin here for 10 mins.

Hate to say, I would've put the game down after death took my stuff in the beginning.
@@MacenW DAMN WHY
Will follow this guide, playable on mobile and makes it easier.
Wow thanks so much for this … gonna save me a ton of time trying to figure out where to go… ive just been circling around for like an hour
Always had my uncle tell me about this series and I loved the anime now that dbd did a collab with castlevania I got rondo of blood and symphony of the night and am hooked
YOOOOOO that's a great journey to the games! I was so bummed when the first anime series ended, but relieved when Nocturne was announced. I'm so hype for season 2. I really hope you play the other games and check out the collections that are out.
Please, do a video on all of the other metroidvanias in the series, this is super helpful.
Thanks man, never would've found colosseum in 20 years lol. 2024, this game still rocks.
Solid man well done very helpful
i was born in '05 so i arrived a bit late to enjoy ps1 in its initial years. i decided to play this on an emulator and this guide helped me a lot during my playthrough, thanks!@
I love sotn. This video is good. I was going to have negative criticism on the video, then i went thru the comments 🤦♂️
I went to the chapel and got an item but I could not go any further cause a wall was blockning me. So I got the soul of wolf and now I am lost where to go. Any pointers please?
I need you to be more specific about what item you got and what wall was blocking you.
You are awesome! Thanks for this video!
If it weren't for you, I would have thought that Alucard was the only one who stepped out of the castle by now :)))
Super helpful video and concise! :-)
Glad it was helpful!
I'm so used to skipping parts of the first castle that I don"t usually get double jump until right before the Belmont fight
I am an idiot, I forgot about the sonor for that spike path with the bat. 😑Thank you!
There's no explanation for breaking the ice floor before you get the snorkel.
just divekick
I'm lost where do you acquire divekick?also stuck
@@akeilpreddie3066 you can simply double jump and while in the air press Jump+Down
If you have the fairy equipped she will tell you that theres a false wall. It is cryptic but ultimately not needed to progress.
He does jump kick but won't break the floor!?
So turns out I had some sort of cursed Japanese Rom where the jewel of Open isn’t available from the shop/merchant/librarian… or at all… Also every enemy had about 30x the normal life pool which I learned when I downloaded a normal American Rom…. Also the double jump was located super early in the game in the alchemy lab… very cursed rom indeed. But I’m almost to Death & then Dracula from this guide on the non cursed American Rom. Cheers.

Thank you very much for your help :))))
Thank you. This helped me out a lot.
How do you "wing crush" or whatever you're saying? I assume it's something i have to get? I can't find a button combination that let's me fly like that.
Tysm. I was stuck in a stream but this solved it fir me
12:30 path towards snorkel, the ground is frozen. Unsure why I already unlocked ferryman.
There a way to get to the chapel without the jewel of open? I bought it for another door long before I watched this 💀
It works on both doors. It's a relic that never leaves your inventory.
Cryptic ahh game💀 how i am supossed to know about the fire barrel and the skeleton thing
when you push the button one of those skeleton guys spawns and break the platform in the room. i think that's meant to be a hint for you to put two and two together on how to break that one bridge.
Im confused i waited for ages to open up in clock room, but its stuck
Thank you for this!! 😊
12:30 ground frozen and divekick doesn't work. Perhaps didn't progress far enough
Divekick is never going to work there. Point your weapon down-right or down-left and swing it.
@SweetJohnnyCage Oh ok, thanks I'll try this. Already cleared rest of area.
You get the wolf, you get the mist, no need for double jumps , you know that? You can go to inverted castle without the silver and gold ring
You should do these videos for the dark souls games 👍
Not a bad idea...
Bless this man
At 6:44 how did you get the trap door open?
I say it at that very second haha. It's only available in the Sega Saturn version of the game, and it opens after you get your stuff stolen by Death in the beginning of the game.
What if you allready used that item from the salesdude on another blue door??😮💨😮💨
It counts as a relic, so you can use it infinitely.
Can’t kill galamoth doing 1 damage per hit with crisssham sword idk what wrong?
I never really paid attention to levels in this game, but it sounds like you might be too low. Maybe come back after you've killed some other bosses.
Fantastic video
Thank you!
I am stuck in the clock room where the 2 statues on sides the time is stopped on 4:49 need help the clock is not ticking anymore.
Just use the timestop subweapon.
I could’ve sworn I bought the jewel of open. Also playing on Japanese version and I can’t go through the blue door, nor can I find it in the librarians store or my inventory ugh….. what do I do?
With the Crissaegrim...EVERYONE IS A PUSHOVER!
Makes you feel like Netflix Alucard.
@@SweetJohnnyCage I never seen it. I imagine he's a total BOSS!
@@fluoriteheals you MUST change that and watch it immediately
@@SweetJohnnyCage Will do! Maybe my woman will watch it too..!
@@SweetJohnnyCage which one? Nocturne or just regular Castlevania?
The gold ring disappeared from my inventory smh
Thank you
I just played through this game and kept coming to what seemed like dead ends and had to watch some of this because there's no fucking way I could have figured out some of these things and they also kinda give you an ability to free roam so I often forced myself into places I wasn't supposed to be by cheering enemies or dying until I found away around them or actually got the hint and gave up that direction. Almost like I did everything opposite of how you set in this tutorial so by the time I was watching I just had to skip to that part watch you explain or show where to go and I was like "oh I definitely didn't see that"
How can i make the left statue move in the reverse castle? The big clock is not ticking so it won't move how can fix it?
The clock isn't ticking? Try going back into the room and waiting a full minute.
@@SweetJohnnyCage I already did it i think the big clock is broken you can't hear any ticking noise thus preventing the hands of the clock to move
Im on inverted castle,is it still possible to het all wolf relics or is it only possible when its normal castle
So sorry I missed this question! It's still possible. Go back to the room where you flipped the castle and press up on the d-pad. You'll go back to the regular castle.

@@Teubai thanks, I figured it out for some reason I literally clicked everything except select
@@Hermesmaybe Haha, glad you found it. Have fun!
It's funny that Dracula is easier than Galamoth.
Probably silly question but do I have to beat the doppelganger to get to the library?
Yep.
Ok but like how do I beat the floating sword
Is this the same guy that does NFK Herping?
Nope!
Hey Johnny, can this game be played full screen?
I believe so. It has a few stretching options.
Zero explanation at 1:17 how to get past the purple armor lord this early...
I’m just stuck dying
What a great game.
Agreed!
How tf u supposed to find half of these
Soo uh how do I properly travel through with the mist it keeps resetting me
You need to hold the button and start very close to whatever you're trying to get through
@SweetJohnnyCage I was trying to get out of the cage from the bat transformation it took me an hour I have no idea why
@@Jack-dx4 if that's the one in the colosseum, you're supposed to press the floor switch to open the elevator there. Not really intended to go back the way you came there.

He doesn't talk to Richter.
Why is your damage so high and armor at 0?
There’s an accessory that does that. Ring of Ares.
Doing the lords work
I'm out here fiending Castlevania every day!
How do i get the japanese version?
eBay, mom and pop game stores that sell import games, or on the Japanese PS3 store.
The prologue for this game is probably the worst prologue to ever exist, you just have to figure shit on yo own, TELL ME HOW TF I GOT STUCK IN THE PROLOGUE FOR HOURS, I BEAT HOLLOW KNIGHT🤦🏻♂️
you have to hit Dracula in the head.
White dudes that play Japan versions of games when the US is easily more available... have never eon a fist fight. Cool tips tho.

@@SweetJohnnyCage just fuckin with ya dude. I knew you were gonna show the garden. Still watchin til the end right now. Good stuff.
