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 1993 action-platform game developed and published by Konami for the Game Boy. It is a spinoff of the Castlevania series, as well as 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").

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]}
