Trivia? Maybe it should be noted that you can receive a rare item if you have a completion save for Castlevania: Lament of Innocence stored on the same memory card being used for Curse of Darkness. Just my thought CharlieP216 22:46, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Well, I like your thought. If you want to mention it, go ahead and do that. Also, is Castlevania: Curse of Darkness inappropriate (other than blood and violence) in any way? Because I really want to buy it, and I'm not 17. I'm younger. Could someone PLEASE answer. I know it wouldn't help this site in any ways, and these aren't forums, but I really have my eyes glued to that game...

It's due to the small amount of blood and occult contentCharlieP216 20:02, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

I have a completion save but received not "rare item" also it is appropriate nothing majorly disturbing as there are in some games.

Well, let's put it this way. Out of these three games, which is the most appropriate? Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Castlevania: Curse of Darkness, or Castlevania: Lament of Innocence?

Well, if you're still interested, and you still check this. I'd say in order from most to least SotN, CoD, LoI. With a little interchangability between SotN and CoD. The least appropriate parts of SotN are Beelzebub (boss monster, giant rotting corpse), Granfaloon (boss, giant sphere of corpses, also appears as "Legion" in CoD and many other Castlevania games), and Bloody Zombie (a normal, and weak, enemy whose spine breaks and spews out blood, along with a scream, when you kill him.) That, and some semi-nude statues (but you actually have to be looking real hard to notice). I put CoD second because (well, for one SotN is one of my favorite games) it's 3-d, and again, it features Legion/Granfaloon. As for LoI, it's a bit darker... imo; also I thought the graphics were more realistic. In addition to that, the secret boss was one of the goriest monsters I've seen in a video game. Altogether, nothing really that'd give you nightmares, unless your parents are the anti-video-game type (actually, my mother always said "video games are the root of all evil" or something like that, and I was still playing games like this when I was 12 or younger.)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Curse of Darkness.PNG

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

[edit] Rare Item for LoI Save and Comment

For the "rare item" it is actually a moai statue you can find near where you start (head away from the castle to find it). and if anyone can add more character information please add it. castlevaniamaster1 11:32, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
