General Game/Speedrun Information.

Version Differences

There are no gameplay differences between the U.S. version and its Japanese counterpart (Akumajou Dracula). Only graphical differences. For more info, go here - Regional Differences

Commonly Played Categories

  • Any% - beat the game as fast as possible
  • Low% - no whip upgrades or subweapons
  • Hard Mode - 2nd Quest, enemies have more health and there a lot more of them

Timing Methods

Timing starts on gaining control of Simon SDA Start Timing by Hanage and ends on touching the last orb after defeating Dracula.

  • -6.28 from START on title screen
  • -3.95 from name select to gaining control

Auto Splitter

If you run an emulator listed in the shared file you can add this file to your Layout in LiveSplit. Some emulators require you to run LiveSplit as Administrator!
