Explore Dracula's Castle In Fan-Made Castlevania Board Game
S
After creating an original Fallout board game and a Fallout Monopoly set for his wife, Reddit user "XSimonBelmontX" is living up to his name with a custom tabletop trek through Castlevania. The board game pulls from all of Castlevania's lore, but the map is based on the castle from the NES Castlevania game. The set includes dozens of cards, character tokens, hit point chips, separate sets of dice for battle and movement, a curse counter, and a box that speaks to the NES charm of this series.
Along with monster slaying, this game allows players to collect experience, level up, and upgrade wares. It even offers multiple boss forms for Dracula. You can read all about the game over at Simon's Imgur page. This set cannot be purchased, and is one-of-a-kind.
We hope someone from Konami reaches out to Simon to give this detailed and beautifully crafted game a serious look. We'd love to try it out.
