Super Castlevania 4 on Super Nintendo - Level 3 : Caves, waterfalls and sunken city

The caves

In this cave, you meet funny mud golem (it looks like stone) that separate into 2 smaller and then 2 smaller when you hit them. They are very slow but strong enough. Note that the water drops do not affect you. When I was little, I avoided them all and it's a little more tedious. There is a secret room on the left the first time we go down, we can fart the walls with the whip, you will find money, hearts and a leg of lamb. A little further down, you can still go to the left, stooping and walking on your knees. There is holy water and 5 hearts. On the end, stone stalactites fall after vibrating for a moment. Do not get too close, they throw a piece on each side, bursting on the ground.

The falls

In this second part, it will be necessary to go up from platform to platform along the cascades. The first bridge collapses, do not drag on it. Be careful not to fall and especially not to grow in the void by enemies. Be careful when you swing and everything should be fine.

The sunken city

You arrive in the sunken city. As for waterfalls, here, the important thing is not to fall. At first, do not go too fast because stones collapse from the top of the screen (announced by small debris). Let them fall in front of you. Men fish spit water with a fine but powerful jet. The jet goes diagonally but the fish take time to spit, so it is quite easy to avoid it since we know its trajectory. In the second part of the city, you will start an ascent again. Many skeleton / dragon skeleton block the road. Hit your head. Remember that if an enemy touches you in a staircase, you are not thrown back so do not hesitate to go up / down a step if an enemy might eject you.

The boss of level 3: The hydra with 2 heads (Orphic vipers)

Once again, this boss is not very difficult. She has 2 attacks. Before throwing them, the head that will shoot stops briefly. The first attack is a kind of flamethrower that starts from the mouth and has a reduced range. The other attack is a shot of 3 balls in 3 directions (roughly straight and 45 ° up and down). The 2 blocks in the middle are rather a good position to fight but do not hesitate to go down a floor if necessary because you can grow in the hole from this platform. The shooting of the 3 balls could constrain you there. However, this position has the advantage of keeping you away from the head shots and normally the attack "flame-thrower".
