Castlevania: Reincarnation - BootlegVanias OST #5

Join the Discord Server: Discord: discord

Hi everyone! If you're not in my discord server, then you may not have expected this, but here I am presenting you the "BootlegVanias OST series". Essentially, me and Oersted (@oersted_lal) found these hidden java games titled Castlevania and, after examinating some, decided that they'd make for some content. While these not being official CV games (most are rip-offs of other games or straight unlicensed), their tracks are somewhat interesting.


Here we are with the last episode of this series, but I took care of keeping the best game for last.
Castlevania: Reincarnation, developed by "Singing Cicada".
This is probably the most ambitous bootleg we've seen this far, since it can be described as a proper "Chinese Aria of Sorrow", not just because the game is a chinese product (and then translated to russian), but more importantly because of the plot: the protagonist, Kamui, must gather some runes so that "Dracula" cannot be revived anymore. In his path, some AoS-like character will appear, such as an FBI Agent (=Yoko), a love interest (who acts the same way as Mina) and a suspicious antagonist (=Graham).

The gameplay is pratically the same as any Metroidvania (again, really similar to AoS, minus the soul system) and is really a step up compared to the other games we already saw. This can be a really easy game, especially with the presence of debugs features that unlock all spells right away (one of them can cheese the final boss too).

This episode, however, won't be the same as the others.
For one, the music tracks are straight taken from other games (with no exception), so there won't be any opinion or scores.
Secondly, but most importantly, this game is being translated in english by non other than Oersted, who also managed to give the game a new soundtrack (it suits the game more imo).
Each entry will have 2 songs, first the OG soundtrack, then the EX one, all with some background images taken from the game (no title screen only this time!).

I thank Oersted for all his work put into this series and in this game. Go subscribe to his channel for some more hacking videos (not only Castlevania stuff, but also of other very interesting games), and I hope you enjoyed every Bootleg video.
Next time, we come back to the normal format!
