Play Castlevania : Circle of the Moon Online

Konami released Castlevania: Circle of the Moon for the Game Boy Advance in 2001. It was one of the first major titles for the handheld, arriving early in the system's life. The game continued the exploration-heavy style popularized by Symphony of the Night, bringing that kind of sprawling adventure to a portable format.

You control the vampire hunter Nathan Graves, navigating a large, interconnected castle room by room. Your main goal is to defeat Dracula, but getting there requires you to explore every corner, defeat monsters, and collect new abilities to access previously blocked areas. The combat relies on your character's whip, but the standout feature is the Dual Set-up System, which lets you combine two magic cards to create powerful secondary attacks or summon familiars. The game is known for its high difficulty and deliberate pacing, requiring careful movement and resource management. It feels like a thoughtful, challenging puzzle where every new power-up genuinely expands your options.
