Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is the first installment of the Castlevania series on PSX, and was the very first PSX TAS to be published.

Follow the quest of Richter (playable after you beat the game once) and see how he glitches and speeds through the castle. If you like fast sliding, dashing, uppercutting, and using precipitation to defeat bosses, you'll love this run.

In order to see a "full" run of the game, see the Alucard version.

Obsoletes movie #432 (21:43.47)
Rating: 7.4 (9 votes)
View Publication		- Takes damage to save time
- Genre: Platform
In Rockin' Kats, Willy the Kat's girl Jill is kidnapped no less than five times by the local crime boss, and, armed with little more than a 'punch-gun', he sets out to rescue her.

This run was the winning submission to TASVideos' Dream Team Contest 4, and improves the old run by just over five minutes.

There is also a run of this game that completes the hidden Channel X.

Please read the welcome page if you haven't already done so. It explains the rules and methods that apply to all of these movies, particularly the use of savestates and frame advance. Also refer to our Glossary to understand terms we use, such as TAS or other unfamiliar terms.
