Castlevania (N64) Cheats & Tips

Your guide for cheat codes, tips, hacks and walkthroughs

Extra difficulty level

Beat the game with either character and wait until the credits end. Save the game, then restart to access the "Hard" difficulty setting. Note: The first green jewel for the Secret #1 entry on the item list must be collected. It can be found in the Silent Forest (level 1). Locate the platform that is floating next to a bridge. Jump to the platform and hit the torch to find the jewel.

Alternate costumes

Beat the game with either character on the "Hard" difficulty setting, after finding your character's special crystal in the towers. When playing as Reinhardt, move up to the third level in the Tower of Execution, break open one of the iron maidens to find the Execution Key. Then, return to the second level, open the locked iron gate and walk through the hallway. Finally, look over the edge to find a floating platform with an iron maiden, jump to the floating platform, and break the iron maiden to find the purple jewel for his Secret #2. When playing as Carrie, throw holy water at the floating platform with a torch at the top of the Tower of Sorcery just before the exit, then hit the torch to find the purple jewel for her Secret #2. Next, save the game, then highlight the character the game was completed with at the character selection screen. Hold Analog-stick Up and choose the character to select their alternate costume. Reidhart's alternate costume is Simon Belmont's original costume. Carrie Fernandez's alternate costume is a classic 1920s school girl outfit.
