[edit] Starting a game

When you begin to play Castlevania II, you have the option of starting a new game, or continuing a previous game by entering a password. You will receive a new password whenever you lose all of your lives and your game is over.

[edit] Passwords

See the passwords section for a list of example passwords.

A password is constructed from 16 alpha-numeric characters. The game doesn't record your game state and then assign you a password, rather it calculates the game state based on the password you enter. As a result, if you understand how the system works, you can set up the game however you want.
