The second quest has a few more secrets which can be seen in this video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2YLTy3fhnCE]. Moai figures (4000 points), a reference to Konami's [[:Category:Gradius|Gradius]] series, can only be found in the second quest.
== Pot Roasts ==


{| {{prettytable}}
Life restoring [[Castlevania/Items#Special Items|Pot Roasts]] can be found by destroying certain blocks throughout the castle. Each Roast restores six bars of health, so finding one can easily be the difference between life and death.

In [[Castlevania/Stages 13 - 15#Stage 13|Stage 13]] and [[Castlevania/Stages 13 - 15#Stage 15|15]], there are some hard-to-reach candles. These can only be hit by the [[Castlevania/Items#Weapons|Throwing Axe]], which would need to be brought in from a previous stage. These candles only contain [[Castlevania/Items#Standard Items|Small Hearts]].


== Second Quest ==
== Second Quest ==
After you beat Dracula and the game one time, you can continue after the credits roll.  You will begin back at Stage 1 with any [[Castlevania/Items#Weapons|special weapon]] that you had the last time, but the game will be much more difficult. Every time that you get hit, you will sustain four units of damage, so you can only be hit four times before dying. The enemies also come in larger numbers and move significantly faster, though they don't take any additional hits to kill.

Every time that you get hit, you will sustain four units of damage, so you can only be hit four times before dying (unless you find any Pot Roast).
 
The stage counter does not reset when you begin the second quest. You start on Stage 19 and the stages progress in the same order as the first quest, though there is a small difference in their numbering. [[Castlevania/Stages 1 - 3#Part A|Stage 19]] is the area outside of the castle and [[Castlevania/Stages 1 - 3#Part B|Stage 20]] is the interior. In the first quest, both of these areas together were [[Castlevania/Stages 1 - 3#Stage 1|Stage 1]].
 
After defeating Dracula a second time, the second quest restarts and the difficulty does not increase further. The game loops forever this way. At Stage 99, the stage counter will stop incrementing, but the game will continue normally.
 
'''Additional changes:'''
*'''[[Castlevania/Stages 1 - 3|Stages 1 - 3]]''': In all above grounds sections, [[Castlevania/Enemies#Bats|Bats]] will be constantly flying about, often at the most inconvenient height possible. [[Castlevania/Enemies#Fishmen|Fishmen]] and [[Castlevania/Enemies#Ghouls|Ghouls]] will also appear in much greater numbers.
*'''[[Castlevania/Stages 4 - 6|Stages 4 - 6]]''': All three stages are now populated with [[Castlevania/Enemies#Medusa Heads|Medusa Heads]]. The spikes in [[Castlevania/Stages 4 - 6#Stage 6|Stage 6]] now pose one of the greatest challenges of the game since you also have to time your movements to avoid the Heads.
*'''[[Castlevania/Stages 10 - 12|Stages 10 - 11]]''': Many, many more [[Castlevania/Enemies#Bats|Bats]] than before, who now appear alongside the [[Castlevania/Enemies#Eagles|Eagle]]/[[Castlevania/Enemies#Fleamen|Fleaman]] teams (which also appear in greater numbers). The [[Castlevania/Enemies#Fishmen|Fishmen]] are much more numerous in the underground river and may jump up directly below you.
