== Passwords == | |||
:''See the [[Castlevania II: Simon's Quest/Passwords|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. | |||
