2015.03.20 "Castle Of Dracula" An obscure Korean game has been spotted in Italy, bought and dumped by Caius! Initially all he had was the title screen and a blurry PCB pic.. It turned out to be a shameless (and cheap) clone of Plotting. Castle Of Dracula, this the name of the game, was apparently developed by Yun Sung in 1994, although the PCB only bears "Escape" stickers and the title screen displays a laconic "Y.S.E." copyright. Here are some screens from emulation: http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0001.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0000.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0003.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0004.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0010.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0006.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0008.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0013.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0002.png http://www.lucaelia.com/images/mame_snaps/cdracula/0014.png Having played the game a bit, the "so bad it's good" saying rather fits the clumsy, unpolished production. The game nonchalantly blends a fantasy back story of sworded heroes and damsels in distress, narrated through interludes drawn in manga style, with the titular Romanian gothic myth. Brave enough? A video from the PCB is provided by Caius: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NW9sZTfF-vk&feature=player_embedded The "stiff" graphics do hint at a blitter based engine, don't they? Sure enough... the anonymous PCB is actually a clone of dynax.c hardware. The Dynax blitter is implemented by an FPGA with a few minor variations in how the drawing flags and the destination layers are selected. Sound is also a single M6295 that plays digitized loops in place of the Yamaha PSGs. Don't listen to it for long or it'll get stuck into your head. 來源：http://www.lucaelia.com/mame.php/2015/Castle-Of-Dracula 　　　The Dumping Union 　　　http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showthreaded.php?Number=337848 -- ポーラステーション http://perry0517a.blogspot.tw/ --
