Kid Dracula is a video game for the Famicom and Game Boy, with only the latter version being released outside of Japan. It is considered a spin-off to the popular Castlevania series, though this fact is not exactly evident. The Japanese only Famicom game was released in 1991, while the Game Boy game was released in 1993 - two years later. Like the other Castlevania video games, Kid Dracula is a sidescrolling platformer.
