Second Quest
There is a second quest in this game that players may over look. Do the following steps to get access to the second quest.

Get the Spike Buster armor in the Catacombs by turning into a bat and using your radar to negotiate the "Dark Spiked Tunnel".

Go to the "Royal Chapel", equip the Spike Buster armor and run through the hallway of spikes. After the hallway, Maria will give you a Green Ring.

Use the Green Ring in the center of the Castle at the Clock Tower.

Easy Familiar Experience
Ok, easy way, but a bit time consuming, to get experience for all your familiars. I believe you have to have it beaten once first. but I may be wrong.

As you start the game, go through like you normally would. But this time, don't but alot from the librarian. Only get the Jewel of Open, and 1 or 2 Library Cards. The proceed with the game.

Once you get in the inverted castle, keep going and get AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE. Once you get 500,000 go back to the librarian, and purchase the Duplicator. Then go BACK to the inverted castle, and equip it. By this time, you should have at least ONE of the Power of Sire items. Equip that as well. Voila, you have an infinite supply now as long as you have the duplicator equipped.

Now go to the room in the inverted church thing (forgot the name off hand), and enter the room with the big sword that is surrounded by spears and shields. Use the Power of Sire, then leave the room, and go back in, use it again, and so on and so forth. Within an hour I had ALL my familiars powered up to 99/99

Find Sword of Dawn and Great Sword
The Sword of Dawn is hidden in the Reverce Castle. Remember where you got the double jump relic in the normal castle? Well, to the left of that there's a secret breakable wall. Attack it to reveal a hidden pot roast. But when you're in the Reverce Keep, repeat the process to reveal the Sword of Dawn. Execute this move to summon Dawn warriors: down,forward,then square or Circle. Meanwhile the Great Sword can be easily obtained by defeating a gold Armor Lord in the Reverce Castle. It won't always work though. Keep trying.

How to get the Crissaegrim
First, you must go to the inverted castle. From there, go to the Forbidden Library. There you will encounter some enemies called Schomoo. Those things sometimes drop Ramen and they rarely drop the most powerful sword in the game, the Crissaedrim.

Special Sword Attack
In order to this you must equip any of these three swords: the Alucard Sword, Jade Katana and Katana Blade. Just press down, front twice and then press circle or square. Alucard will have a mirage that will attack at the back of the enemy, Alucard is also invulnerable in doing this attack.

Summon the Skeleton Warriors
In order to Summon the skeleton warriors you must equip the Sword of Dawn, then press down, front twice and then press square or circle. A flash of light will release in the sword and there emerge many types of skeleton warriors, such as mages, spearmen, swordsmen and archers.They will help you in battle for a short time ,but you can summon them anytime you want.

Axe armor and other items
To do this cheat you must have the gravity boots.In the right-side-up castle there is a room under the librarian's room. In this room there is a hole in the ceiling. If you gravity jump up it you push the librarians chair up.You have to keep gravity jumping under him, but you must give time between jumps. (I suggest you gravity jump after you fall back under the ceiling, before you hit the ground.) Keep doing this, though it may take a long while, you will get the axelord armor as well as dracula's tunic, and other items too.

Note: You cannot hit the ground when gravity jumping continuously.
