Edward Findlay has released a free fan remake of Konami’s Castlevania 2 on the PC, called Simon’s Quest Rebitten. This remake comes with native controls for the PC, as well as some improvements. For instance, it features a day/night cycle and boss fights.
Now what’s really cool here is that Findlay has created various remakes for other classic NES games. For instance, you can download a remake of Ninja Gaiden, as well as a remake for Splatterhouse 4.
Additionally, you can find a remaster of Faxanadu. This remake is also three times longer than the original game, so make sure to at least give it a go.
You can download all these freeware games from here. Needless to say that even though these are free fan remakes, all of them use copyrighted material. What this ultimately means is that they may be taken down really soon. Thus, we suggest downloading them while you still can. (link has been removed as Findlay is selling copyrighted games).
Lastly, I’ve included below some videos from some of them so you can get a better idea of what you can expect from them.
Have fun!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

I think I may have pee’d a wee bit upon seeing that game staring ole Donny J…that will be on my machine for a while…seeing a rocket explode a dude while he yells “America first” …raging b*ner of patriotism…good to see pence do something other than pretend he’s not a robot..
The F you are talking about dude?
““America first” …raging b*ner of patriotism…”
You ghey niggar? Being patriotic of a country that have h0m0sx as it’s first export priority i mean.
The irony of hattin on faggets and then being an american patriotard…
I’m guessing you didn’t visit ole boys website…ya know where the article says “here”….were you to do that you would see a game where trump takes on Antifa..and yes I am patriotic of my country..you might be into the homsexy time (Thats cool man, whatever) but when I think of America..that isn’t the first thing I think of…not even in the top ten…
“were you to do that you would see a game where trump takes on Antifa..”
Trump doesn’t take on Antifa in real life, he is also pro fagEt as it gets, wake the F up.
“you might be into the homsexy time (Thats cool man, whatever)”
No, pederasty isn’t “cool, whatever”.
“but when I think of America..that isn’t the first thing I think of…not even in the top ten…”
Yeah, America doesn’t care what you think and they are happy to let you be deluded…
Dude…you’re a nut…who mentioned Pedies?? Wasn’t me…you keep bringing it up though..have you ever been or are you currently in therapy? Cause if the answer is no, I got some good advice for you
thanks for bleeping out all the naughty words, I certainly noticed/appreciated it. a nut with restraint is ok by me.
America is falling yes..I know..but ranting like a loon of his/her meds isn’t going to help..logical calm discussion first, then maybe get upset, use that silver tongue, that skill of being the verbal wordsmith and run for office. Kiss some babies..
THEN violence!!!.
AFTER all that, maybe try your best to convince everyone you’re just some homeless moron who got off on the wrong train station..you and your pickle jar full of pee just wanna make it to Yuma before summer. Never start of on the last step…it ruins any conversation.
Nice, but can’t download it from where I live.
Which is 2020, I live in 2020 and this shiet belongs to the 90’s.
Oh, you are that guy with low IQ takes from the last time… Carry on being stupid.
Want some cookie or just the usual attention?
I just can’t resist calling out stupid sheit.
Talking in front a mirror, eh?
Really ghey move from this dev to not include keyboard support, like, how hard it is to assign some keys to the game? In b4 some ghey nerd talks “play with a controller”…
There is a keyboard version available.
Didn’t you state in the Ninja Gaiden remake you would stop putting keyboard controls?
AVGN should update his review
There is already plenty of QoL hacks for Simon’s Quest, including a 16 bit remake, this game isn’t anything new.
This is not a rom hack. I make all my games from scratch and this version destroys all the other remakes. It is very new.
I like your confidence, but i gotta say Simon’s Quest revamped have better graphics.
You’re also a f*king crook who is charging money for other people’s work.
I don’t see anywhere to download
*edit* nevermind they just don’t show up on mobile I guess
Duh.
Why is this a remake? It looks exactly like the original. It’s like playing with an emulator.
