The game Castlevania II: Simon's Quest does not contain any Stage Maps. However, various world maps have been produced to help players navigate the world.
Design Documents[]
Transylvania Map[]
A map of Transylvania that shows the various locations and paths within the game was produced after the names of the locations was determined. This map would be the basis of the maps that would become available to players.
This map would later become directly available to players when it was included in the The History of Castlevania: Book of the Crescent Moon e-book that was included in the Castlevania Anniversary Collection, which also had an English language translation.
Most of the locations and paths in this map were the same as the final game. Some differences include that there originally was a "Mansion of the Fangs" which was located near the starting town of Jova that was removed. Also, access from the East Bridge to the "Mansion of the Rib" was removed.
