Castlevania 2 deviates entirely from the linear action format set down in the original. Instead, it is an action/RPG game, as you guide the cursed Simon Belmont through Translyvania in order to conquer the five mansions of Dracula. Though the game can be puzzling at times (the translation is horrendous) and the action isn't very tough, Castlevania 2 is still an immensely fun trek to venture through. And the music is awesome too.
