Esquisse of Violence is the fourth chapter in Castlevania: Harmony of Despair. It is an amalgamation of several paintings and sections of Dracula's Castle from Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. Paintings included include the City of Haze, Nation of Fools, and the Lost Gallery. Castle sections include the Master's Keep, Great Stairway, and Buried Chamber.
Overview[]
In this stage, there are various paintings players can jump into to quickly travel from place to place on the map. Once a player jumps into the panting using the RT Button, the painting will jump from the wall and fly to a special patterned wall in a different place in the stage
This is a reference to how in Portrait of Ruin, players would have to jump into paintings and traverse special maps within said painting.
Hidden item[]
Goemon appears as the hidden item in this chapter. At the room right of the boss's room, there's a platform that juts out. Go there, and Goemon would pop out from the opposite side of the room.
