Brachyura
.

Brachyura is a giant crab from the depths of Castlevania history, a seemingly invincible foe that traps tower-climbing heroes by emerging from below and forcing an upward struggle that can only result in a crushing death. The surprise encounter unfolds into a four-stage battle faced in successive tower heights, each featuring less terrain and requiring more crafty maneuvers by heroes simply trying to survive. Brachyura's attacks remain somewhat consistent throughout: It'll measure the distance before slamming its right claw into the left wall and then spew a storm of acidic bubbles; when angered, it'll begin crashing the same claw into the ceiling, eventually causing its collapse and ushering the action to a greater height. The hero has only precious seconds to reach safe ground before Brachyura gives chase. When at the tower's peak, a rather cramped space, it'll endlessly spew acidic bubbles until the hero figures out that the elevator above might just hold the final solution.
